"Gao Daniu, Li Yanxi, you two chase after the remaining enemies and take in the defeated soldiers. Don't let them harass the place."
"Sang Wen, come, clean up the battlefield, disarm, and take in the prisoners of war. Allow them to keep their personal belongings and give first aid to the injured. "
"Li Shuwei, organize the militia and march in the direction of Jinzhou. Prepare to occupy Jinzhou City."
"Cavalry Company, follow me. We are going to occupy the first big city of the Revolutionary Army."
Li Rubai died in battle and the Ming Army completely collapsed. The scattered soldiers couldn't escape the organized search and surrendered one after another. Most of the generals of the Ming Army escaped. Those who couldn't escape were those who were weak and had no ability to resist.
As for the generals of the Ming Army who used all their abilities to escape, Zhou Qingfeng chased after them like a merciless fire. He killed every one he caught. He didn't accept the surrender of the middle and senior officers of the enemy. These people were all scourges if left alive.
Li Rubai took more than two thousand people and ran for five days to reach the wooden station. However, it only took Zhou Qingfeng two hours to chase from the wooden station to Jinzhou. At this moment, the defense of Jinzhou City was completely empty. All the troops in the city were pulled to the wooden station. When he led the troops, the few old soldiers guarding the city gate ran away and easily handed over the city to him.
As soon as Zhou Qingfeng entered the city, he immediately closed the city gate. He caught a few bailiffs on the street and interrogated them about the whereabouts of the remaining officials in the city. After he asked for their names and addresses, he immediately went from house to house to arrest people and put them all in jail to wait for investigation and interrogation.
The arrival of the Revolutionary Army caused the entire Jinzhou to fall into great panic. There was no one on the streets and the shops were closed. No one could figure out Zhou Qingfeng's background. Everyone only knew that two hundred years after the city was built, the owner of the city had changed.
That night, Li Shuwei took two thousand organized militia and Zhou Qingfeng's staff to Jinzhou City. The moment this army entered the city, Zhou Qingfeng, who was standing on the city wall, felt his body tremble slightly. There was a faint feeling of flesh and blood connecting with the city. It was very magical.
"Shu Wei, I'll leave two thousand militiamen to you. Three thousand refugees from Lu Shun will also be under your command. The Imperial Guard, follow me. "Zhou Qingfeng was about to set off again after seeing Li Shuwei.
"Where are you going?" Li Shuwei asked.
"I'm going to attack Fuzhou and Gaizhou."
"But we only have so few people now. It's already good enough that we have Gold Province. Our management skills can't keep up. "
"Fu Prefecture and Gai Prefecture are both extremely empty. The cost of taking them down now is the lowest. As for the management, it's the simplest. We only control the city and execute all the aristocrats and clans. We let the peasants live and manage themselves. "
"Kill all the local forces?"
"If we don't kill them, are we going to wait for them to rebel? A revolution is not a dinner party. How can there be a revolution without bloodshed? Instead of waiting for those fellows to stir up trouble, it's better to kill them all. "
"You … are ruthless enough!"
"We can announce that all the land belongs to the 'Revolutionary Army', deprive the landlords of their land ownership, and prohibit the sale. Then we can distribute the land according to the number of people. The peasants who cultivate the land of the 'Revolutionary Army' will not be charged rent for two years. After two years, the rent will not exceed 30%. Believe me, as long as we don't mess around, the people can live a good life. "
Li Shuwei thought that this foundation-laying operation would be a great success if they could take down Lu Shun safely. But after the battle at the wooden station, Zhou Qingfeng rushed to Gold Province without stopping. Now it was not enough to take down Gold Province City. This kid actually wanted to attack Fuzhou and Gaizhou. Not only did he attack Gai Province, but he also wanted to …
Land reform!
Li Shuwei's heart raced as he listened to the story.
Following Zhou Qingfeng's words, a bolt of lightning suddenly appeared in the pitch-black night.
Li Shuwei felt the hair on his body stand up. Danger was approaching.
Zhou Qingfeng stood on top of the city wall and suddenly raised his head. He pushed Li Shuwei away.
A bolt of lightning appeared out of nowhere and struck Zhou Qingfeng with a blue electric light. Zhou Qingfeng only had time to raise his arm before he was struck head-on. In his sea of consciousness, the electric current surged wantonly and was transmitted along the thousands of lines of willpower.
