The first thousand six hundred and sixty chapters move north

The most prosperous Shangjing City in Khitan was ushered in killings. This was a ruthless massacre. Anyone who dared to resist violence would be ruthlessly crushed. However, the target of the royal army's violence was very clear, and all merchants and powerful families on the list were on the list.

At the beginning, not many people resisted. After all, from the equipment, you can tell that they belong to the personal guards of the imperial city and the Queen, who belonged to the supreme ruler of the Khitan, but gradually discovered something was wrong.

After these guards controlled their residences, the first thing they did was to plunder wealth and food. Even the warehouse with many guards and guards in the hospital was not spared, and all the valuable things in the house were cleaned up.

This is something that some people can't stand it. The eyes of merchants and powerful people are like goldfish's eyes. The figures of the guards are almost glaring out when they keep transporting their belongings.

In the eyes of the guards, these merchants and powerful people were like leeches that had been sucked with blood. They were now being squeezed from the inside out. These guards were also drawn from the homes of ordinary Khitan people, so they naturally would not have much sympathy for these powerful people.

Wherever there is "explosion", there is resistance. These powerful and merchants finally couldn't bear it anymore. For them, these wealth were all plundered by them. Why would they be robbed overnight?

What's more, which one of the powerful families is easy to meet? Resistance naturally appeared, especially the young people, who were very angry and did not expect that this was a change in the court. Even the elders of some families lost their minds when they saw the loss of wealth throughout their lives.

The first thing that resisted was the aristocratic class. They were an important part of the Khitan. Which family did not follow Taizu to conquer the world? From the day the Great Liao was established, they were the powerful and powerful Khitans, and they should enjoy the glory left by their ancestors.

The Khitan nobles raised their retainers and samurai. At this time, what they lost was not only the wealth between the powerful, but also the jobs of these retainers and samurai were gone. What is so great?

After all, the retainers and warriors are also families with families, and their families have to support them! They don’t know anything else, they can only do this. If these powerful people fall down, what else can they do?

In fact, they are the ones who want to do the most.

There are also some smart people among the powerful and powerful, and they can see the problem, but they are involuntarily "kidnapped" by these retainers and warriors. As long as someone takes action, the imperial guards will not be polite. Even if they massacre all the resistance, they will not let innocent people go.

Often, if one person resists, the entire mansion will suffer a catastrophe. From the head of the family to the slave, no one will be left. In the past, many people couldn't get in the luxurious gate, but now, it's harder to get out than climbing to the sky.

But there is one thing that the guards in the imperial city do not kill women, children and elderly people. This is the last bit of good intentions. On the steps, on the paths, in the halls, there are corpses everywhere and blood everywhere. This is a massacre and a cleaning.

These houses include nobles and powerful officials, and even relatives are no exception. The Xiao family was most seriously damaged, with nine out of ten families empty overnight. Xiao Hui and Xiao Jie, who knew everything, chose a clean room and looked at each other silently.

Even if they were bleeding in their hearts, they had to persevere, because they knew that this was a brilliant plan to bring the Khitan back to life.

But the cost of this clever plan is too heavy, no less than breaking one's own arm. Everything starts over and everything is to keep the Khitan going.

Similarly, Xiao Tali, who was surrounded by his personal guards, was not feeling well. These people were all old men who followed the late emperor, and some of them were also following the heroes who followed Taizu to conquer the country.

Their death was also considered a rebirth of the Khitan. Countless wealth poured into the imperial city, and carriages were constantly carrying goods, money and food into the imperial city. This was the beginning of Xiao Tali's plan.

Cutting off the rotten meat is just the beginning of the Khitan. Next, we have to fight for a future for the Khitan, which is not that easy.

Xiao Tali’s goal is very simple, and the plan is simpler. There is only one - moving north!

Zhang Jian had been operating in the northwest of Shangjing for many years. This was the way he took a long way after he became rich from the Khitan. The Khitan court, which had excess wealth, did not know where to spend money, and hoarded it in the treasury every year, which was a waste in his eyes.

However, Zhang Jian felt that it was a waste and could not be used. It was better to invest it in places where it needed, such as building the north of the Khitan.

There are not only Linhuang Mansions in Shangjing Road, but also vast grasslands. There are not only Khitans on the grasslands, but also many nomadic peoples. They are brave and good at fighting, and they have not been changed by the Khitans.

So Zhang Jian established cities in important areas on the grassland and increased the Khitan's control over the grassland. In this way, the grassland became a reserve for the Khitan just in case.

The cities of the Song Dynasty were mainly tall, but they were not only tall on the grassland, but mainly vast. The cities on the grassland were much larger than ordinary cities, more than five or six times larger than ordinary cities, or even seven or eight times larger!

It is said that it is a city, but it is just a tall rammed earth wall. The city is not all made of wooden buildings, but mostly tents, but only the city is used as a place for the grassland.

But such benefits are also reflected in the speed of material exchange, the exchange of technology and civilization, etc. are very convenient.

The herdsmen on the grassland can bring their whole family to the city with cattle and sheep, then go directly into the city, and set up camps and tents at the place designated by the government. This is a family. After they replenish the goods and exchange them, they can put away the tent and leave again.

Such convenience and speed are really a great thing for the people of the grassland, and the scale of these cities is also expanding.

Although there is no road, the horses are not slow on the grassland. There are no people who use their legs to rush on. Everyone comes and goes on horseback. No one is wasting time.

The most important thing now is how to move north. Although the scale of Shangjing City is not as large as that of Tokyo City back then, there are no fewer people and property. All of them need to be dispatched and coordinated. Without Zhang Jian in charge, it will never work.

In a last resort, Zhang Jian was left as the person who was in charge of the aftermath, and he could handle the matter of going to the capital and intercept the Song people's army here. The longer the time, the better, the longer the Song people would have no time to pursue.

But the number of Song soldiers is more than one million? How can the Song army concentrate all its forces in Shangjing?

Only by doing a scam beautifully and hiding it from the eyes of the world, Zhang Jian came up with a secret plan to conquer Chen Cang, using tonight's sudden change to cut off the "corrosive meat" of the Khitan, while disturbing the eyes of the Song people, and making the Song people focus all their eyes on Shangjing.
