Chapter 279 Le Shi Proclaims Emperor (6)

Lezhou City is like a spider's old nest. When the poisonous spider curled up in the nest moves, all the spider webs vibrate violently.

In Lezhou, as well as the other five states actually controlled by the Le clan, all the Le clan's private troops began to mobilize frequently.

The granary was opened, and every private army camp began to hoard food and grass.

The money warehouse was opened, and the Le family's private army, from top to bottom, from generals to pawns, all paid out the equivalent of a year's military pay on weekdays.Some important generals have even received high rewards.

The arsenal was opened, heavy armor, heavy shields, strong bows and crossbows, large equipment, and all kinds of ordnance were issued one after another, arming the private army that was fat and strong on weekdays to the teeth.

The racecourse is opened, all kinds of good medicinal materials, all kinds of secret recipes are used one after another, and the horses with the blood of alien beasts are poured down with big bowls of good medicine every day, which stimulates them to groan all day long Call.

Stimulated by the power of the medicine, coupled with the recovery of Ji Shengtian's heaven and earth inspiration, the physique and physical strength of the horses with different blood began to soar in Leshi's horse farm.Nearly [-]% of the mounts have returned to their ancestors, and their quality in all aspects has been enhanced several times or dozens of times compared to before.

Starting from Lezhou City, in Le's territory, local officials began to implement the Wartime Baojia System.

All the people are thoroughly registered and recorded.

Regardless of whether they are scholars, farmers, businessmen, or high or low status, all the common people, including those servants, servants, slaves, etc. who are not counted in the yellow register of the common people, are all counted clearly.

All adult men were included in the 'reserve army roster' formulated by Le Shi. Once the local government called, they had to put on their armor and form an army to go to the battlefield.

Of course, Le Wu is somewhat similar to his nephew in some respects.

If you want to get your name off this 'Reserve Army Register', it's not difficult—ordinary people, if you pay ten 'loyalty and service donations', your name will naturally be erased.

For small traders with a little wealth, the price has risen to fifty guan.

Ordinary small landlords and small wealthy businessmen can donate [-] guan per contribution.

By analogy, those big families with famous names, big families and large families, and a large number of relatives, can't solve this problem without spending millions.

This is the movement in the six states under the complete control of Leshi.

And in the surrounding areas of Le's territory, among the states and counties that bordered on Le's territory, many officials were the confidants of Le Wu when he was the general.

Especially the local imperial guards in prefectures, prefectures and counties, they are Le Wu's absolute buddies.

Before Haojing City had time to respond, Le Wu greeted Lezhou City. Around Le's territory, the forbidden troops of the four states rebelled together. Many cultural and educational officials were either killed, imprisoned, or simply took refuge. Raised the Le's banner, and directly occupied various prefectures, counties, prefectures, and counties.

Afterwards, the imperial guards in these places also opened their arsenals, money warehouses and granary warehouses, and all kinds of luggage were spent like flowing water. Groups of young and strong people who didn't know what happened were forcibly recruited, put on armor, and took up weapons. , joined the army.

In this atmosphere, two brothers, Le Yi and Le De, together with a dozen cousins, together with Lu Bi, the benefactor, led a group of guards and hundreds of soldiers, and broke into Le Yi in a mighty way. State Prison.

The Le family is a pure nouveau riche.Not to mention the younger generation of clansmen, the Le family's descendants who are truly grown up and can be used, counting the thousand clansmen before Le Wu took the throne of the general, there are only a few thousand people in total.

Thousands of people seem to be a lot, but the official positions occupied by the Le family in Haojing City are not mentioned. As far as their territory is as wide as six states, how many counties, prefectures, and counties are under their jurisdiction?How many official positions are there in each prefecture, prefecture and county?
Therefore, in the Le clan's own territory, almost every adult member of the Le clan occupies a high position, and even holds several positions.

Whether it is done well or not, let alone praise, anyway, the important official positions in the six states are controlled by members of the Le family.

For example, Leyi and Lede's relatives are Lezhou's conscript envoy, Lezhou city's deputy city lord, Qingpingfang's order, Qingpingleyuan's purchasing manager, and...

In short, Lehe, the father of the two brothers, held more than a dozen official positions. When he went out on weekdays, the guards around him would carry a wooden box, which was filled with various official seals, tokens, driving notes, Blank official documents, etc., otherwise there will be no turnover at all.

In the Le clan, Lehe is not considered a direct descendant who holds the most core power, but he can be regarded as one of the most important and important clan members.

Therefore, Le Yi took Lehe's token and stormed into the most important prison for serious criminals in Lezhou City.

Prisons, especially prisons for serious offenders.

Cold, damp, dirty, ominous.

The most important thing is, generally here, there is very little oil and water.

Therefore, the warden of this prison is not a member of the Le clan, but a distant cousin of a concubine of Ge Xinna, the concubine of the Le clan.

Therefore, Le Yi waved Lehe's token in front of the prison warden, who he didn't even bother to ask for his name, and slapped the prisoner: "Come on, stop talking nonsense, open all the cells, and release all the prisoners, my lord!" , to take them away!"

