The scene of tens of thousands of cavalry appearing in a certain place at the same time is quite terrifying. The visual impact caused to ordinary people is unparalleled. At least in your vision, you cannot see anything else, besides war horses or war horses. What's more, the cavalry team of Jiang Shangyan is a pair of cavalry riders and a war horse for combat. This is a treasure, so you have to be carefully protected. There is also a camel horse, a guy who is hunched with things of all sizes and follows the cavalry with cavalry, and sometimes it will become a temporary mount for cavalry.

The first team of the Jiangshangyan Cavalry outside the Jinzhou County City was actually just his vanguard force, but even so, it shocked Jinzhou City.

Although the people of Jinzhou were already mentally prepared for the arrival of the Ming army, the real day was still worried. Seeing the Fire Phoenix Banner that had been hanging on the top of the city for countless years was replaced by the Great Ming Sun and Moon Banner, the feeling of emptiness in his heart could not disappear.

March was originally the spring plowing time. In the past, outside the city of Jinzhou, there were patches of farmlands when farmers were working hard. Now, of course, they could not see anyone. The seeds were sown, and the seedlings in the land were poking their heads, but when the army arrived, the farmers had already run away without a trace.

The soldiers passed by like bandits, and they didn't dare to expect a benevolent and righteous army. Even in the past few months, merchants from the Ming Dynasty have been promoting how good the Ming army is. The people naturally have their own judgments. If they have something to do, they will run away first, see the style and come back.

People in the city cannot escape because martial law has been on the rise in the county town, so it is not easy to come in and it is difficult to go out. Everyone habitually starts to stock up on grain. Generally, at this time, the price of grain soars, but this year it is different. Grain from the Ming Dynasty has been continuously entering the county town, and the grain prices in the grain shops have always maintained their original standards. Even if the people rush to buy, they will never increase their prices.

This indifferent attitude also made the people in the city gradually calm down, and the buying trend declined. This made the profitable Peng Yan fall into trouble for a while. He could have made a fortune, but now he can only see such business opportunities slip away in vain.

Ordinary people closed their doors and hid in their houses and prayed for the blessings of gods and Buddhas in the sky, but the streets were not deserted. Ming merchants, friends and corpses who arrived here earlier were full of the escorts and men who arrived here earlier were happy. Colorful silks were hung outside the shops. They always felt like they were living under someone else's roof. The flag on the top of the city was not replaced with the Sun and Ming flag. They were always worried and felt that the laws of the Ming Dynasty could not protect themselves. Early this morning, I saw the flying sun and moon flags when I got up. The big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.

Their joy gradually infected some brave people from Jinzhou who knew or had a good relationship with them. After careful temptation and conversation, there was finally a group of people who followed these cheerful Ming people to the city wall to see the army from the Ming Dynasty.

Suqian only appeared at the city gate with dozens of personal guards, beside him, following Peng Yan, who was smiling like a flower.

The swallows on the river rode their horses and rushed over. When they were dozens of steps away from Suqian, they turned over and dismounted, strode towards Suqian, clasped their fists with their hands, and laughed: "General Su, can you please stop coming?"

The two of them can be considered old comrades. When Cheng Wuben was under the command of Cheng, they fought side by side many times and fought hand in hand many times. Suqian was basically infantry, and Jiang Shangyan was a cavalry, and it was a common thing to cooperate with the cooperation.

Suqian opened his arms and gave Jiang Shangyan a big bear report. The two of them beat each other's armor and made a banging sound. Peng Yan, who was watching, twitched in the corners of his eyes. He felt that if his small body was beaten by these two big men, he would probably have a broken fate.

"You are here so fast!" Suqian looked at Jiang Shangyan's endless cavalry team with envy.

"You can't do it if you don't know, Your Majesty the Emperor will follow you." Jiang Shangyan smiled and pointed to the Jinzhou County City behind Suqian, "All peace?"

"Of course, I've been here for almost two years, and this little thing is still unsatisfactory?" Suqian smiled proudly: "It's as stable as before."

"That's good." Jiang Shangyan laughed loudly.

"Now there are only 3,000 garrisons in the city, and they are scattered everywhere to maintain public order. Half of the remaining troops under my command are stationed at Yesan Pass, ten miles from Jinzhou City, and the other one has already gone to Lichuan, which borders Xingzhou." Suqian said.

"We'll talk about these things later." Jiang Shangyan smiled and said, "My army will not enter the city, so as not to make the city look icy. But I'm in a hurry. You have to worry more about the supply."

"Of course there is nothing to say." Suqian reached out and waved, and Peng Yan, who was on the side, immediately ran over.

