Chapter 772: Mobilizing Peicheng It was noon when the army arrived at Peicheng. Fang Jie ordered the army to rest outside Peicheng, but did not build a camp. It can be seen that he did not intend to stay in Peicheng for a long time. As the ancestral land of the Great Shang Kingdom and the place where the Murong family emerged, Peicheng has been endowed with many myths and legends, but there are no legendary gods to protect it. Soon after the founding of the Shang Kingdom, legends about the Murong family being descendants of gods began to spread. Someone once said that when the founding emperor of the Shang Dynasty was born, auspicious signs appeared in the sky, and a dragon hovered over Murong's house for a long time and never left. Some people say that when the child was born, a big red star fell straight into the courtyard of Murong's family, and the red light illuminated half of the sky. Others say that a god wearing golden armor appeared that day, standing in the clouds and looking down at the earth. These myths are actually lies. If you just look through the history books, you can find dozens of similar stories. Almost every dynasty has one, and there is definitely more than one. As for any figure who can leave a strong mark in the annals of history, which one does not have a mysterious and mysterious story behind it? After the city was broken, the Black Flag Army took control of the Murong family's ancestral home and the palace. Although there were no Murong family members in the ancestral home, none of them were injured, and the Black Flag Army soldiers did not even enter. Soldiers blocked several nearby streets, and it was said that any scoundrels who came here to steal something were executed on the spot. Some people don¡¯t understand why Fang Jie is so cruel to other wealthy families and why he ordered the protection of the Murong family¡¯s ancestral home. People who don't understand don't know the man named Big Dog who used to be by Fang Jie's side. Qin Yuan and Xiahou Baichuan led their generals to greet him at the door. The soldiers of the Black Flag Army burst into cheers when Fang Jie entered the city. This is the third big city that the Black Flag Army has captured, and it has only been half a month since the troops were launched against Qingyuan City. This kind of speed can be described as devastating. Yang Qinyan silently watched the tall and tall young man enter Peicheng amidst cheers. She did not let Fang Jie introduce herself to his subordinates. She didn't know why, but she suddenly wanted to take a closer look as a bystander. Look at this man named Fang Jie and see how he succeeded. The Emperor Tianyou of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Yi, had a very contradictory attitude towards Fang Jie, so contradictory that even the emperor himself did not understand it. He always felt that Fang Jie, a young man, could be used and reused. But he always abandoned Fang Jie at certain critical moments. Maybe even the emperor himself didn't understand what he was worried about. But Yang Qinyan didn¡¯t know what her father was thinking. At that time, she was just a carefree princess. For example, Wei Xiting, who came a day ahead of Fang Jie, reported the known situation while walking. Because Fang Jie's pace was relatively long, he had to trot to keep up. A group of warriors wearing iron armor followed behind, making Fang Jie at the front even more majestic. "General Qin and General Xiahou restrained their subordinates very strictly, so no soldiers harassed the people. The local security was also maintained. Although the people were frightened, no one made trouble. The original officials in Peicheng were all detained in the government office, and the subordinates were The number of people has been checked, and the treasury and granary have not yet been counted, but it is almost over." Fang Jie nodded. He knew how to lead an army and how to win over the people in the shortest time. He is not one of those heroes with deep roots. He cannot gain the support of those wealthy families in the shortest possible time, so he chooses to stand on the other side. Any well-established wealthy family will not easily choose to take sides, let alone give everything to support an outsider. But the people can. As long as you let the people feel your goodwill and the benefits you bring to them, they will support you, or at least they will not stab you in the back. Fang Jie has neither the time nor the interest to win over those big businessmen in a lowly manner. He is more willing to let the common people benefit. The soldiers did not take advantage of the chaos because they did not need it. There are many examples of the inability to control soldiers to cause chaos during victory, but so far, such a thing has never happened to the Black Flag Army. That is because of Fang Jie's harshness and generosity. Strictness is military discipline, generosity is reward. In order to stabilize the place he conquered as soon as possible, Fang Jie chose to let the people support him when it was impossible to get the support of the aristocratic family. The most powerful method was to divide the land and divide the money. Which of the big families that were massacred was not extremely wealthy? The army always keeps half of the money and food, and the remaining half is distributed to the local people. This is to win people's hearts, there is nothing to hide. As for the half left by the army, part of the reward was given to the generals, and most of it was evenly distributed to each soldier. So it can be said that the soldiers of the Black Flag Army are the richest people among all armies in the world. Fang Jiehui faction?The amount of the money will be counted and announced, and the soldiers' share will be known in advance. In this way, everyone can calculate how much they will get. ¡°Then Fangjiehui will send people to send these things back and hand them over to the local government for distribution to the soldier¡¯s home. People from the Xiao Riding School will keep an eye on the whole process to prevent local officials from embezzling. Fang Jie has formulated this set of rules from the beginning and strictly follows them. In his words, a man cannot stand without trust. If he wants to command an army well, his subordinates must make the soldiers absolutely believe in themselves. There is no doubt that Fang Jie did it. However, such a reward system can only be implemented by the Black Flag Army, and it is impossible for any other army to do so. The spoils gained are generally hoarded by leaders for development. The reason why the Black Flag Army can reward the loot almost 100% is because there is a huge organization running behind Fang Jie, and the Black Flag Army never withdraws money. This organization is known for its goods that spread all over the world. In fact, the Black Flag Army and Huotong Tianxiaxing complement each other. Huotong Tianxiaxing provides strong support to the Black Flag Army, and the expanded territory of the Black Flag Army is a new market for Huotong Tianxia to dominate business. When the civil strife of the Great Sui Dynasty began, no one paid attention to this young man named Fang Jie. No one would have thought that a few years later, it would be this most inconspicuous little man who would develop at the most astonishing speed. Perhaps, this is the most admirable thing about Sanjin Hou Wu Yiyi. He saw Fang Jie's potential earlier than anyone else. "Take me to Murong's house." He ordered, seemingly not hearing clearly the figures reported by Wei Xiting. ?