Chapter 245

Luzhou Mansion is the place where the rebels gather, Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan of Confucianism are responsible for guarding here, gathering the soldiers and troops around Luzhou, and the food of the surrounding people is also collected into the city, implementing the policy of clearing the wilderness and preparing to hold on for a long time.

And the people around the entire Luzhou were bewitched by the gentry, all of them got into the city, ready to fight with the army going south, and countless scholars and doctors were waving their flags and shouting, and they were even more verbal and written against Yanjing, and in a short time, Zhao Shu's reputation was already stinking.

After Zhao Shu arrived in Huainan, the 50,000 elite army was quickly pushed to the city of Luzhou.

But Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan did not retreat, and countless scholars and doctors also understood that this was the last chance for Confucianism to fight, and many gentry also understood that once Yanjing's soldiers and horses arrived, they would no longer have the advantage of scholars, and they would have to pay taxes and serve together with those mud legs.

"The Son of Heaven and the scholars jointly rule the country, which is an iron law issued by Taizu, but Zhao Shu'er actually rebelled against Taizu's law and brutalized our scholars.

Huang Qianshan roared with an angry expression, looking unwilling, looking at the gentry around Luzhou, and shouting passionately.

"Yes, if we don't fight, our property, our acres, and the poems and books handed down by our ancestors will be gone, and Your Majesty will be imprisoned by Zhao Shu'er, this is a rebellion!

This world is not the Zhao royal family's alone, but also our scholars, Zhao Shu'er violates the way of heaven, disrespects the sages, and disrespects his father.

So this Zhao Shu child is a godless villain with no father and no king!"

Wang Boyan also raised his arms and shouted, his expression was full of grief and determination.

"Kill Zhao Shu!

Many of the scholars and gentry roared angrily.

"Zhao Shu's army is already outside the city, this is a battle for the people of the world!"

Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan roared angrily, and the surrounding scholars also roared angrily, preparing to fight with Zhao Shu.

At this time, in the camp outside the city, the Dragon's Tooth Secret Guard reported everything that happened in the city. caused Zhao Shu to laugh.

"Okay, okay! Let them prepare more, only in this way, can completely shatter their illusions!"

Zhao Shu laughed, full of contempt and ridiculousness for these gentry, and now, he is still trying to resist, it is simply looking for death, the whole Jiangnan has been made dumplings by himself, and these scholars are still fantasizing about these empty things.

No wonder they are all saying that Xiucai rebelled, and it didn't work out for three years. It is no wonder that the Great Song Dynasty of their time and space has the national strength of the whole world, but they were defeated in a mess, and they were almost wiped out by the Hu people.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shu's expression was also a little emotional and embarrassed.

"Wang Gui, three days later, attack with all your strength and take the entire Luzhou. Advance to Jinling City!"

As soon as Zhao Shu's words fell, Wang Gui was ordered to go down and arrange, and the entire army quickly advanced several miles.

Three days later, more and more soldiers gathered in Luzhou City and more and more scholars and doctors rushed to support them. The weapons are also getting stronger and stronger, and even many masters are fighting on the city walls, ready to fight to the death.

"Kill!"

Zhao Shu stood on the watchtower and looked at Luzhou City in the distance. I couldn't help but ask lightly, a little interested, if it wasn't for the unification of the Great Song Dynasty. Zhao Shu is too lazy to do anything to his own people, with this kung fu, Zhao Shu would rather deal with foreign tribes!

"Drink!"

In the twelve huge roars, twelve ironclad puppets came out of the crowd, the huge height of the huge puppet armor was higher than the city wall of Luzhou City, and the defenders who were approaching the entire Luzhou were suddenly frightened, and many people were enthusiastic, and they were immediately exterminated, and some even fled directly.

"Kill!"

Tens of thousands of murderous troops roared angrily, and the terrifying aura made some scholars and doctors who had never experienced war even pale.

As soon as the killing stopped, countless huge crossbow arrows came overwhelmingly, like flying locusts, enveloping the sky above Luzhou City.

"Ahh

"Run!"

"Run!"

Faced with the bombardment of crossbow arrows and twelve huge ironclad golems, the defenders on the city wall could no longer stop them, especially the scholars who were originally full of confidence, and fled in all directions.

"These guys who don't have guts!"

When the defenders at the head of the city saw the scattered scholars, they couldn't help cursing, and when they saw the black army and the broken city wall under the city, their faces turned green, and they dared to resist.

With a loud bang, the city gate was blasted open by the ironclad puppet, and the huge city wall was also lifted, and the terrifying force blasted out the countless defenders of Luzhou City.

The army of 50,000 rushed into the city of Luzhou in an instant, and with the entry of the army, Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan fled with a large number of gentry, and many of the scholars who had not had time to escape were all arrested.

After the arrival of the army, the cabinet officials of Yanjing and the Qilin Pavilion also entered and began to implement changes, and at this time, no one dared to stop them.

All the land and property of the gentry who participated in the resistance in Luzhou City were confiscated and imprisoned for treason, and their land was distributed to more people.

After receiving the benefits, many civilians no longer believed the words of many scholars.

"We are sitting in Luzhou for the time being, and we will send people to spread the benefits of Luzhou's reform to Jiangnan!"

Zhao Shu was not in a hurry at this time, but just maintained the oppression of Jinling, prompting those Confucian people to gather more strength, and the province himself to exterminate them one by one, wasting his energy in vain.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the changes in the land around Luzhou have been implemented, and there will be no accidents!"

Su Zhiyuan, who followed, said with a happy expression, with the endorsement of the army, the whole change was much smoother.

However, Wang Gui was not so happy, and said with a worried expression: "Your Highness, there are more and more rebels in Jinling, and this time the means of the gentry around Luzhou have frightened the scholars and doctors in the entire south of the Yangtze River, and a large number of masters have gathered in Jinling, and the entire Jinling is also being built rapidly! More importantly, the private soldiers of many big families have also gathered in the past, and these are the elite of the elite. ”

When Zhao Shu heard this, his eyes were slightly fixed, and he looked at Wu Yuan and said, "What are the actions of the Feng family in Lingnan and the Lu family in Xiangxi?"

"The Feng family in Lingnan is sticking to the Guangnan East Road and guarding it impenetrable, while the Lu family is sticking to Xiangxi, and the Lu family is even linked to King Kang in Sichuan.

"It's troublesome, after Jinling is broken, some people in the Confucian sect are afraid that they will also move closer to these two!"

"Su Zhiyuan, you send two envoys to the Feng family and the Lu family, as long as they accept the policy of paying taxes as a whole for the gentry and disarm the private soldiers, the Lone King will not touch them in the slightest, if they are unwilling, then they can only meet each other!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Shu's eyes were slightly cold: "Wu Yuanba, you take my letter to see Zhao Gou, if he goes to Yanjing, I will keep the position of Dazongzheng for him, otherwise he will be imprisoned!"

"Su Zhiyuan, you send people to see Zong Ze and Yue Fei at the same time, and order them to come to see me in the name of the imperial court!

Zhao Shu's words made everyone look surprised, His Royal Highness actually gave the two of them such a big position, and Wang Gui was overjoyed, he and Yue Fei were the same senior brothers, and they were childhood friends, if they were under the command of His Royal Highness, then their power would be much greater, and they were also expected to settle in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in the future.