"Peng Yan, the Zhenwu Captain under the Ming Supervision Bureau, met General Jiang." He held the military position, but Peng Yan still habitually bent his waist almost parallel to the ground.

Jiang Shangyan didn't know Peng Yan. He was very happy to hear that this person reported that his family was a military officer in the Ming Dynasty, but when he saw this person's behavior, he couldn't help but frown. Peng Yan could not see the style that the Ming soldiers should have.

Suqian patted Jiang Shangyan on the shoulder and said, "He has this kind of virtue, he doesn't have to pay attention to him, but this person is the largest grain in Jinzhou. When your army is stationed in Jinzhou, he will be responsible for all the supplies. Everything has been arranged."

"Okay, my army will camp first, let's talk about military affairs." Jiang Shangyan nodded, reached out to call a general, and whispered a few instructions. The general immediately turned around and left. After a moment, the cavalry behind him became busy.

The items on the camel horse were unloaded one by one, and iron piles were driven down one by one. In a moment, a cordon was set up outside the city of Jinzhou. In the line, a camp began to stand up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the general's head, Suqian opened the curtain on the wall with a loud bang, and a huge map appeared in front of Jiang Shangyan.

"There is no need for Jinzhou. Now it is in my absolute control. The original local county soldiers have been ordered to put down their weapons and disband and go home. These people are all locals, and they have given enough money to sever and leave happily, and they will not cause trouble." Suqian's hand drew a circle above Jinzhou. "Xingzhou is now empty, and the rule of Chu State in the entire Xingzhou has completely disbanded. All those who can run away have run away. Now Xingzhou is very messy and messy. We are in Xingzhou, and there will be no big troubles, but small troubles will continue."

"What's the specific situation? Let's talk about it?" Jiang Shangyan said.

"I think you know that Ma Xiangdong's plan was so elusive. Xingzhou is also among the plunderings. However, in Xingzhou, they have made fewer people, and more plundering food and supplies. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as starving everywhere. If it weren't for the spring now, all things would be revived, and there would be a lot of food in the ground and on the mountains, I'm afraid that more people would starve to death." Suqian said.

"You should send people to take over wherever you want. If you bring food, the effect will be better." Jiang Shangyan frowned. This situation has been encountered in Jiangnan earlier, but as long as there is enough food, the local situation will soon stabilize.

"I did this, and the effect was not very good." Suqian spread his hands, "Otherwise, my 10,000 army would not be stuck in Lichuan and unable to move forward."

"Why?" Jiang Shangyan said.

"The situation in Xingzhou is quite complicated now. Since the Chu court began to implement the looting plan last year, the army arranged in Xiangzhou has begun to take action. The main ones were dispatched were the Huofeng Army and the cavalry of Qingyishui. Until now, these cavalry are still in Xingzhou. In the words of Sun Chenglong, they are called to feed on the spot to relieve the food pressure in Xiangzhou. After I went there, they basically went there but never returned."

"The Huofeng Army is still staying in Xingzhou?" Jiang Shangyan suddenly became excited.

"Lao Jiang, don't underestimate the Fire Phoenix Army." Suqian reminded.

"Of course I won't underestimate them." Jiang Shangyan laughed and said, "I'm just excited to fight them."

"They are just hungry wolves now, fierce and fierce, coming without a trace, and it is difficult to catch their shadows. My army is trapped in Lichuan because I dare not divide the troops or go deeper."

"I'll deal with them." Jiang Shangyan smiled and said, "I'm responsible for driving them out of Xingzhou. If they don't leave and fight me, that would be even better."

"In addition to these Huofeng Army's rangers, the remaining ones are the local wealthy families in Xingzhou." Suqian said: "These local wealthy families all have their own arms. Now the war in Xingzhou is in chaos, they have taken the opportunity to grow stronger, build walls and dig up bases to accumulate soldiers. They are now a very strange existence. When the Huofeng Army grabs them, they also fight, but when my people go, they also fight. It is very difficult to deal with."

Jiang Shangyan grinned and smiled, "General Su, you are too careful. Your Majesty, what we dislike the most is the so-called wealthy family. These people occupy a large amount of land and rely on their prestige above the countryside to coerce the court. They cannot hold any hope for such guys and kill them directly."

"They have accompanied too many people and villagers." Suqian whispered: "I'm worried that the killing will be too much."

"The people who pick up the weapons are no longer the people." Jiang Shangyan said in a deep voice. "Fight first and then caress. We must pacify Xingzhou as quickly as possible, and then deal with Xiangzhou wholeheartedly. That is a tough bone. Sun Chenglong made up his mind to fight us in Xiangzhou. The longer the time, the harder it will be to manage. I don't want Xingzhou to be in chaos when His Majesty arrives in Xingzhou."
