Chapter 284 Conscription

"Pfft."

The water splashed lightly, and Song Yan stepped on the stairs and stepped into the tub.

Feeling the stimulation of the hot water on the skin, Song Yan could not help but let out a comfortable moan, closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the tub in a comfortable posture.

There was a rustling sound in the ear, and then there were two soft sounds. In the turbulent water in the tub, there were two more people.

Song Yan opened his eyes, and his gaze unscrupulously fell on the two women who were only wearing bellybands and trousers, which made the two women become shy.

"General, this servant is here to rub your back."

Qiuxiang didn't dare to meet Song Yan's eyes, she lowered her head and came behind Song Yan, gently lifted his body and let him lean against her, but rubbed his small hands on his back.

"General, this servant will press your leg for you."

Chun He blushed and smiled at Song Yan, then grabbed one of his feet and lifted it, pinching it for him.

Enjoying the services of the two women, Song Yan felt comfortable to the bottom of his bones. Suddenly, he remembered a sentence: Drunk on the knees of a beauty, wake up and take control of the world.

Isn't this a real picture of yourself?

In the early morning of the next day, when Song Yan walked out of the room, his whole body was full of refreshing energy. Last night, under the service of the two women, he almost flew into the sky.

And he hasn't touched a woman for more than a year. Therefore, he has also caused the two girls to be miserable. Even if the two girls have cultivation bases, they have not been able to withstand his devastation, and they are still sleeping.

Today is the time when Zhao Yan and Gu Min broke down and attacked Longan County and Shunhe County.

As a general, he naturally went to see them off to boost morale.

Today, he has a very high prestige in Qi. Many people don't know the prince, but they can't know the general.

Therefore, Song Yan only showed up, and the tens of thousands of troops shouted "the mighty general".

A strong sound wave spread, shaking the whole city.

After seeing off Zhao Yangumin, Song Yan returned to the military headquarters. After a year of accumulation, a large amount of money was accumulated in the treasury, and he was fully capable of launching a large-scale war.

Once the country is restored, he will support the crown prince Jiang Dan to ascend the throne, and then he will be able to complete the first task.

As for the second task, he has been doing it secretly. Now, the buildings in the world are all over the land of Shenzhou, and it can be said that the movements in the world cannot escape his eyes and ears.

But what troubled him was that, among the four beauties, apart from Qin Xin who was outside of Chu, Ji Yuxi was outside of Qin, but Mrs. Lihua and Su Xin were nowhere to be seen.

According to the news from the spies, since the capital of Qi State was destroyed, Mrs. Lihua has disappeared and has not appeared for more than a year.

And Su Xin is an assassin, her whereabouts are mysterious, so her trace is more difficult to find.

As for Qin Xin, even though she knew she was in Chu State, Song Yan was inconvenient to go there. After all, Qi State still had so many things waiting for him to deal with, and Ji Yuxi's attention to her had not diminished.

Under the auspices of her female prime minister, the Qin country is getting stronger and stronger, and it is fiercely fighting. Just waiting for an opportunity, I am afraid that it will send troops to conquer the world.

…………

As soon as the Qi State moved its troops, countless spies sent the news back to all countries.

However, the communication in this world is backward, I am afraid that after other countries receive the news, Zhao Yan and Gu Min have already entered Longan County and Shunhe County.

Two days later.

Zhao Yan led an army of 20,000 troops to the city of Longan County.

And an hour after arriving, they launched an attack on Longan County.

There were only more than 6,000 defenders in Long'an County, and with a loud noise, the city gate was directly blown open.

Zhao Yan drove in, and in less than five hours, Longan County was taken.

Yes, it was the black gunpowder made by Song Yan that exploded the city gate. However, gunpowder is an epoch-making thing. Therefore, after it was developed, except for a limited number of people who knew the secret, it has been kept secret until this time. expedition...

After occupying Longan County, Zhao Yan did not rush to attack the county seat to which he belonged, but sent messengers to persuade them to surrender.

On the other hand, Gu Min's fighting style was different from that of Zhao Yan. Instead, he divided his troops into four directions and surrounded the four county towns of Shunhe County with a mighty force.

But when he surrounded these four cities, he just opened a gap so that the people from the four county towns could escape and ask for help from the county towns.

Knowing that the four counties were surrounded by the army of Qi State, the governor of Shunhe County couldn't help but feel agitated.

In the end, a team of 5,000 troops was dispatched to rescue the nearest county seat, leaving only 2,000 troops and horses in the county seat.

It's just that the 5,000 soldiers and horses were surrounded by 10,000 troops within ten miles of leaving the city.

It turned out that the soldiers and horses that Gu Min sent to surround the four county towns were simply bluffing.

After more than a year of training, these soldiers have long held their breath.

Plus the number of people has doubled.

Therefore, in just two hours, the battle was over. Three thousand soldiers and horses of Shunhe County were captured, and one thousand five hundred people were killed. The remaining five hundred people left their weapons and armor and fled. The total number of casualties was less than 200, of which eight were killed, twenty-two were seriously injured, and the rest were all lightly injured.

There were only 7,000 soldiers and horses in Shunhe County, but 5,000 were eaten by Gu Min.

Therefore, that night, Gu Min dispatched 100 wolf cavalrymen to sneak into Shunhe County, opened the gate of the drawbridge, and waved his troops straight in. When the day dawned, Shunhe County had already hung up the flag of Qi.

Two days later, Zhao Yan successfully captured the entire territory of Long'an County, and at the same time, Gu Min also turned the entire territory of Shunhe County into the territory of Qi State.

Before the state of Qi was destroyed, there were only nine counties and thirty-three counties.

Today, there are already five counties, that is to say, more than half of the country has returned to the embrace of Qi.

After Zhao Yangumin took the two counties, Zhao State and Yan State also got the news that Qi State attacked the two counties.

However, before they had time to send troops, there was news that the two counties had fallen.

For this reason, the Zhao and Yan countries were shaken up and down.

After hearing the news that the two counties were taken, Song Yan's first reaction was to expand his troops.

After a year of recuperation and Song Yan's implementation of the tax reduction policy, the commoners in Linshui County, Yi'an County and Fan County can have enough to eat. In addition, Song Yan has vigorously promoted the development of business. Some civilians became rich.

Soon, the general's recruitment notice spread in the three counties.

Recruitment requirements:

One: Healthy men.

Two: between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five.

Three: There are brothers at home.

Conscription benefits:

One: Fifty dollars per month for the army.

Two: Settlement fee of five hundred dollars.

Three: Anyone who has a soldier in the family can be exempted from the agricultural tax in the family.

Four: If you die in the war, you can get 10,000 yuan in compensation.

As soon as these four benefits came out, there were a lot of people who responded. You must know that even if the salary of ordinary soldiers in Yan Zhao and other countries would not exceed 20 yuan per month, this was still under the circumstance that Shangguan would not deduct.

Secondly, there is no settlement fee, and the agricultural tax cannot be reduced or exempted. As for death, there will be no compensation fee.

There are military salaries, settlement allowances, and tax cuts for the family. The most important thing is that even if you die on the battlefield, you can earn 10,000 compensation for the family.

Therefore, in just three days, 80,000 troops were collected.

Song Yan didn't even think of this number.