The prison warden was stunned, and obediently accepted the order with a sense of humor. He hurriedly led the guards, opened the cells, and took out the ragged, foul-smelling felons, who were born in all kinds of strange things, hideous and ugly. was released.

As soon as these felony prisoners walked out of the cell door, they roared loudly one by one, wanting to do something.

But hundreds of soldiers in heavy armor and armed with serial crossbows stood in front of them, and all these guys calmed down.

Satisfied, Le Yi led a large group of people to take all the prisons in Lezhou City, the prisons in the city, and the temporary detention centers in the yamen. Petty thefts, rogues, etc., took two full days to completely wipe them out!

Outside Lezhou City, outside a farm that Leyi borrowed from a local big landlord, in a huge field, the crops that were almost ready to be harvested were trampled to pieces.

War horses roamed happily in the fields, and from time to time they lowered their heads and gnawed a few golden ears of wheat.

Teams of heavily armored soldiers wandered around the fields.

On the edge of the field, tall watchtowers were built. Sentinels with strong bows and crossbows were standing on the watchtowers, looking around coldly.

In the fields, thousands of tents were crookedly packed together in a mess.

Nearly [-] heroes with names and surnames in the rivers and lakes gathered in the camp in groups of three or four, basking in the sun, catching lice, and bragging about their great achievements.

Those guys who came out of the prison for serious criminals yelled loudly about their prestige of killing seven and eight.

The petty criminals smiled and described to the rookies around them that they once had a romantic encounter with a handsome lady in the showhouse of a wealthy businessman or landlord's home one night.

And those ordinary rogues are exchanging friendly experiences.In the city of Lezhou, which house has a handsome daughter-in-law, which house has a young girl who is tender and tender, which shopkeeper is timid and can come to touch porcelain, and which casino has fierce thugs whose fingers will be cut off if he cheats... …

Nearly [-] 'heroes' were bragging and looking in all directions with flickering eyes.

They don't understand why they were released from prison or detention center.

But looking at the momentum, something seems wrong.

The soldiers around were clearly the best of the best. The heavy armor on their bodies, the strong crossbow on their backs, and the steel knives and spears in their hands were all top-notch goods, and they were not easy to mess with at first sight.

Look at the sentry towers, they are all made of high-quality logs and excellent steel components. They are sturdy and beautiful, and the standard is uniform. They are also top-notch goods.

Even the tents they slept in for the past two days were made of thick materials without any compromise, and they had excellent windproof and waterproof performance.

Not to mention……

'Bang bang bang'!
The sound of the gong sounded, and horse-drawn carriages drove up, and large buckets of white rice, fried meat, yellow fried eggs, green vegetables, etc. were sent out like running water.

Someone was shouting loudly: "Thieves who killed thousands of knives, eat, eat! Hurry up and line up, everyone is full, listen to the son!"

'Young master lecturing'?
Who cares so much?

The prison is suffering from lack of soup and water, and some serious criminals have been in the hard prison for an unknown number of years.

Seeing such a sumptuous meal, they had already grabbed the bowls and chopsticks, and rushed up like a vicious dog.

After a random scramble for food, the delivery convoy withdrew, and Le Yi and others, together with Lu Bi, the patron, appeared on a high wooden platform in the camp.

A thousand elite heavy armor borrowed from Lehe surrounded the high platform, and one after another large boxes were continuously transported to the high platform by a group of guards.

The well-fed heroes gathered lazily by the high platform one by one.

Many people chattered about the clothes on Le Yi and the others, speculated on the value of the ring pendants hanging around their waists, and speculated on the identity and origin of these young masters.

Lu Yan walked to the high platform with a smile, and gently opened a few large boxes.

So, the golden gold ingots, the white silver ingots, and the crimson-glowing boxes full of newly minted copper coins appeared in front of all the heroes of the world, bathed in the autumn sunshine.

In the entire camp, there was a loud sound of breathing in an instant.

Nearly [-] heroes from all walks of life stared at these big boxes with green eyes. Many heroes who came from bandits and thieves even had their muscles throbbing violently.

Behind, hordes of guards were still bringing up mouthfuls of large boxes.

Le Yi looked at this group of heroes with satisfaction, and clapped vigorously: "Very good, I can see that you brothers have a good impression of these gold, silver, and copper coins!"

There was a commotion in the camp, and countless people were clamoring and clamoring presumptuously.

Le Yi smiled, and pointed to his own nose: "I, Le Shi Le Yi, my father, Le He, the envoy of the Lezhou Conquest...you bastards who deserve to be slaughtered, my son, I will give you a chance to stand out!" , A chance to change your destiny!"

"Eat my food, take my salary, follow me, change the day and change the day, let Dayin change his old appearance... use knives and guns, kill a wife and a son, and kill a bright future!"

Lu Qi coughed lightly, and clapped equally vigorously.

"Young Master Le Yi means that the Le family wants to rebel and fight the emperor in Haojing City!"

"If you are willing to rebel with us, we will be a family in the future."

"What you don't want...raise your hands now, and you can die!"

Lu Yan smiled brightly.

It was originally his idea to hunt down these heroes of the rivers and lakes to serve as private soldiers.
