This revenge lasted until noon. After confirming that the enemy was dead, the people spontaneously knelt down and kowtowed to the prince.Just rush to the prince to help them kill their enemies, even if they want their lives.

"Get up, everyone, the wicked have been eliminated, and you should follow the rules from now on. Donate porridge for three days alone, and the three who will participate in the post-disaster recovery can get food according to their salary."

With the approval of the people, the crown prince's order in Wu County was implemented quickly. Due to the lack of manpower in the yamen, the crown prince ordered the people to recommend people with strong moral character to temporarily take up the post of yamen servants to organize work. This also allowed Li Jinxi to discover many talented people.

With the good start of the two counties, the prince and his party have more confidence in the subsequent disaster relief work, and even many people spontaneously hope to join the prince.Regarding this situation, Li Jinxi and others persuaded the people to rebuild their homes with peace of mind first, and it will not be too late to think about it after life and production resume.

Further ahead are the counties where the riots were most serious, and even formed a certain organizational system, where grass fell on the mountains and became bandits, specializing in looting.The prince would respect him as a man if he robbed corrupt officials, but they joined forces with powerful local officials to harass the people, which made banditry rampant and people's hearts turbulent in these areas that were not seriously affected.The crown prince is not a fool, so he can't bring a hundred troops to give away the head. Ten days later, the 2000 troops from the imperial court finally arrived.Seeing that there were no generals among the visitors, the prince knew that it was the good intention of the Yunzhou government to give the prince full leadership.

When all the troops arrived, the crown prince was not in a hurry to let them fight. The generals came from afar to work hard, how could they let the enemy wait for their work at ease.Therefore, the prince asked everyone to rest for two days before fighting, and by the way, use this time to observe the terrain.When he arrived at the foot of Liangzhou Mountain, the prince ordered people to wait on the spot, and he went up to check with his personal guards.

Liangzhou is mountainous, high and rugged, easy to defend but difficult to attack.In normal times, even a few hundred people can beat the shit out of them, so it's time to plan well.The prince led the troops around and heard noises on the mountain, so he quickly squatted in the blind spot of the mountain. Not long after, he saw a group of about a hundred bandits walking down the mountain.The crown prince led the people back the same way, and signaled his subordinates to stay in ambush at the foot of the mountain. When the bandits reached the foot of the mountain, they surrounded them from behind, forming a closing trend, killing most of them before stopping, and captured dozens of people.

There is no need for the crown prince to interrogate them. People who can interrogate them are the most indispensable in the barracks.He put the knife on the prisoner's neck, and the blood on the knife kept dripping down: "What's the situation on Liangzhou Mountain?" The guard wiped the blood on the prisoner's face, "If you think about it carefully, if you I can't say enough to satisfy me—" The knife moved directly to the crotch.

"I said, I said!" The captive looked at the scarred face in horror, and howled about the situation on the mountain. These soldiers were even more like bandits than they were.After prying open a hole, the rest of the captives scrambled to confess and be lenient like beans. Only then did the prince know that there are not many bandit factions on the top of Liangzhou Mountain.Now the leaders of the various hills are gathering for a meeting, as if they have learned that the imperial court will send troops to encircle and suppress them, and they are discussing the matter of forming an alliance.

The prince laughed after hearing this, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, and he said viciously: "These mobs are well-informed, how many of them are there now?"

The prisoner replied tremblingly: "Master Huijun, there are five or six thousand people on several hills."

"So Gu has to thank your village master for giving Gu a chance to catch them all?"

After the questioning, the prisoners were directly killed by the guards. They didn't have time to look at the prisoners, and only two people were left to lead the way. The soldiers divided into three groups and went straight to the headquarters of the other leaders.These leaders brought most of their manpower to Mount Songshan for a meeting, and naturally there were not many manpower left on their own hills. This was all military exploits, waiting for the prince to bring people to harvest.Many of these soldiers had seen blood, and they had no psychological burden to kill. The crown prince and his personal guards did not take credit, and stayed behind to let the Yunzhou garrison kill them happily.

The prince was harvesting the fish that slipped through the net in the rear, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a person running away in a hurry under cover, it must be a big head!

The crown prince motioned to his guards: "Old Zhang, don't let him run away!" It was too late and then soon, Lao Zhang had already dodged to harvest the man's life.

"Three chiefs!" The minions exclaimed, the prince secretly thought that he was really a leader, and then he yelled loudly: "You wait for the leader to die, why don't you just catch him without a fight?" When the minions saw that the leader was dead, they dared not surrender even more, fearing for their lives Mourning here, running around, panicking and rolling down the hillside.Seeing this, the prince rubbed his chin, then turned around and asked Li Jinxi, "Is it so scary?"

"The crown prince's dragon, chapter and phoenix posture is like a heavenly man descending, how can it be scary." Li Jinxi said, it's right to close your eyes and blow it at this time.

Seeing someone rushing to report the letter, the prince was not in a hurry, but instead had the energy to visit the buildings in the cottage.Seeing that there are still many men and women imprisoned in the back mountain, they presumably are slaves of bandits, and some of them are even pregnant.He is not in a hurry to release it, who knows if someone will stab him.The soldiers sent to investigate came back to report that the progress of the other hills was also going well. At this moment, the traps had been set up, waiting to harvest the second wave of heads. The bandits who must have escaped had already notified the fire in the backyard.

As expected by the prince, in the evening, the bandits who knew that their old lair was in jeopardy hurried back. They had their families, women and children here, and they must never be lost.This is also in line with the prince's wishes, just to try the new trap developed by Shen Jiajun.

As the night passed, what lingered in the mountains was not the morning dew but the smell of blood.Soldiers carefully make up the knife according to the requirements to ensure that there is no false death and counterattack. This is all experience on the battlefield.

But in Weihu Village, the village master who was waiting for the leaders to reply saw that there was no news for a long time, and his heart was in a bad mood. I am afraid that there is more danger than good luck, so he quickly recruited military advisers to discuss countermeasures.Said to be a military adviser, but he has only read a few books, and he barely has the nickname "Xiucai" for a scholar.

"Xiucai, now the court soldiers and horses are at the foot of the mountain, what should we do?"

"Don't panic, leader. We have several thousand brothers. According to the reports from the brothers below, we are evenly matched."

"Then what do you think?"

"Chief, there are still many slaves on the mountain, how about we—" the military division whispered in the leader's ear.

"This method is very good!" The leader's eyes were bright, anyway, he stretched his head and retracted his head, it is better to fight.So he immediately sent people to gather the slaves and use them as human shields. He wanted to see if the court could do anything.