¡ ?¡ ?¡ The Murong family members would not show any gratitude towards Fang Jie, and certainly would not be stupid enough to show their strength. Speaking of which, no one with pure Murong blood can be found in Peicheng City. Ever since Yongzhou was established as the capital of the Grand Council, this place has only a symbolic meaning. Before Fang Jie arrived, everyone in the Murong family's ancestral residence had already fallen outside and bowed to greet him. When he walked to the door, Fang Jie suddenly changed his mind. He glanced at the plaque hanging on the door of Murong's house, was silent for a while, then turned and left. Because he suddenly felt that the people here actually had nothing to do with big dogs. Those who stood at the door to greet him either pretended to be humble and respectful or indifferent. With so many masks, how could there be any trace of the big dog? Only then did Fang Jie realize that what he missed was just that sloppy man, not the surname Murong. The big dog's surname is Murong, but he is just a big dog and has nothing to do with Murong. "Wei Xiting" "My subordinate is here" "You are responsible for everything in the three cities. From today on, you will post notices and recruit new soldiers. According to the rules of the Black Flag Army, it is better to be in short supply than indiscriminately." "Here" Wei Xiting agreed and followed Fang Jie step by step. behind. "The rotation at the Suzaku Mountain camp has ended, and the second batch of reinforcements will head south. Not only do these three cities need to be managed well, but they will also be a place to replenish supplies for the reinforcements after a while. When the army arrives in Yongzhou, there will be advance notice. "You." "Please note, my subordinates." Fang Jie hummed and walked towards the city lord's mansion without saying anything more. Everyone could see that he seemed to have lost interest. When the Black Flag Army first established its camp in Zhuque Mountain, it recruited a large number of new soldiers to open up wasteland and farm in the fertile fields southwest of Zhuque Mountain. At first, Sun Kaidao was in charge of this matter. Later, Sun Kaidao was gradually isolated from the power system of Zhuque Mountain. This matter was handled by Dugu Wenxiu. Later, Dugu Wenxiu was transferred to Nanyan, and the military was directly responsible for this matter. It is said that after Cui Zhongzhen, who was seriously injured in Xinyang City, returned to the Zhuque Mountain camp, the first thing he did was to take care of the affairs in the field. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?? A large number of new soldiers will be added to the field and rotation will begin. The troops that were capable of participating in the war came out from the field camp, were reorganized and then returned to the Zhuque Mountain camp for distribution. Most of the troops who stayed at the Zhuque Mountain camp were transferred to the south. Fang Jie was fighting in the south during these days, but he did not let go of everything in the Zhuque Mountain camp. There were originally more than 50,000 troops left to guard the camp, plus a select group of new recruits. This new force was Fang Jie's second batch of reinforcements. The first batch of reinforcements was transferred directly back from Xinyang by Dugu Wenxiu. It seems that this kind of rotation is just something that has been planned a long time ago, but the rotation at this time has an intriguing meaning. In other words, there are no veterans left in the Zhuque Mountain camp now, and those who have been replaced are all trained in the field.Soldiers. And in order to allocate new recruits, the original structure of the Zhuque Mountain Camp was disrupted and reorganized. Each troop was assigned a certain number of recruits. On the surface, this is understandable. The mixed formation of veterans and recruits is to allow the recruits to quickly adapt to the battlefield. But there is one detail that is particularly eye-catching, that is, many of the recruits are actually assigned to mid-level officer positions, which was rarely seen in the past. So, those who were interested saw something extraordinary. After the rotation, the original generals of the Zhuque Mountain Camp no longer had the soldiers and horses in their hands. The troops transferred to the south this time included a large number of new soldiers. In other words, the generals were not as able to command their troops as they used to be. What makes people feel even more profound is that almost all the generals who stayed at Zhuque Mountain were transferred to the south, and Fang Jie ordered that the generals exchange leadership. Although a group of them stayed at the Zhuque Mountain Camp, their military power was gone. It was at this time that people began to suspect that Cui Zhongzhen really returned to the Zhuque Mountain Camp because of a serious injury? If he was really seriously injured, how could he arrange these things so well and quietly? As soon as Fang Jie's military order arrived, Cui Zhongzhen immediately began to make arrangements, and the army rotation was completed in a short period of time. This speed has to be said to be shocking. I¡¯m afraid only Fang Xie can understand what¡¯s going on here. Of course, there are two people who understand, and that is Dugu Wenxiu and Cui Zhongzhen who have been handling this matter. Luo Weiran, who was originally in charge of the Zhuque Mountain camp, was invited out of the mountain by Fang Jie, and together with Chen Bishan and Zhuge Wuyin, they led the army southward by land. Cui Zhongzhen has taken over everything in Zhuque Mountain. The battlefield in the south is turbulent, and there seems to be an undercurrent in the camp in the north. Under the calm, no one understood what Fang Jie was thinking about. Maybe some people understand, so they start to feel uneasy.
