Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 1605 1607 [Recovering Luoyang]

   "Liu Jin is dead, do you still want to fight for him?" Xiang Nan raised Liu Jin's head and shouted at the soldiers.

  The soldiers were still fighting with Jun Bao. Seeing that Liu Jin was dead and his head had been cut off, they all froze there, at a loss for a moment.

   "Kill them and avenge the emperor." At this time, a personal soldier captain shouted loudly, and then took the lead to rush forward.

  When Jun Bao heard this, he kicked immediately, and the long knife that fell on the ground flew up, nailing the captain of the guard on the ground.

  The soldiers became headless chickens and froze on the ground again.

   "Hurry up and grab things, if you're a little later, the gold, silver and jewels of the Liu Mansion will all be snatched away by others." Seeing this, Xiang Nan shouted again.

  Hearing what he said, the soldiers suddenly realized, and then turned their guns one after another, ran into Liu's mansion and started looting.

  Xiang Nan and Jun Bao took the opportunity to leave Liu's mansion, and found Taoist Ling outside the mansion, and saw that he and his people were already waiting outside the mansion.

   "This is the head of Liu Jin, a stray dog. I have already killed him. Now the Liu residence is in chaos, everyone rush in with me." Xiang Nan said immediately.

  When everyone saw Liu Jin's head, they couldn't help but cheer up. They are all common people in the city, and they have been miserably harmed by Liu Jin long ago. It can be said that every family wears mourning, and every family dies.

  They hated him for a long time, and wished they could eat meat and hide it. Therefore, as soon as Taoist Ling instigated it, they followed. Seeing that Liu Jin is dead and the Liu residence is in chaos, this is a good opportunity for revenge.

  So Xiang Nan responded, and everyone immediately took shovels, wooden sticks, kitchen knives, etc., and rushed into Liu's residence after him.

  Xiang Nan took the lead, followed by hundreds of angry people.

  Jun Bao shouted loudly in the city, "Liu Jin has been killed by the real Taiji. Taiji real, save the people, castrate the dog and give the head, and the people are free~"

  …

   Half an hour later, the whole city was a sensation.

  The people in the whole city are skeptical, but in the end there are still more believers.

  Because of the name Taiji Daoist, they have basically heard of it. A few days ago, Liu Jin led an army of 10,000 to suppress the rebellion, but failed to kill him, which shows how powerful he is.

   Now that Liu Jin was killed by him, the common people are naturally willing to believe that it is true.

  Even Liu Jin's confidants, who were guarding the city, led their troops to come after hearing the news.

  They were not concerned about Liu Jin's safety.

  Because Liu Jin's real confidant is the Eighth Deputy Sword Commander and the Captain of the Personal Guard. And these generals who defended the city were promoted after the Eighth Deputy Saber Command was gone. Originally, there were not a few days, how much loyalty could he have to Liu Jin.

   They came with troops, mainly to grab things. Grabbing gold, silver, jewelry, food, grass and military supplies will greatly increase their strength. At that time, whether it is to continue to defend Luoyang City, or become a bandit, or raise the banner of rebellion, it will be of great benefit.

   It's just that their strength is worse than Liu Jin.

  Jun Bao threw a tile casually, and knocked them off the horse.

  After losing restraint, those soldiers saw everyone in Liu's mansion looting their belongings. Their hands were quick and slow, and they no longer cared about the safety of these generals, and rushed into Liu's mansion to follow suit.

  …

   This chaotic situation lasted for two hours, and it didn't stop until the sky brightened.

  The reason for the rest is because after dawn, the common people came to the Liu Mansion to watch the excitement.

  Xiang Nan took the opportunity to reveal his identity and passed Liu Jin's head around.

   Seeing that the dog was really bestowed with the head, the common people worshiped him one after another.

  Xiang Nan took the opportunity to organize the people to take over Luoyang City. The villagers are responsible for distributing the food. And organize the young and strong, with weapons, to capture all the officers and soldiers who are still looting in Liu's mansion.

