Three Kingdoms Swept the World II

Chapter 398

The Black Mountain Army suffered a disastrous defeat and was unable to control Changshan County. The leaders of various ministries had no intention of going down the mountain. They called the bandit soldiers stationed in various counties of Changshan to return to the mountain.

Zhang Yan, who lost the support of the leaders, was also powerless against Qin Feng, so he also chose to return to the mountain.

Ever since, the remaining Black Mountain Army began to withdraw from Changshan County in an all-round way.

It has been ten years since Zhang Yan became the commander-in-chief of the Black Mountain Bandit Army, and his ideas have deeply influenced the Black Mountain Bandit Army.The Black Bandit Army is thus different from ordinary bandits. Although they also rob people, they will not kill them all.However, the Black Mountain bandit army hated the "landlord" who forced them into the mountain.

The retreating Heishan bandit army raised their butcher knives, and all the "landlords" in Changshan County had their homes ransacked and killed.

With the retreat of the Black Mountain bandit army, Qin Feng easily conquered the 11 occupied counties.

And Qin Feng didn't stop, and went straight to the ancient northern mountain Hengshan, which is Changshan.

The Feihu Trail, one of the Eight Taihang Trails in the Taihang Mountains, is in Changshan.

As a natural danger to rely on, Taihang Mountain is not just a lonely mountain range, but a vast highland thousands of miles from north to south, and hundreds or even hundreds of miles from east to west.Moreover, there are only eight important east-west exits on this precipitous mountain plateau that stretches for thousands of miles. That is to say, because of the river cutting, there is only one east-west canyon every hundreds of miles. The ancients called it "Xing".

Feihu Trail, also known as Feihuxing, also known as "Wangduguan", is located at the mouth of the canyon of Hengshan Mountain at the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain.Starting from Laiyuan, Hebei, passing through Shangzhuang, Chadao, and Beikou to Yu County.

Mount Heng, the ancient northern mountain, was also known as Mount Chang in order to avoid the taboo of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty Liu Heng.

Changshan, also known as Mount Heng, covers an area of ​​more than 100 square kilometers. The main peak, Tianfengling, is more than 2000 meters above sea level.

Feihu Trail is the gateway to Tianfengling, also known as Feihu Ancient Road, it is the only passage leading to Tianfengling.

The reason why Qin Feng went after Zhang Yan alone was because the king was captured first when he captured the thief, and after Zhang Yan was dealt with, the other leaders of the Black Mountain Army were easily captured.

At the beginning of March, Zhang Yan, Zhou Cang, and Liao Hua retreated to Tianfengling.

In the gathering hall, Zhang Yan was physically and mentally haggard.

"Commander, the spies came to report that Qin Feng's soldiers and horses have entered Yu County. It seems that he is not going to let us go." Zhou Cang said.

Zhang Yan was exhausted, so he pulled himself together and said, "The food captured from the foot of the mountain is enough to support our army for several years. Two leaders, please trouble the two leaders to guard "Wangduguan". Fu Mokai, Qin Feng can't enter the mountain, our army has no worries. Then distribute the food we get to the people in the mountains as soon as possible."

"I'm confused, I need to think about it... the affairs in the mountains depend on the two leaders." Zhang Yan got up and saluted.

Zhou Cang and Liao Hua hurriedly returned the gift, Zhou Cang said: "The commander is working hard for the future of the Black Mountain Army, rest at ease, leave the affairs in the mountains to me and Liao Hua."

Zhou Cang and Liao Hua left Juyi Hall hand in hand.

After leaving the hall, Liao Hua looked at the clouds in the sky, and said coldly: "The Wangdu Pass in front of the Dashuai Feihu Path is the most dangerous mountain pass in the world. The pass is formed naturally, and both sides of the pass are more than twenty feet vertical. The cliff is difficult for birds to cross."

Zhou Cang said ruthlessly: "No matter how many times the officers and soldiers come, no one can step through the closed gate, and Qin Zijin is no exception. He dares to come and visit the closed gate, and he will definitely let the whole army die in the closed gate to avenge the previous great revenge."

Ever since, Zhou Cang and Liao Hua shared the same hatred and led the army to Wangduguan to strengthen the defense.In addition, they did not forget to distribute the food and grass they got to the people in the mountains.

On the other hand, Qin Feng led the army into Yu County.

The people of the whole city came to welcome him, and the people were liberated, but there was no joy, instead they were full of despair.They fell to the ground and shouted together: "Master Hou, save us."

When Qin Feng climbed up and stretched his arms to signal, the crowd fell silent. He said: "Folks, all your food has been taken away by the black bandits, and you have lost your rations. This Marquis already knows about this matter. This Marquis has sent an order Changshan County, now, tens of thousands of people in Changshan County have taken action to deliver food and grass. Not only Yu County, but other counties in Changshan County will also be rescued."

The people thought they would die of famine this time, but they were ecstatic when they heard the news, and they elected the oldest old man in the county as a representative.The old man leaned on a walking stick and tremblingly came to Qin Feng. Seeing that he wanted to salute, Qin Feng hurriedly said: "Old man, there is no need to be too polite."

Unexpectedly, the old man bowed down stubbornly, and said: "The old man has lived for 81 years. He has experienced 11 emperors of the Han Dynasty since "He Di". He has never seen such a benevolent official as Lord Hou." The old man wiped his tears and said: "Those Powerful people only know how to exploit us."

The old man wiped away his tears and said excitedly: "The old man can't speak, but the old man still wants to say something on behalf of the people of Yu County. From now on, Lord Hou will be our reborn parents. We will not listen to anyone in the future. We Just listen to Lord Hou."

