Chapter 708: Three Strikes [Southern Song Zhao Gou] World

Although the people below the city shouted to close the gate, it was too late. [Long-legged Dragon] Zhou Bi stabbed wildly with his steel fork, [Shan Dujian] Shan Shiqi had already pulled out a large axe from his waist, and with a few "clangs", he cut the iron chain on the gate.

Dropping the axe, Shan Shiqi picked up his iron stick and swung it. With one swing of the stick, three or five Yellow Turban soldiers were knocked flying.

The two men guarded the city gate for a moment, and welcomed the soldiers who came later to enter the pass. Then, Zhou Bi ordered thirty to fifty people to enter the city gate to welcome the Liangshan soldiers who came later. Shan Shiqi led the troops and rushed up the wall along the horse path.

Bian Xi was leading his confidants down the city when the two met each other. Shan Shiqi chopped him on the head with the long stick in his hand, and Bian Xi also used a meteor hammer.

The soldiers, each holding a weapon, stood on both sides, leaving an open space in the middle.

After ten rounds, Shi Qian had led the Liangshan soldiers into the pass. Shi Qian shouted in surprise, "Bian Xi, if you don't surrender now, when will you surrender?"

The shouts from inside the pass were deafening. Bian Xi looked around and found that except for the more than 300 trusted men behind him, the rest of the soldiers had already been killed by the Liangshan army.

With a sigh, Bian Xi threw down the meteor hammer in his hand and knelt on the ground.

When the other soldiers saw this, they also dropped their weapons. Shan Shiqi ordered them to tie up all the people. He had people shout on the top of the city wall: "Bian Xi has surrendered. The rest of you will not be killed if you surrender!"

After capturing Sishui Pass, Shan Shiqi and the other two were all delighted.

The soldiers inside the pass, along with their families, were escorted by the Liangshan soldiers, packed up their belongings, and were sent down the pass. Shi Qian and Wen Zhishang led a thousand soldiers and escorted everyone back to Chaocheng County.

According to the original plan, the families of these people were to be scattered around Chaocheng County and settled down. The young men were recruited as imperial guards and sent to the Liangshan Prefecture camp for training.

As for Sishui Pass, Shan Shiqi and Zhou Bi will lead 5,000 soldiers to garrison there from now on.

With so many people in Chaocheng, all the abandoned villages could be settled down, land and houses could be distributed, and able-bodied men could be recruited into the army, so naturally there would be no trouble.

Zhao Zhen was in Qingcheng Palace, so he naturally received the news, which was different from the past.

World Log:

Resist the world of [Yellow Turban Bian Xi at Sishui Pass], occupy Sishui Pass, and Lord Bian Xi surrender.

Big win.

Liang State’s reputation +1, politics +1, economy +1, military +2, culture +1.

Dragon Energy +1.

Luck +300.

Dragon Qi, another dragon Qi. This was the fourth dragon Qi Zhao Zhen had obtained. Zhao Zhen had already figured out the function of this dragon Qi.

In the [Floating Continent], one strand of dragon energy makes one a lord, two strands of dragon energy makes one a king, and five strands of dragon energy makes one an emperor. It may seem like just a title, but it has many benefits. The most important point is that the luck generated by the country every year, with the same land and population, the empire has 20% more luck than the kingdom.

For the current Liang State, the gap is tens of thousands of points.

However, killing or capturing hostile lords will not gain dragon energy, so they must surrender.

The price is that the lord who loses the dragon energy will never be able to break through the level and attributes, and his life span will be greatly shortened. This is why few lords are willing to surrender.

Not even one day later, Shi Qian brought Bian Xi back to Liangshan County.

Zhao Zhen naturally had to see Bian Xi, the first lord to surrender. After hearing that he had no interest in military affairs, Zhao Zhen discussed with everyone and appointed him as the Tongpan of Xingren Prefecture. As for his family and property, Liang State did not take a penny and returned them all to Bian Xi. Only the public treasury of Sishui Pass was confiscated, and food and fodder were mobilized and military equipment was stored to enable Bian Xi to sustain for a year.

