Fortunately, all the leaders of Qingfeng Village who were preparing to assign people to their own legions were here, so Jia Yucun did not make a big fool of himself.

Before dinner, the 120,000-strong army had been divided up according to their respective needs.

Six legions were ordered to fight in all directions, and each legion was allocated 20,000 troops.

Together with the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses originally in each legion, a total of nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses were deployed outside the city of Jinling.

Everyone who heard and saw it was moved.

After a night's rest, the six legions, led by their leaders, left Jinling in a mighty procession in accordance with Li Qingfeng's strategic plan.

Led by the elite members of Qingfeng Village and equipped with advanced firearms,

In the next few days, Li Qingfeng, who was stationed in Jinling, received reports from the front line almost every day.

Today this gang captured a certain county, and tomorrow that gang captured a certain number of cities.

Perhaps it was because of the great reputation of Qingfeng Village, or because the imperial court had twice withdrawn a large number of garrison troops from the south some time ago.

As a result, wherever the Qingfengzhai army passed, they encountered almost no decent resistance.

In just five days, Chuzhou, Luzhou, Chizhou, Huizhou and other places south of the Huaihe River, as well as half of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, were almost all conquered, and a large flag with the word "Wu" officially announced by Qingfengzhai was hung on the city wall.

Every time a city was captured, more than a thousand soldiers would be left in the city to guard the city and enforce the Nine Qingfeng Laws.

In the Jinling prefectural government office,

Li Qingfeng looked at the latest battle report and was overjoyed.

"The Sixth Legion is great! They've reached Funing Prefecture in just five days. Let's commend them!"

Xiao Ai, who was standing in front of Qingfeng Li, spoke directly.

"Okay, got it!"

Just then, Aunt Hua walked into the hall and bowed to Qingfeng Li.

"Peak Master, the Third, Fifth, and Eighth Legions have received news that after their army passed through, the local people who stayed behind encountered considerable resistance when implementing the Nine Principles of Great Wu Qingfeng."

"However, due to the orders of the Peak Master, no massacre was carried out. These legions have all written to ask for instructions on what to do."

Qingfeng Li snorted coldly.

"I didn't expect that there are so many people in this world who value money over their lives?"

Then he looked at Aunt Hua and asked,

"Where is Jia Yucun?"

Aunt Hua said,

"Master Jia has been vigorously promoting the policies of the Great Wu in Jinling City recently. With the cooperation of the Wang and Xue families, things are going quite smoothly!"

Qingfeng Li nodded and said directly,

"Tell Jia Yucun that this Peak Master has granted him the power of supervision. Let him start from today and lead his men to inspect our newly conquered territory. He will know what to do!"

"Oh, and don't forget to have Big Dog equip him with two hundred elite guards, to prevent him from being killed along the way!"

Aunt Hua accepted the order and said,

"Yes, Peak Master!"

Seeing that Aunt Hua didn't leave immediately after she finished speaking, Qingfeng Li asked in confusion,

"Is there anything else?"

Aunt Hua nodded slightly, and said with a serious look,

"Peak Master, the imperial delegation has already passed through Haizhou. Madam Ruyi of Yangzhou has sent a letter, asking for your instructions on how to proceed."

Li Qingfeng raised his lips when he heard this, and couldn't help but sigh,

"The court is so fast! I thought it would take them half a month!"

Aunt Hua smiled and said,

"Perhaps the imperial court is also anxious!"

Qingfeng Li smiled and nodded.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Rong Mama,

"Send a letter to Ruyi. After the Daqian imperial envoys arrive in Yangzhou, lift the blockade on information from the north and hold peace talks in Yangzhou. Do not allow them to move south even a single step."

When Aunt Hua heard this, she immediately understood what Qingfeng Li meant and said with a smile,

"Peak Master is wise!"

"Ha ha,"

Qingfeng Li laughed heartily and shook his head.

"It's just a message to them, but I also need to remind Ruyi to be careful."

"Peace talks must be held in the end. Otherwise, no matter how much territory we conquer, we won't be able to maintain it. As we and the imperial court consume each other, it will eventually benefit other ambitious people."