   "The gold, silver, treasures, food, grass, and military supplies of the Liu Mansion are all looted by the people. They belong to the people of Luoyang. They cannot be taken away by these rebels." Xiang Nan shouted loudly.

  The common people naturally responded one after another.

   All their property was looted by Liu Jin, all the money in Liu's mansion was their money, all the food in Liu's mansion was their food.

  These rebels usually bully them a lot, now that Liu Jin is dead, they still want to steal their money, how can it be so cheap.

   Therefore, under Xiang Nan's organization, everyone is united and can break gold. The rebels, on the other hand, are busy grabbing things and regard each other as enemies, so it can be said that they are in a state of disunity.

   Therefore, under the leadership of Xiang Nan, the people united as one, and finally subdued the rebels.

  Subsequently, Xiang Nan distributed the tens of thousands of shi of grain hoarded by the Liu Mansion to the common people one after another.

  As for the gold, silver and jewelry, Xiang Nan planned to use all of them to buy food and then distribute it to the people.

  Because his prestige is high enough, the people trust him a lot, so there is no doubt about it, and no mention of thank you.

  After distributing money and food, Xiang Nan organized young men to guard the city gate. After all, the city gate is now empty, once the rebels attack, the people will suffer again.

  Because of his high popularity, the people trust Xiang Nan. Moreover, in troubled times, they also need the protection of the strong, so the two hit it off.

   From capturing the Liu Mansion, quelling the rebellion, to distributing food and maintaining order, it can be said that there are thousands of clues. But fortunately, Xiang Nan has a very high reputation and has a lot of management experience, so at night, everything was finally arranged.

  Luoyang City has also recovered a bit of style.

  …

  Subsequently, the news that Xiang Nan got rid of Liu Jin and recovered Luoyang City was spread.

  For a while, many rebels sent people, hoping that Xiang Nan could join them, or form an alliance with them, or directly hand over Luoyang City to them.

  On the one hand, Luoyang City is tall, allowing them to effectively stop the attacks of officers and soldiers; on the other hand, Luoyang City has a population of hundreds of thousands, which is also convenient for them to recruit troops.

  However, Xiang Nan rejected them one by one.

   This made the rebels naturally dissatisfied, but at this moment, they did not dare to turn against Xiang Nan. After all, Xiang Nan could even defeat Liu Jin's tens of thousands of troops, so what are these rebels?

  Xiang Nan then organized a young and strong group, and expelled some remnants and defeated generals around Luoyang City. Taking advantage of the mild weather at the moment, hurry up and resume farming.

  Because, now Luoyang is surrounded by rebels. They attack the government and break the county, and separate one side, which cuts off business travel and makes it difficult to circulate materials.

   Especially the most important food, from the beginning of the year to now, Luoyang's food has increased tenfold.

  In the past, a stone of white rice cost only one or two taels of silver, but now the price of a stone of white rice has reached thirteen taels. People can't afford rice, so they can only eat bran.

  Although Xiang Nan seized tens of thousands of shi of grain in the Liu Mansion, they were evenly distributed, and each person was only a few dozen catties. Even if you eat frugally, you will only eat for a month at most.

  If there is no new food, the people in the city can only flee from famine, or starve to death.

  That's why Xiang Nan organized the people to resume farming. While it is still September, plant some radishes, cabbage, sorghum, millet, etc., which can fill their stomachs at least.

In order to prevent people from working abroad and not working hard, Xiang Nan also adopted the agricultural production cooperative system of the year, dividing the brigade by the street as a unit, and the village elders served as the team leader, and the work points were recorded. After the grain was harvested, they were divided according to the work points food.

   More work, more pay, less work, less pay, no work, no gain. The common people also know that there will be no food in the future if there is no farming now, so they all responded positively.

  For a while, Luoyang City, with a radius of dozens of miles, became a hot spot for vigorous construction.
