Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

"Where is the third captain of the Huizhou garrison?"

The awe-inspiring female voice sounded again, this time much gentler.

A strong man with a wounded arm stood up and replied respectfully:

"I am here!"

"Are you... a God?" he asked uncertainly.

"Yes, it's me."

The thousand-householder's expression suddenly became excited.

It turns out that this is Lord Du'e, the god they are loyal to!

She is really as mysterious and powerful as the rumors say.

She even showed up in time to save them!

"But please give your orders, God!"

Chen Qingzhu ordered:

"Tie up these surrendered soldiers with ropes and take them with you to carry out your mission. When you return to change guard, drive them back to the territory of Wei."

"Yes!"

Although the captain was somewhat puzzled, he still faithfully followed the Divine Lord's orders.

The rebel territory does not restrict business and travel, and the defense is loose. This time, the Zhongdu Fengyang sent a lot of troops to infiltrate.

This group of surrendered soldiers originally had a force of 2,000, so there were originally two thousand soldiers. However, the superiors appointed one of them as the commander, and the other became a subordinate.

It was a good thing that he was so frightened that he didn't show up to take over the command at the first time, otherwise, he would have been the one struck to death by lightning.

Originally, this captain of the Great Wei was secretly thankful that the God of Du'e was merciful and lenient, so that although he was defeated, he did not lose too many troops and could return to the court safely with these people.

Then he heard the cold voice of the Lord of Destiny again:

"Catch all the thousand households, deputy thousand households, and hundred households."

The uniforms of the centurions and hundred-householders were very different from those of ordinary soldiers, and this centurion was soon captured along with other generals.

"Kill them all to commemorate our dead and wounded soldiers."

The voice was still cold and pleasant, but it issued extremely cruel and ruthless orders.

The Du'e Army's thousand-man army suddenly became spirited:

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers escorting these people immediately drew their swords.

The thousand and hundred households of the Wei Dynasty were so frightened that their legs went limp and they immediately knelt down and begged for mercy:

"God, spare my life!"

"God, please spare us! We will never dare to do it again!"

"We are just following orders, please forgive us, God!"

Chen Qingzhu was not moved at all, and said coldly:

"Execution."

The white knife goes in and the red knife comes out.

More than twenty generals of the Wei Dynasty screamed miserably and fell to the ground with blood gushing out.

The surrendered soldiers of the Wei Dynasty and the thugs of the landlords and powerful families were all frightened to the point of turning pale and trembling.

Chen Qingzhu's majestic voice reached everyone's ears:

"Listen, all the surrendered soldiers. I know that many of you are from poor families, so I am willing to let you go back."

"But if anyone does not know what is good for him and escapes or harms our soldiers and civilians on the road, I will grind him to dust and make him never be reborn!"

The surrendered soldiers all said they dared not.

Therefore, the 1,000 Du'e soldiers who suffered casualties escorted the surrendered soldiers, who were twice their number, to continue to search people's homes and distribute land to various villages.

In order to facilitate management, these surrendered soldiers could only eat one meal a day, and soon they lost the strength to resist or escape.

Of course, after seeing how powerful Lord Du'e was, they didn't dare to even think about it.

Because they heard the God's orders clearly, they would let these Du'e soldiers go after they completed their tasks.

If you resist or escape and anger the God, you will be ground into dust and never be reborn. Who would be so stupid?

Thinking of this, the surrendered soldiers were particularly docile and obedient.

The Du'e Army took them to carry out the mission without adding any extra burden.

Not only that, it seemed that even the raids on houses and sieges of cities went exceptionally smoothly.

——These surrendered soldiers are the best deterrent.

The local gentry, landlords and powerful people were closely following the battle situation here.

They originally thought that by joining forces with the imperial court, they would be able to teach the Du'e Army a severe lesson, and everyone was waiting for good news from the front line with ill intentions.

Unexpectedly, not long after the Du'e army was ambushed, the God Du'e descended on the battlefield and sent down thunder to kill two thousand households, instantly turning the tide of the battle.