As for the more than 30 monks of Zhenguo Temple, it was naturally not a good idea to leave them in front of the pass. Zhao Zhen and others thought about it and personally met with the abbot Pu Jing.

Afterwards, all the monks of Zhenguo Temple were sent to Dongchuan Prefecture.

Guan Sheng's official document mentioned that the people of Dali believed in Buddhism from top to bottom. Zhao Zhen had ordered the Right Street Monk Record Office to select eminent monks from various temples, led by Yuan Hui from the Lotus Temple, to go to Shicheng Prefecture to spread Buddhism. Dongchuan Prefecture was the right place to send this group of people from Zhenguo Temple.

With these monks around, and the government's partiality, the local monks were forced to get close to the government. These local monks were also registered with the [Youjie Monk Records Office].

In the two states seized from Dali, it was common for monks to hold official positions, but this was naturally unacceptable in Liang.

You can only choose between staying in the temple to practice Buddhism or returning to secular life and taking up an official position.

For some reason these people chose monks. Zhao Zhen was not polite. After the monks made their choice, he ordered the Buddhist temples to exchange ideas and dispatched half of the personnel to Jingji Road and Fujian Road.

Han monks were selected and brought with them Buddhist scriptures to join various temples.

For this reason, some monks who were unwilling to accept the situation launched two small-scale rebellions. Guan Sheng was ruthless in this regard. The monks who participated in the rebellion were immediately executed, and the monks in the same temple were also exiled to Fujian.

The barbarian tribesmen who participated in the rebellion were sent to various mines and salt fields in Fujian Province.

Without the cooperation of the chieftains, and now that the tribes were mixed together, the two rebellions did not cause any waves. These surrendered chieftains were now in Huaiyuan Posthouse, which was managed by Yan Qing, the former Xingren Prefecture's militia commander, learning etiquette and waiting to meet Liang Wang Zhao Zhen.

In August, Zhao Zhen still launched a war to invade the world of Zhao Gou of Southern Song Dynasty.

The world of [Zhao Gou of Southern Song Dynasty] at this time was very different from the previous time.

In addition to the [Liang State Zhao Zhen] world, the [Jin State Wanyan Sheng] world also invaded the Southern Song Dynasty half a month ago. Jin Wushu led 300,000 troops to invade the Southern Song Dynasty world. For a time, the northern border of the Southern Song Dynasty, from Lizhou Road in the west to Huainan East Road in the east, was in a state of emergency.

Zhao Gou in Liangzhe Road only wanted to escape, so he sent ministers who advocated peace to the Jin camp to negotiate peace.

The war faction was busy fighting, while the peace faction was busy ceding territory and paying compensation. Zhao Gou was trembling with fear in Lin'an Prefecture.

After [Zhao Zhen of Liang State] launched the invasion, the world was still connected with the lost Fujian Road. Zhao Gou gritted his teeth and spent tens of thousands of luck to adjust the access point and changed it to Huainan East Road.

When the two worlds collided, the situation in Huainan East Road suddenly became confusing.

The armies of the Three Kingdoms gathered here.

The main force, the Fujian Army General Manager [Jade Unicorn] Lu Junyi, and the military supervisor and military strategist Zhu Wu, had already deployed their troops and were waiting in Jian'an to attack Jianzhou.

After the two worlds were connected, there was still a fog outside Jian'an County, and the two knew that something had happened.

Lu Junyi sent out pigeon messages to inform the court, and at the same time sent out soldiers to explore the invasion route.

In Rui'an Prefecture of Liangzhe Road, the northernmost army was led by [Flowery Monk] Lu Zhishen, [Subduing the Tiger] Wu Song, [Stone General] Shi Yong, [Tiger Claw] Yan Liusi, who led 5,000 people from the [Wuwei Camp], and [Taihu Dragon] Bu Qing and [Curly Tiger] Ni Yun, who led 100 large and small warships and 3,000 naval officers and soldiers.

The six people's mission was not to attack, but to guard against attacks from Taizhou and Chuzhou. After Lu Junyi captured Jianzhou, they would send troops to attack Chuzhou, which was sandwiched between the two states, together with Lu Junyi.

Although the plan was good, everything changed because of Zhao Gou's adjustment.
