    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 681

    "Great victory in Xinyang Mansion, the Department of Public Security beheaded more than 3,000 heads of bandits and captured nearly 10,000!"

    At noon, a cavalry soldier of the Qinghe Army who was carrying a post report rushed into Xitian Mansion like a whirlwind, and then shouted along the street at the top of his voice.

    Xitian Mansion is also one of the richest mansions in Jiangnan province, and the Xitian warehouse, which stores a large amount of grain, is also here.

    Although bandits are active in the surrounding area, the city of Xitian Prefecture is in good order because of the heavy troops stationed there.

    After the war ended, the small merchants and hawkers in Xitian Mansion also set up stalls to do business again, and the popularity in the city recovered a lot.

    Seeing this sweat-drenched Qinghe soldier yelling along the horse, the people in the city were all talking.

    "Great victory for the Xinyang Mansion? It seems that they have won the battle again."

    "They are also too powerful. They even beheaded more than three thousand heads. It's too scary."

    "Why is the court so ungrateful now? It is always beaten to pieces by the bandits."

    "Hush, misfortune comes from your mouth."

    "I see that the river army is much better than the imperial army. They don't burn, kill, loot, and don't extort money. They even say they want to reduce our tax for a year."

    "Don't look at them occupying this place now, the court will call back sooner or later."

    "I don't think so. The Qinghe Army may be able to replace the imperial court with its successive victories."

    Xiaochuchuan Island of Qinghe Army's great victory in Xinyang Mansion came to Xitian Mansion, and the common people were also talking about it.

    The support of the Qinghe Army is naturally cheering, because the Qinghe Army has won another battle.

    However, those who hated the Qinghe army had a cold attitude, making sarcastic remarks from the sidelines.

    Although the eyeliners of many wealthy country gentry and gangsters did not speak in the crowd, they also looked unhappy.

    Not long after, several urgent post reports were posted in conspicuous places such as the city gate of Xitian Prefecture.

    At the same time, some post newspapers were quickly distributed to counties and towns under Xitian Prefecture to expand the effect of publicity.

    Seeing the post newspaper posted by the Qinghe Army, many people surrounded it one after another, and those who could read read it out loud.

    Not long after, the news that the Qinghe Army had wiped out a series of bandits supported by the Zhang family in Xinyang Mansion spread rapidly in Xitian Mansion.

    After a man dressed as a peddler listened to the post newspaper read by the scholar, he also hurried out of the city with his own shoulder pole.

    Not long after, the peddler carrying goods arrived in a town. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he turned into a small alley and knocked on the back door of a mansion.

    "My lord, there is news from Xinyang Mansion that the Zhang family in Xinyang Mansion has stumbled."

    The peddler was quickly brought into the study by a man who looked like a housekeeper, and reported what he had discovered to a middle-aged man with a big belly.

    "More than 3,000 of them were beheaded on the spot, all the industrial estates of the Zhang family were confiscated, and 4,000 to 5,000 people were implicated and arrested."

    After hearing the peddler's report, the middle-aged man sitting behind the desk was also shocked.

    "Where did you get all this news?" The middle-aged man asked hastily.

    "These were all reported by the bandits themselves, and they posted them at the gate of the city."

    "The Zhang family can be regarded as a first-class family in Xinyang Prefecture. They have a lot of eyeliners everywhere in Xinyang Prefecture. How could it be all of a sudden?" The middle-aged man was also puzzled.

    "Order, let them hide for a few days, wait and see the situation, and don't go out for a few days."

    Hearing that the Zhang family in Xinyang Mansion was inexplicably taken over, the middle-aged man also felt that the matter was not simple, so he decided to suspend the activities.

    This middle-aged man was a high-ranking official in the Jiangnan province. When the Qinghe army came, he hid in the countryside, secretly recruited the remnants of the defeated generals, and united with some local gentry to carry out secret activities.

    He was behind the planning of the several attacks against the Qinghe Army in Xitian Mansion, and it can be said that he is also a behind-the-scenes manipulator.

    Now that he heard that the Zhang family had fallen into the hands of the Qinghe army, he did not dare to act rashly in order to act cautiously.

    Just like the mastermind behind the scenes, when the Qinghe army took over the Zhang family and thousands of gangsters in Xinyang Mansion, it also greatly frightened them and made them dare not act rashly.

    Just two days later, there was another post report from Huaiyang Mansion.Now, this time it is about the disposal of the Zhang family and others.

    More than 200 key members of the Zhang family, including Zhang Xin, were executed by Ling Chi. The news spread that the families and bandits operating in various prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River were a little more afraid of the Qinghe army.

    Chen Ziang knew that although the victory of Xinyang Mansion this time could deter those families and bandits, it was far from enough.

    So Chen Ziang is going to let Yueshan implement the policy of division and disintegration, suppress some, win over some, and stabilize as soon as possible.

    But what Chen Ziang didn't expect was that the security chief he appointed was even more ruthless than himself, and he wanted to catch him all in one go.

    "General, there are too many gangsters in various parts of the Jiangnan province, and our security department is short of troops. If we want to wipe them out prefecture by prefecture, it will take time and effort, and we may not be able to clean them up."

    After handling the affairs of Xinyang Mansion, Yue Shan, the Director of Public Security of Jiangnan Province, led his troops back to Huaiyang Mansion and met Chen Ziang in person.

    Yue Shan won a battle right after he took office, and through the actual battle, he also had more ideas, so he needed to report to Chen Ziang.

    "What good solution do you have?"

    Chen Ziang also has a good impression of Yue Shan, who can win the battle, so he directly asked him to express his thoughts.

    "General, then I will speak out boldly. If there is any offense, please make amends."

    "You just say it, why are you such a mother-in-law?"

    Seeing that Chen Ziang was so forthright, Yue Shan didn't hide it, and began to reveal all the thoughts he had pondered after this battle.

    "General, these wealthy families are colluding with gangsters. After our deterrence this time, they must have hidden deeper and will not attack easily."

    "Even if we have information from the intelligence department, it would be too time-consuming to go to the prefectures and counties one by one."

    "And they are familiar with the terrain of the prefectures and counties. Now they have raised their vigilance against us. Once we hide, we will not be able to find them."

    "So I have an immature idea, that is, instead of us looking for them, it is better to force them to come out and wipe them all out in one fell swoop."

    After hearing Yue Shan's words, Chen Ziang also frowned. These wealthy families and gangsters are not stupid, they will take the initiative to come out?

    "I'm afraid they won't come out on their own initiative?" Chen Ziang doubted the feasibility of this plan.

    "This requires the cooperation of the general." Yue Shan said mysteriously when he saw Chen Ziang.

    Chen Ziang pointed to himself: "I cooperate?"

    "Yes, I need the general to make bait and fish them out." Yue Shan said hesitantly.

    "I said Yue Shan, you can count me in, kid?"

    Chen Ziang also reacted, this boy Yue Shan used himself to go fishing?

    "I also ask the general to make amends. I have no choice but to do so. If I want to solve so many gangsters in a short time and stabilize the situation"

    Seeing Chen Ziang raise his voice, Yue Shan hurriedly explained in fear.

    "All right, all right, let me think about it."

    Chen Ziang didn't really blame Yue Shan, but was thinking about whether this matter would work.

    "General, you are the commander of our army. Those bandits and wealthy families will definitely want to put you to death. As long as we arrange a little bit and give them a chance to show off, they will definitely come in droves." (Remember the website URL:  www.hlnovel.com
