A few days passed by, and a explosive news spread throughout Xiuyan Prefecture as quickly as possible, spreading throughout Xiuyan Prefecture. Han Jianzhou died with almost the slightest injury, and then attacked and captured the Anguang County County Town at night!

Night attack, another night attack!

This is not surprising at all. At night, the cowlin guns and bronze cannons in the hands of the defenders of Anguang County could not exert their great power.

Otherwise, Han Jianzhou would have been able to do anything to go down to the county town if he was on the city wall in broad daylight. No matter how intrigue Han Jianzhou was, he would not have been able to do the feat of dozens of personal soldiers who died.

Even Anguang County had known for a long time that Han Jianzhou was good at night attacks. Under the influence of various Korean thieves who came to restore their freedom and exempted usury when they came to them, Anguang County had been very strongly guarding against night attacks. Even the soldiers who watched the night out every night did not rely on those grassroots soldiers, but were elite children from the gentry and powerful, and brought servants of the profit-seeking level to defend and patrol.

But this night attack was easily lost.

Just as dozens or hundreds of elite soldiers under Han Jianzhou were climbing the city wall and fighting fiercely with the defenders, a large number of county towns were lost in the urban buildings near the city wall... Han Jianzhou had already taken down the county town and shouted.

Only simple shouting will have no effect on the fighting defenders, but the grassroots soldiers stationed nearby are greatly affected. They are still fighting on the city walls, and they are still robbing battles.

Many soldiers who just got up did not even wear cotton armor, carrying spears or knives, went to open the city gate in groups, and even stabbed friendly troops who were still fighting with Han Jianzhou's personal soldiers!

The grassroots soldiers who have been brainwashed for many days of public opinion know that as long as Han Jianzhou wins, they will be happy...

In the future, we will no longer be slaves who are allowed to be killed by the men. The usury on our backs can be easily eliminated without having to spend all our money to pay it back, and we may not be able to pay it back.

Therefore, the children of gentry and powerful elites who defended the city, plus their soldiers who were at the level of profiteering, collapsed quickly. At that time, the defender was a family with a relatively good reputation. The elite leading the army also knew that Han Jianzhou was not a random killer, and he surrendered when he saw that the situation was unstoppable.

Then the city gates opened wide, and the army trained by thousands of county-level tyrants came to the scene. Han Jianzhou led a thousand personal corps, and the surrendered army to take over the county town.

This process broke out several more battles, because Han Jianzhou's reputation was there, and the landlords and gentry who did not do much evil and were better would lose their wealth at most, and it was not too serious for them. Such gentry basically surrendered if they did not resist.

But in the fish countryside, the gentry and landlords who bullyed the market and had a broken reputation would rather die than surrender. However, they did not cause any trouble. The strong servants who followed them to make profits knew that the situation was going to go, so they fled directly.

Just relying on the children of those families to fight, even the county army that surrendered to Han Jianzhou could not defeat it.

In this turmoil, hundreds of people died, and the most died were the gentry and landlords who were more evil.

When these news spread across Xiuyan Prefecture and the entire Xiuyan Prefecture, not to mention grain merchants like Wang Yao and Zhang Yiwen in the prefecture city were restless, even the strongest top tyrants like the Tang, Shen and Liu were unable to sit still.

The three private soldiers guarding Xiuyan Prefecture from all over the country were quickly retracting and withdrawing back to Xiuyan Prefecture.

Xiuyan Prefecture's current main river channel network is full of fleets of sailing.

In Shangxi County, in the main tent of the militia camp, facing the several children of Shangxi Hao clan who rushed to seek comfort, Wei Wenguang laughed loudly, "Brother Lu, Brother Yan, Brother Guo, you don't need to be so nervous."

"No matter how much the Korean thieves in Anguang County are, we can be at peace with Shangxi. At most, we need a few people to give up some foreign wealth."

"The Korean thief went to Anguang County, just because the county soldiers surrendered, and they cooperated with each other. If several brothers could give up some foreign wealth, such as taking out a batch of usury IOUs to burn it, and promise more servants, and perform well, they would be exempted from their slaves after the war, which would ensure everything."

Wei Wenguang is still very satisfied with his second brother's current development scale in Anguang. Although he proposed the big plan and the second brother is just an implementer, the implementer is also very important. If the person is not good, pointing out a good development plan to him, it will develop into a mess.

At this stage, the development period he needs to strive for is stable, as stable as Mount Tai.

Standing in front of him, the three young scholars, Lu, Yan and Guo, were from the top three wealthy families in Shangxi County.

Wei Wen recruited 10,000 soldiers, all of whom were from tenants or other small handicraftsmen with families, 50% of them were controlled by three families. Before the civil unrest occurred, 50% of them were young and strong, 50,000 good men, and the families behind them were all living by eating the food of these three families.

Because of this, after becoming the deputy head coach of the militia, the three young scholars did not show up in the militia even if they did not take care of the militia. They were still full of confidence and felt that they could rely on the huge influence accumulated in the past to kill the militia.

In addition, the middle-level members sent by the three families are their trusted servants, so they are confident that no matter how elite the militia is trained, Wei Wenguang is also making wedding dresses for them.

Since the establishment of the militia, all kinds of materials and equipment have been provided vigorously by three companies, and even took the initiative to join forces to reject talents that other families want to send in.

The three surnames Lu, Yan and Guo represent the top wealthy families in Shangxi, but there are other senior leaders below the top. Just like the three surnames Tang, Shen and Liu are respected, but the Wang Yao and Zhang Yiwen families, who are ranked ten above the top ten, can also sweep out huge power.

They all felt that Wei Wenguang was trying his best to train elite soldiers for the three families, but in fact they didn't understand. Once the killing weapon of the field was released, no matter how much influence and prestige the three families had in Shangxi, they would collapse instantly.

Today, after hearing the situation in Anguang County, the three young scholars first discussed and argued with others within the family for a while before hurriedly came to the militia to ask Wei Wenguang whether the morale of the military could still stabilize.

Wei Wenguang spoke up and was just a fool.

This fool also made the three young scholars' expressions uncontrollably entangled and painful.

The three families of Lu, Yan and Guo are the top wealthy families in Shangxi, but their level of playing is far less high-end than Tang, Shen and Liu, who are at the peak of a state. They only have a small river that barely irrigated and some artificial canals. They have no developed river transportation. What they usually eat is more land wealth, and the trade mainly involves land transportation.
