Chapter 110 The Aftermath

The three battalion commanders lived up to expectations and stopped all the cars rushing to the city a second before the city gate was completely destroyed. Although the process was a bit thrilling, the result was always good.

The troops shouted slogans and entered Changshan City in an orderly manner without encountering any obstacles. A large number of people closed their doors and did not dare to appear, for fear of being killed.

When Qing Cang entered the city, a large number of people were kneeling in front of him, some of whom were the Black Mountain Army, and some were wearing brocade clothes and looked like rich people.

These Black Mountain soldiers were the guardians who had raised the white flag before. They took off their armor, threw away their weapons, and knelt respectfully to the ground.

A guard counted the number of these people and reported it immediately. "Reported to the commander, a total of 400 Black Mountain troops surrendered. More than 300 merchants and rich men were with them."

"Incorporate the Black Mountain Army into the recruit camp and train it. When the Battalion Commander of China comes back, he will directly command it."

It can be seen that these people showed an expression of excitement on their faces. They originally thought they would not be treated well, but now they seem not to be, because they are still managed by Huayuanquan. This also shows that the man in front of them is very clear. With this, they know that the choice of surrender is the right one.

If Huayuan Quan could come back, it would be enough to prove his loyalty, and his people should be commanded by him. There is nothing more reliable than giving it to a loyal person. And he was the original commander of this Black Mountain army.

Those people were quickly called away by the soldiers, and Qing Cang was also blinded by the fact that some other merchants and rich men fell to their knees here. It was not like they were surrendering.

"Why do you guys fall down here on your knees? They all look up at me."

When he asked, an older person appeared below and told us. "Sir, we are some merchants in Changshan City. We are suffering from the oppression of the Black Mountain Army, which makes us survive in the cracks. It is very difficult. We have thought of resisting, but they are numerous. Now, seeing that the Lord breaking through the city and eradicating this big cancer for us, we invite the main members of the Chamber of Commerce in the city to come and offer treasures and money to pay military salaries."

"Yes, sir, these are our little thoughts. Please don't dislike me."

These words can be understood as they came to pay the protection fee, hoping that Qingcang could open the Internet after collecting their money and let them continue to do business here. In ancient times, the army occupied a place, and most of them started with wealthy businessmen. These people were rich and could requisition money as military supplies. To put it bluntly, that is, rob.

Qing Cang looked at these people, all of whom were rich and looked kind, but they were extremely smart. Before he could settle them, he handed over the treasure in advance, and was also smart. On the other hand, they had experienced more than once similar situations.

He had to see how sincere they were. So he asked questions.

"How much do you contribute?"

"Sir, our profits are not high during this war, so we only prepared five cars of treasures. I hope that the adults will not be too small."

These old foxes must be more than that. If Qing Cang ordered to take them, there would definitely be more. However, now he is not short of money, and he may be able to obtain them from these people when he is short of them in the future.

He nodded, five cars of treasures were still making do with it, and the Black Mountain Army's nest has not been copied yet. After the copying, there will only be more.

"Can you have any wine, drinks and meals?"

After fighting a day of war, everyone is tired and should let the army relax, and wine and meat are the best things. As for the appreciation, it is not the time yet.

At this time, an old man with a red face shouted: "I am willing to offer wine to welcome the soldiers."

"Very good. I'm very satisfied with your performance today. Remember, we are the Chinese Legion. From today on, this city will be the Chinese City!"

"Yes, sir, we will remember it in our hearts."

How dare they say no? Whoever listens to someone's fist? Their ability to survive under the power of the Black Mountain Army means that they have their own set.

"Staff General Wu."

"exist!"

"You ask some literati to record these people on the record, including the address and business names, and how much they have given, and we must settle the accounts clearly."

After Wu Chao understood, he immediately arranged for people to deal with it.

Only then did the people's faces show a hint of ease, which can be confirmed that their initiative was exchanged for Qing Cang's trust. But some people's expressions were frozen. After this record, it was clear that some rich people who were more and less were caught. When they were found out, they might not have a good time in the future.

"Report! The fire on the city wall is too great to extinguish!"

"What did you use to put out the fire?"

"Go back to the commander and use water!"

"The turmeric oil cannot use water, water will only encourage the fire. You can prepare some sand and extinguish it with sand."

The soldier hesitated for a while because he hadn't heard of using sand to put out the fire. But he didn't dare to refuse to follow, and after saying a word, he stepped back and prepared.

"Battleman Wang!"

"exist!"

"You go and call some craftsmen in this city to repair the city gate!"

Looking at the devastated city gate, I suddenly felt that the damage I had built was too great, and the destruction was often easier than building it. This kind of thing will happen in the years to come.

"yes!"

Wang Zongwei immediately went down to arrange the matters.

"Captain Zhang, Captain Cao, and Captain Zou."

"exist!"

"You each lead 500 troops and 25 crossbows each, responsible for guarding the three gates east, west and north. Be sure to pay attention to safety and do not let those who are interested in mingle into the city. I will guard this south gate today!"

The south gate was the most damaged, and it would take two or three days to repair it, so he concentrated his troops here. The other three gates had crossbows guards. If there were people with intentions who wanted to have inappropriate thoughts, they would probably have to peel off the skin. His crossbows were not vegetarians.

"yes!"

After receiving the order, the three battalions commanders each ordered five hundred soldiers and headed towards the city gates they defended.

"Come!"

"exist!"

"You bring twenty people and bring this letter to Julu to prepare for Battalion Commander Lin. As soon as tomorrow morning, we will return to the relocation command building."

He handed the guards a letter with his seal on it. After the guards took the letter, they immediately called twenty people and prepared some dry food to return on horseback. If they were riding a horse, they would be able to arrive at Julu in one night.

"Others listened and spread the news that we occupied Changshan City and promised that we would not disturb the people, so that people would rest assured as usual."

In addition to arranging some defenses and surrendering troops, he was uneasy to appease the people. There were hundreds of thousands of people living in the city, which was much more than his 5,000 troops. If the people were unstable and had a resistance, he would not be in much mood to deal with it.

"yes!"

"Okay, the troops followed me to the county government. I want to collect the property of the Black Mountain Army!"