The Imperial Guard soldiers in Gold Province City, the refugees in Lu Shun Kou, the backbone of the 'Revolutionary Army' in Yingkou Base, and all the people who provided willpower to Zhou Qingfeng screamed at the same time. Even Xu Bing, who was sitting in the office at Yingkou Base, suddenly clenched her hands. The veins on her face bulged as she screamed in pain.
Everyone heard Zhou Qingfeng's voice shouting in their sea of consciousness.
"God, it's useless even if you strike me with lightning. I didn't come to this world to follow the rules. You want me to give preferential treatment to those aristocrats who oppress the people? Dream on. The knowledge they monopolize, I'll teach them for free. The public opinion they control, I'll destroy it with a roar. The financial power they control, I'll ruthlessly take it back. I don't believe in heaven and earth, I don't worship ghosts and gods. I only rely on myself! "
Zhou Qingfeng's voice spread along the lines of willpower. Everyone who was closely connected to him could hear it. Xu Bing's eyes instantly turned bloodshot. She shouted in a low voice: "Zhou Qingfeng, hold on. I'll be with you. I want to have a share of this world-changing glory. "
Li Shuwei was originally pushed away, but when he saw the second bolt of lightning, he immediately understood that it was the arrival of divine punishment. Hearing Zhou Qingfeng's shout, he jumped up and cursed: "I'm tall. How can I not be struck by lightning?"
The second bolt of lightning fell. Sure enough, the tall one was unlucky.
Li Shuwei was struck until smoke rose from his body. He fell down with a thud.
The third bolt of lightning was even more powerful. It fell from the sky with a thunderous roar. The air was trembling, and the wilderness was crying. When this blue electric current appeared on top of Zhou Qingfeng's head, an even more powerful aura burst forth from the saber in his hand.
A will of the Vast Expanse that had existed for more than two thousand years was trying to force Zhou Qingfeng to yield. Zhou Qingfeng relied on the power of the entire 'Revolutionary Army' to fight against it.
"The power of tradition isn't strong. I … can definitely … withstand it." Zhou Qingfeng's words became intermittent. It became extremely difficult to raise his arms high. His legs were trembling as if they were about to bend. The 'dog meat' that followed him circled around its master and barked. In the end, the puppet wolf used its head to press against Zhou Qingfeng's lower back and held on.
Thanks to the large-scale education carried out by the 'Revolutionary Army', the intelligent people didn't want to be fooled again. There were many young people in the 'Revolutionary Army'. No one wanted to go back to the old days. Everyone stood up to help Zhou Qingfeng. This was a battle of wills between one class and another.
Zhou Qingfeng's bent knees slowly straightened, and his head was no longer willing to lower. He slowly let out a hoarse roar, and his voice became louder and louder. After the lightning in the sky reached its peak, it quickly weakened. He swung the saber in his hand with all his strength. There was a bright light in the night, like a red sun rising.
The lightning and thunder disappeared, and Jinzhou City was once again plunged into darkness. After a while, in the dark sky, the ancestors of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Qin Huang and Han Wu, Tang Sect and Song Zu kept appearing and disappearing one after another.
Zhou Qingfeng staggered and fell to the ground. He looked up at the ancestors flashing in the sky and shouted while panting, "Why are you looking at me? I want to carry out land reform. I believe in 'kings, marquises, and generals are better off with guts'. You've been dead for many years. Don't come out and make trouble. "
There was a collective sigh in the sky, and the night returned to peace.
Dog Meat came over and nudged Zhou Qingfeng with its head, letting out a whine. He glanced at it, raised his hand, and stroked Dog Meat's head. He said in a low voice, "Good dog. You know how to come to help at the critical moment."
After surviving the sudden heavenly punishment, Zhou Qingfeng's muscles, bones, qi, blood, and divine soul were all tempered. At this moment, his clothes were tattered, and his flesh was torn. However, his cultivation base had improved greatly. His muscles and bones were second layer, his qi and blood were third layer, and his divine soul was third layer. His mental strength had improved greatly. His dantian's sea of qi had doubled. From now on, the time he could summon Lu Ba had been increased to 20 seconds. Even the Lu Ba's gun had changed.
