Once this anti-army fails, he will only have Ling Chi to end.

Therefore, I became very dedicated, maintaining the logistics and civil affairs.

Although this product is a typical bureaucrat, but now he is forced into a corner and does things with all his heart, but he also exerts great ability!

After Wang Cheng was counted, there were more than 3,000 miners under his command, plus the captured officials and young men, a total of more than 4,000 people.

In fact, there are already quite a few troops!

These miners, in particular, are good soldiers.

In Wang Zhenling's previous life, the Qi family's army trained soldiers, and they specially recruited miners in the mountains as soldiers.

Because of mining production, it can be regarded as an industry. Unlike agriculture, it emphasizes division of labor and cooperation.

Coupled with the danger of the mine, if you are not careful, you will die.

Moreover, there are often armed fights between various mine owners, and it is not uncommon for a conflict to kill and injure dozens or hundreds of people.

Therefore, most of these miners are fierce by nature and are not afraid of death.

With a little training, it's a good troop!

Wushan County has a well-developed mining industry, not only coal, but also iron ore and so on.

Therefore, the iron smelting industry in the city is also quite prosperous.

It is naturally impossible to prepare the weapons of 4,000 people and arm them to the teeth.

However, if it were just a weapon for everyone, it could be done.

More than half a month later, this army is barely formed.

It's not a ban, but it's at least a little bit like that.

It's not like it was at the beginning, it's completely scattered.

At this time, the provincial capital had already received the news of the rebellion of the miners in Wushan County.

It's just that the world has been peaceful for a long time, and the administrative efficiency of the local government is very low.

has been tossing for more than half a month, and the provincial capital is still discussing the matter of suppressing bandits, and things are still being pulled back and forth between various yamen.

The bureaucracy, when it encounters something, the first reaction is not how to deal with it, but how to absolve itself of responsibility.

Only after the responsibility is cleared can it be the turn to solve the problem.

And for half a month, I didn't dare to talk about it at all.

Wang Zhenling was originally going to wait for the imperial officers and soldiers to come to encircle and suppress, and was ready to wait for work.

After all, his own army is barely presentable.

But seeing such a situation, I realized that although I was enough to look down on those court bureaucrats.

However, the actions of these guys still refreshed the lower limit of Wang Zhenling's cognition.

If you look at it like this, let it go, these bureaucrats will be able to rip off for a month or two.

Wang Zhenling couldn't wait so long, so he directly marched into the army and swept the surrounding counties and townships.

Originally, I thought that after such a long time, the surrounding counties had already received the news and were already on guard, and it was not easy to fight.

But I didn't expect that things were much easier than I imagined.

is still the same sentence, Hongshan Province has been peaceful here for too long, and there has been no mention of soldiers for tens or hundreds of years.

Not to mention the lack of responsiveness and, crucially, the lack of courage.

From the government to the local people, they are all average.

Although the organization of the young and strong to defend the city.

However, as soon as Wang Zhenling led the army to arrive, he threatened the city, claiming that if the city did not surrender, he would slaughter the city.

As a result, these cities surrendered so obediently, and everything was much easier than Wang Zhenling expected.

In the blink of an eye, there were already four or five county seats, which were beaten down.

......

"How do I feel like my strength is getting stronger!"

Wang Cheng asked Wang Zhenling rather strangely.

It should be said that after he leaves Wuao Mountain, the strength in his body will become weaker.

He took over the position of the mountain god of Wu'ao Mountain, and it stands to reason that the position of this mountain god is regional, and after leaving the realm of the priesthood, that is, the position of Wu'ao Mountain, his power will become weaker.

In the beginning, it was!

As soon as he left Wu'ao Mountain with his troops and began to attack Wushan County, the power of Wang Cheng began to weaken.

In the end, all that remained, the power that came from the corpse of the goddess.

But in the past few days, he found that even if he didn't return to Wu'ao Mountain, his strength began to recover, and even increased!

Now it's almost as weak as when I stayed in Wu'ao Mountain!

However, Wang Zhenling only said lightly about this: "It's normal, you don't look at how much territory you have and how many people you have?"

As Wang Cheng led people to conquer several surrounding counties, his troops swelled like balloons.

In particular, Wang Cheng listened to Wang Zhenling's strategy, led the army to attack other mines, and after collecting all the miners from all places, his soldiers and horses had exceeded 20,000.

Most of them are tough miners!

At this time, if it weren't for the defeat of several surrounding counties, I'm afraid that Wushan County alone would not be able to support so many of them!

Now he has an army of 20,000 under his command, occupies four or five county seats, and has a population of more than hundreds of thousands.

In the past few days, some people have even persuaded him to call the king a system!

However, Wang Cheng did not agree.

He's also a person who has read books, right?

How many of the guys in history who started to be kings after laying down a few county towns were not grass kings?

That is, he was proud for a while, arrogant for a few months at most, and was pacified by the imperial court in a year or two.

This doesn't even need Wang Zhenling to say more to him, he himself can think clearly.

But now that he was reminded by Wang Zhenling, he thought that his subordinates already had such great power!

"Have you forgotten something?" Wang Zhenling suddenly reminded.

Wang Cheng looked sluggish: "What's the matter?"

"Are you rebelling like this without informing your family? Aren't you afraid that your family will be arrested and exterminated?"

Being reminded by Wang Zhenling like this, Wang Cheng suddenly realized that he had forgotten such an important matter.

The Wangcheng family is not a small family, it is a big family in Yingcheng, a family of dozens of people, and it is still engaged in foreign trade.

This allowed him to study abroad, with all kinds of knowledge, and even joined the Tianyuan Society.

"I rebelled in Wushan, so far away from home. The imperial court shouldn't find out where I came from so quickly, right?" Wang Cheng said.

"Aren't you going to send someone to inform the Tianyuan Society and ask your comrades to come and assist you?"

Wang Zhenling smiled faintly: "Who knows if there are any traitors in your Tianyuan Society?"

These few faint words suddenly made Wang Cheng's face cloudy, and he immediately called a few henchmen......

In other words, at the point where Wang Cheng is now, if he doesn't know how to cultivate a few henchmen, it would be too stupid.

Wang Qi is one of Wang Cheng's henchmen, but he is also a miner, although he is not the kind of man with big shoulders and round waist and great strength.

The whole person looks thin and weak, and he looks taciturn, but he is a ruthless character, and among the miners in Wuao Mountain, he is a well-known figure.