Only then did they realize that the God of Du'e was really as powerful as the rumors said.

He can bring down thunder at will and kill the commander in the midst of thousands of soldiers. Who else could he be but a god?

It seems that the news coming from Lord Du'e is neither exaggerated nor false.

The Lord of Du'e is truly a god!

She was really labeled a traitor because she disagreed with the emperor's ideas.

Of course, these past events are not important anymore.

The important thing is that they really can’t afford to offend the Lord Du’e.

The emperor and the god can fight as much as they want, they dare not interfere anymore.

Not long after, the local gentry, landlords and powerful people in Huizhou fled upon hearing the news, taking most of their property and leaving the territory ruled by the God of Du'e overnight.

Naturally, the land in their hands fell into the hands of the Du'e Army without any hindrance.

The land distribution in the entire Huizhou went very smoothly.

On the way to escape, these gentry, landlords and powerful people were devastated.

If they had known this, they should have paid the back taxes or handed over the land.

Now, not only have we lost our land, but we have also been forced to leave our hometown and become homeless. The houses, shops, forests, docks, and valuables that we had accumulated with great difficulty are all gone!

Looking back, those "spineless" and "traitors" they looked down upon turned out to be the truly smart people!

*

In addition to Huizhou and Xiuning, there were four other places where the Wei army and local gentry, landlords and powerful people ambushed together.

Chen Qingzhu arrived in time and followed the same method as in Xiuning.

She interrogated the captain of one of the places and found out that Zhongdu Fengyang only sent out 10,000 soldiers this time, divided into five groups to attack the Du'e Army.

After returning to Nandu, she held a court meeting to inform her subordinates of this development.

This is naturally done to give them more confidence.

Sure enough, when the subordinates heard this, they all looked shocked and delighted.

He had a better understanding of the power of his own God.

With such a powerful deity around, how could the mere Wei court be a match?

Now, they just need to steadily develop agriculture and commerce under their rule, make the people prosperous, and make the army strong.

Sooner or later, they will attack the capital and occupy all the territory of Wei!

By then, all of them will be considered founding heroes!

After being delighted, many people also wanted to actively offer suggestions and demonstrate their own value in front of Chen Qingzhu.

Kong Shuya, a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue, was one of them.

She stood up and said:

"God, guarding against thieves for a thousand days is not a solution, and it is not good for God to work hard for this all day. Why not send some soldiers to guard the border so that the Wei court can no longer send people to harass us?"

This statement was immediately rejected by a reformist party official under Yuan Songbo:

"Doctor Kong, you don't know that we border Wei in many ways, and the border is thousands of miles long. How many people are needed to defend it?"

"Now most of the troops are used to divide the land, and there is no manpower to be spared."

Zhuo Yuxiu (Mrs. Qin), the Minister of Works, also added:

"Master Kong, the Lord God did not block the border because he was worried that money would become cheap and goods would become expensive. This would have a huge impact on ordinary people."

As merchants, they are most sensitive to the relationship between money and goods.

As soon as the master of the temple issued the military policy, they worried that the soldiers would have too much money, causing prices to soar and affecting the livelihoods of ordinary people.

Therefore, I once gave private advice to the abbot.

The temple master said that as long as the borders were not blocked and merchants were allowed to move freely, it would not affect the lives of ordinary people.

Of course, if the imperial court closed the border and did not allow merchants to come to her jurisdiction, she would naturally teach them a lesson.

Mrs. Yan, Kong Shuya, blushed immediately and apologized:

"It is my ignorance."

Chen Qingzhu didn't mind and smiled gently:

"That's fine. I'll think about it more thoroughly in the future."

Kong Shuya secretly made up her mind that she would read more books, consult her son and husband more often, and strive to make useful suggestions in the court that could be adopted by the gods as soon as possible.

Chen Qingzhu continued:

"If my prediction is correct, the Wei court will not send anyone here for the time being. You can rest assured."

The facts were just as Chen Qingzhu expected.