Zhou Qingfeng sat on the ground, panting. He asked Li Shuwei, who was not far away, whose body was charred black, "Are you dead?"
"I'm not dead, but it hurts. My whole body hurts." Li Shuwei's face was so dark that he looked like an African. When he opened his mouth, white smoke came out. "But I feel that my Quintessential Essence has awakened."
"Oh, that's a good thing," Zhou Qingfeng replied weakly. "What kind of spiritual energy do you have?"
Li Shuwei had always been troubled by the fact that he did not have a cultivation base like Zhou Qingfeng's. In fact, he was even weaker than Xu Bing. Now, after being struck by lightning, he finally had one. Although his skin, flesh, and bones were hurting, he still tried his best to raise his hand. Sparks flew from his fingertips. "Hahaha … it's lightning."
Not only did Li Shuwei advance, but Zhou Qingfeng also discovered that even his Dog Meat had been reborn. This puppet wolf had also withstood a huge pressure from the lightning just now. Since it was made of steel, it was originally considered to be at the first layer of muscles and bones. Now, it had jumped to the fourth layer. Its appearance was darker and more ferocious, and its every move carried the aura of thunder and fire.
After sitting on the city wall for three minutes and resting, Chai Jie, as a personal guard, arrived with a dozen female soldiers. Then, several officers of the Imperial Guard also rushed over with their troops. Everyone was worried that their young marshal would be assassinated.
Zhou Qingfeng gave Li Shuwei a simple treatment and ordered people to carry him away to have a good rest. He himself gathered the cavalry and the female soldiers and immediately set off. Before leaving, he said to Li Shuwei, "If I take Fuzhou, I can set up a defense on the east side of the Liaodong Peninsula to prevent Kennu from attacking from Kuandian and Dandong. If I take Gaizhou, I can seal the only entrance and exit on the west side of the Liaodong Peninsula. "
The terrain of the Liaodong Peninsula determined that there were only two places to enter and exit by land. In particular, Gaizhou City was particularly important. If they blocked it, they could prevent a large-scale invasion of the enemy's ground forces. The 'Revolutionary Army' could completely develop behind closed doors. Xu Bing, who was at Yingkou, could also send people over relatively easily and get rid of the restrictions of the ship transport capacity.
Zhou Qingfeng left as soon as he said he would and set off overnight. He moved faster than the deserters of the Ming Army and appeared at the city of Fuzhou early the next morning. There was no suspense in the siege of the city with more than a hundred people. More than half of the soldiers in the city had been transferred by Li Rubai, and the city's defense did not respond at all. The remaining generals and servants could not withstand Zhou Qingfeng's massacre and were all wiped out by him in the morning.
After killing all the officials in Fuzhou, Zhou Qingfeng left them alone and continued to attack Gaizhou northward. He arrived outside Gaizhou City before nightfall and as usual, directly launched a surprise attack. The defense of Gaizhou City was stronger than that of Fuzhou. The commander of the Gaizhou Guards had been threatened by Zhou Qingfeng not long ago and had been worried that the 'Revolutionary Army' would turn against him after he was released.
As a result, Zhou Qingfeng turned against him after taking Jinzhou.
The beacon towers along the way sent out warnings of the arrival of foreign enemies, and the yellow light of Gaizhou City's defense quickly lit up. However, the commander of Gaizhou was also unable to gather enough people's morale to coordinate with the defense. Zhou Qingfeng summoned the 'Road Robber' and hammered the city wall, scaring the people out of their wits. The city's defense was broken through by him alone.
The commander of Gaizhou pointed at Zhou Qingfeng and scolded, "Zhou, you f * cking broke your promise. If you want money, give me money. If you want food, give me food. You said that you would not come back after going to Jinzhou, but today, you came to invade my city. The imperial court will not let you off. I will not let you off even if I become a ghost. "
Zhou Qingfeng broke through the city's defense and looked at the commander of Gaizhou, who was using his authority to put up a final resistance. He chuckled and said, "I'm not too happy that I have to share half of the money and food that I plundered previously with you. From now on, I don't need you anymore. "
As he spoke, Zhou Qingfeng took advantage of the last one or two seconds of controlling the 'Road Robber' to take out a new pistol from his waist, aim, and fire.
Two gunshots rang out, and the power was astonishing.
The commander of Gaizhou, who was protected by his authority, exploded on the spot!