The old man struggled to twist his old body, and said to tens of thousands of people, "Do you think so?"

The people were so excited that they all kowtowed to the ground and shouted together: "Master Hou is our reborn parents. From now on, Master Hou will let us go east, and we will never go west."

Facing the sincerity of the people, Qin Feng did not get carried away. He helped the old man and said sincerely: "It is Qin Feng's incompetence that made the villagers suffer."

Just one sentence, the people all cried.Although they have suffered great disasters, they are full of hope for the future at this moment.Because from then on, they are the people under the rule of the "great savior" of the people.

Xun Yu, Xu Shu, and Tian Feng had sour noses. They had only seen such a scene in books, but they never expected to see it again in this troubled world in their lifetime.

Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and the others became excited, and they were full of strength.

Half an hour later, in the chamber.

Qin Feng thought to himself, "Before the Black Mountain bandit army left, they still did a good thing. They made all the local tyrants and evil gentry gossip."

Dian Wei Shicheng said, "My lord, I am not at all opposed to helping the people with food, but my lord, what shall we eat in the future?"

Qin Feng grinned, "Food."

What Dian Wei said is not unreasonable. Qin Feng has stored enough food for 50 troops for a year. Although he already owns a county, he loves the people and his tax revenue is much lower than that of other princes.This time, the disaster victims in the county will be rescued. As the refugees return to their homes, the rescue population will reach as high as 60.

Xun Yu came out and said, "My lord, the summer grain will be harvested in one month, and if something happens to the big clans in various places, the grain they get can greatly support our army. Why don't we implement it in the whole county after harvesting the summer grain?" People's cooperative "system."

Xu Shu and Tian Feng nodded.

Qin Feng looked distressed, Tian Feng came out and said: "My lord, this is also an expedient measure. The people will definitely understand and support you."

Before, only the people in Changshan County implemented Qin Feng's cooperative system, and after the system, they had their own land.People in other counties have no land at all, and the land is all in the hands of the gentry and the government.

Now that the gentry were all killed by the Black Mountain bandits, all the food on the land belonged to Qin Feng.

The land in the county, even when the gentry taxed it in the past, was enough for the people to make a living. If it was not the case, the people would have starved to death long ago.Therefore, although Qin Feng rescued the people, he only needs to collect rent for one season according to the gentry's rent collection method, which not only replenishes the original inventory, but also makes more income.

Therefore, because of the difficult start, Qin Feng had to close the season like this, so he consulted with the people.

Without Qin Feng, the people would starve to death this month.What's more, it's only one season, the people's eyes are sharp, how can they not be able to tell the truth.So things went smoothly unexpectedly, and the people not only agreed, but also actively requested that all the food be handed over to Qin Feng every season, they only need to fill their stomachs.

"It's enough to fill your stomach..." Qin Feng sighed after learning about it. While he was gratified that the people supported him, he also wanted to lead the people to live a good life.

Xun Yu and the others also sighed, but they also knew that it was Qin Feng's popular prestige that made the people trust him and support him without reservation.Since history, there are only a handful of people who can do this.

As a result, Qin Feng was able to have no worries, and the entire Qin Group became more in harmony with the common people, just like the fish and water relationship of our army in later generations.He took out the grain in stock and rescued the people of the whole county.Thanks to Qin Feng's strong foundation, he was able to rescue 60 people.

Such behavior immediately consolidated his rule in Changshan County.After hearing about this incident, the people all over the world longed for Qin Feng to come to their place even more, which raised Qin Feng's prestige in the world to another level.

……

The battle in Jizhou spread to Chenliu.

"You really deserve to be my brother Zijin." Cao Cao was shocked and praised.

"Champion Hou is really what the people want, and my senior brother is really resourceful. Together, 3000 people have wiped out [-] black mountain bandits!" Guo Jia also praised, and said: "In another month, the summer grain will be harvested, soldiers and horses It has already been practiced, and all aspects of preparation can be in place.”

Cheng Yu said: "My lord, you can go first to appeal to the world and call on the heroes of the world to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and you will be able to take the lead in people's favor."

Cao Cao followed his words and trained troops in Chenliuda.Later, Zhang Miao, who was rated as one of the "Eight Cooks" by scholars in the world, came to vote, bringing a lot of money and food to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's momentum became even greater.Eight chefs are chefs, not chefs.A cook can save people with wealth.

Yuan Shao was in the Bohai Sea, and Liu Bei was in the plains, and they were also training their troops.

……

At this time, Qin Feng had already entered Feihu Path.

He has already controlled Changshan County, and if he can take Qianli Taihang into his pocket again, it will be of great significance to his future strategy of fighting for hegemony in the north.And now that the Black Mountain bandit army has been defeated, it is an excellent time.

On March 3, the first year of Chuping, the Qin army entered the Taihang Mountains.

Taihang Mountain is full of giant trees that have been around for hundreds of years and thousands of years.This is more complicated than the terrain of later generations.

Qin Feng made his village in the valley ten miles away from Wangdu Pass at Feihujing Pass, and set up Luchai five miles in the middle as an outpost.

When he led the civil servants under his command to "Wangdu Pass" to check the terrain, he was shocked by the dangerous pass.

It was the first time for Xun Yu, Tian Feng, and Xu Shu to see the natural pass in the mountains.

Tian Feng's face turned pale suddenly, "The danger of this pass is several times more dangerous than the Xiongguan Hulao!"

Xun Yu and Xu Shu's faces also turned pale, because they realized that breaking through such a formidable pass was more difficult than ascending to the sky.
