Burial Ming

Chapter 25 Refugee Requires

After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian couldn't help but get angry. At that time, Li Lingfeng told him that Feng Tiancheng was cunning and insidious. He didn't take it seriously, but he didn't expect that this guy was really so insidious. As soon as he saw that Xing Tianjun was not easy to provoke and killed Zhao Datong, he immediately gave up helping Xiao Changshan and ran away first. When he came to Zhao Datong, he came to take the lead and washed Zhao Datong's nest.

Presumably Zhao Datong has accumulated a lot of wealth after standing here in the past few years. Now it's good. This boy took the lead and copied all these things one step in advance. Xiao Tianjian worked hard to turn over Zhao Datong this time, but it was equivalent to making a ready-made meal for this man.

After waving his hand to let the two boys and girls of the rest of their lives after the disaster be appeased, Xiao Tianjian stood angrily in Zhao Datong's stockade, looked at the lit houses, and scolded angrily, "Fuck Feng is really cruel! I will never give up with him about this matter!"

Xing Tianjun was busy for a long time. He collected the bodies of the people killed in Zhao Datong's stockade, put out the fire set by Feng Tiancheng, searched here, and only found a few pieces of unburned grain and thousands of iron that Feng Tiancheng didn't have time to pull away. The rest of the slightly valuable things are basically It has been washed clean by Feng Tiancheng, and nearly 350 men, women and children were killed in Zhao Datong's stockade, which shows how fierce this man is.

As a result of going all the way, he only got an empty stockade. Xing Tianjun couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. They cursed that Feng Tiancheng was dying, and quarreled to continue to fight Feng Tiancheng's stockade, and also copied Feng Tiancheng's nest.

After Xiao Tianjian calmed down, he thought about it carefully, gave up the idea of immediately hitting Feng Tiancheng, summoned several generals, and began to discuss things.

At dawn the next day, Xiao Tianjian and several of his men divided his troops and dispersed to the area of Dongye Town, quickly controlling the four iron ore mines around Dongye Town. These places used to belong to Zhao Datong's sphere of influence. Now that Zhao Datong is dead, and his remaining power has also been given by Feng Tiancheng. Once swept away, these mining sites have temporarily become a vacuum of power. Since Feng Tiancheng has copied Zhao Datong's nest, Xing Tianjun in these places can never let this person get involved. Otherwise, as Feng Tiancheng is a local, it is easy to take the lead and control these places before Xing Tianjun. If you want to take it back in the future, I'm afraid it will take another week.

For Xiao Tianjian, what is like money is not what he needs most. What he needs most now is that there are people in the territory.

Over the years, the people around Yangcheng County can be said to have suffered from the scourge of these local strong people. Many people have been destroyed by the families affected by these strong people. More people have to leave their hometowns and flee to the area of Zezhou or farther away, so that many villages in the southern mountainous areas of Yangcheng County have already It's a person who went to the house and was dilapidated.

Xing Tianjun is new here. Since he wants to take this as his base, there will be a lot of problems in the future, which will make Xiao Tianjian busy in a short time.

The reason why Dongye Town has a smelting word is that iron ore is produced here. A long time ago, the government had a special iron smelting supervisor here, and there was a special smelting furnace for iron smelting here, so there was this Dongye Town.

After the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court liberalized the mining and smelting industry and allowed private people to carry out mining and smelting. The government was only responsible for tax collection. In this way, China's smelting industry in the Ming Dynasty developed rapidly. However, on the whole, due to the southward movement of the economic center, the main iron producing areas of the Ming Dynasty moved to Jiangxi in the south. Huguang and Guangdong, and the main iron-producing areas in the north are in the Zunhua area in the east of Beijing.

For Dongye Town in Yangcheng, the scale of iron ore here is very small and basically cannot attract the attention of the court. In the early days, only some people mined iron and smelting here, gradually forming a small iron smelting gathering area centered on Dongye Town. However, compared with the large iron-producing land, the scale here is nothing. So it's not very valued.

After Zhao Datong occupied this area, he gradually controlled some local mining sites, forced the rich people who were originally in iron smelting in this area to leave the place, and controlled the iron smelting industry in this area. In this way, a large part of Zhao Datong's financial resources came from the local iron ore, which also made Zhao Datong in Yangcheng. The local area has become the most powerful pole, and even the government of Yangcheng County can only turn a blind eye to him.

To a large extent, Zhao Datong can feed more than a thousand of his subordinates who work for him, which can be said to be inextricably related to his control of the iron ore in this area.

But what no one expected was that Zhao Datong this time just wanted to help Xiao butchers to deal with Xing Tianjun, but he was actually destroyed by Xing Tianjun in the first battle. Suddenly, there was a power vacuum in the area of Dongye Town.

The reason why Xiao Tianjian turned thousands of miles in is that from Longzhou in the west of Shaanxi, he came here with so many men all the way. In fact, after listening to Li Lingfeng's words, he learned that the area of Yangcheng County produces both coal and iron, which finally decided to choose to go to the Yangcheng area first. Coal Fortunately, what Xiao Tianjian value most is the iron ore here. If an army wants to be strong, in addition to people, it also needs control resources. The most indispensable thing in the war is weapons except for people. If there is no iron in the base he occupies, it is okay to close to farm and solve the problem of food and clothing, but How to solve the equipment problem of soldiers is a big problem.

Therefore, since you choose a base, you must consider the problem of resources. Yangcheng County was finally selected. It is precisely because of the resources here. With the iron, many things will be easy to do in the future. In addition, the local terrain of Yangcheng County is very conducive to establishing a base there and deal with the government, so Xiao Tianjian finally chose this place.

Although Feng Tiancheng is insidious, his vision is still limited. He only cares about robbing Zhao Datong's wealth accumulated over so many years, but he did not expect to seize these iron ores and iron smelting furnaces first. In this way, Xiao Tianjian left a lot of strength.

For the takeover of Zhao Datong's industry, Xing Tianjun's current strength in the Yangcheng area basically did not encounter any resistance, so he took Dongye Town to control. Even the hard-hards did not dare to resist. They just destroyed two ironmaking furnaces and ran away together, and the remaining mining points Several ironmaking furnaces in Dongye Town soon fell into the hands of Xing Tianjun.

At this time, the news of Zhao Datong's death had already spread all over Dongye Town. The local miners and ordinary people were very nervous. Some people had begun to escape from here before the arrival of Xing Tianjun.
