As soon as he saw Lin Nan's Daxu, Zhang Liao hurriedly ran down from the city and went out of the city to greet him.

Seeing a red-robed general flying out of the city, Lin Nan expected it to be Zhang Liao, so Lin Nan quickly jumped off the command car.

Zhang Liao came to Lin Nan and was about to clasp his fists to salute, but was held by Lin Nan.

Holding Zhang Liao's arms, Lin Nan began to look at Zhang Liao carefully.

I saw that Zhang Liao's eyes were red, his face was haggard, his face was covered with dust, and he was bloody, his originally bright armor became filthy, but the red robe on his body was stained purple by blood.

Seeing that the originally surprised general had become so haggard, Lin Nan couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, and patted him on the shoulder excitedly.

Seeing Lin Nan looking at himself, Zhang Liao couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, his nose was sour, and he squeezed out two words from his nostrils: "Lord!"

"Wenyuan!"

Before the words fell, the two hugged each other tightly.

At this time, seeing that Lin Nan had arrived, Liu Ye, Zhao Yun and others also rushed over. Seeing the two hugging each other tightly, everyone was moved and nodded more than once.

After a while, Zhang Liao suddenly felt that he was out of shape, so he hurriedly took a step back, hugged his fists and saluted, and said, "Lord, Liao is out of shape." ”

And Lin Nan took another step forward, stroked Zhang Liao's hands and said, "Wenyuan, you have worked hard, Lin Nan is sorry for you." ”

As soon as he heard Lin Nan say this, Zhang Liao said angrily: "It is the duty of a general to protect the family and defend the country and fight on the battlefield, so Liao does not feel hard. ”

After listening to Zhang Liao's words, Lin Nan was relieved, and then, Lin Nan said: "Wenyuan, how are the casualties of the Third Division?"

Seeing Lin Nan asking about the casualties, Zhang Liao said gloomily: "The deputy division commander Song Tian died in battle, and the commander of the cavalry regiment, Zhao Chong, died in battle, and there are less than 2,000 people left. ”

"Alas!" Hearing Zhang Liao's words, Lin Nan couldn't help but sigh.

Such casualties. The formation is considered to be crippled, and the third division must be rebuilt.

Seeing Lin Nan's sad expression and solemn face, everyone was inconvenient to disturb. They all waited quietly.

After a while, Lin Nan said: "Outside Dingxiang City, choose a feng shui treasure land, build a hero's tomb, and bury the remains of all the martyrs." At the same time, with the hero's grave as the center, another martyr's cemetery was built to comfort the heroic souls of the martyrs. ”

After Lin Nan finished speaking, everyone nodded in goodness.

Immediately, Lin Nan said: "Gather all the remaining officers and soldiers of the Third Division, and I will review them." ”

After Lin Nan finished speaking, everyone was stunned, but they immediately understood.

In the sound of trumpets and drums. The remaining 2,000 officers and men of the Third Division were all there.

When Lin Nan saw it, most of them were wounded, and all of them had haggard faces and torn armor, and they couldn't see the appearance of the victors at all, because they were more like defeated prisoners.

As soon as he saw the remaining two thousand soldiers, Lin Nan's eyes turned red.

The battle in Dingxiang was more tragic than the battle of Shilipo.

As soon as they heard that the lord was going to inspect it, the 2,000 officers and soldiers took the initiative to form a large phalanx.

Boarding the command car, Lin Nan circled around this phalanx.

Get back to where you are. Lin Nan said loudly: "The heroes of the Third Division, the Predators of Bingzhou, please allow me to call you like this, because you have held Dingxiang. You have created a miracle.

It's just a small city, ten times the enemy, hold on for eight days without breaking, and the third division of the world is the only one!"

After Lin Nan finished speaking, the faces of the two thousand remnants finally showed a sense of glory of victory, and they shouted loudly: "Third Division! Third Division!"

After three sounds. Lin Nan continued: "You are amazing, and you have also paid a heavy price. Therefore, all the brothers of the Third Division, please accept Lin Nan's worship. After speaking, Lin Nan bowed deeply.

Seeing that the lord really bowed to himself, the two thousand soldiers were all moved and wept, and their eyes turned red.

Raising his head and looking at the sun, Lin Nan said again: "In order to witness your glory and commend your merits, therefore, I will give the third division the title of 'Iron Blood Legion'." ”

As soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, the two thousand soldiers shouted in unison: "Iron Blood Legion, Iron Blood Army, Iron Blood Army!"

When the echo landed, Lin Nan continued: "At the same time, all the officers and soldiers of the Third Division, whether they were killed or left, are not considered military merits, and they are all promoted to the first level!"

After Lin Nan finished speaking, the two thousand soldiers all thundered with joy and shouted, "Long live!"

If you don't count your military merits and you are promoted by one level, then if you count your military merits, you can't be promoted by several levels? Therefore, as soon as they heard about the promotion, the 2,000 remnants of the soldiers finally became happy.

In fact, no matter what Lin Nan said or not, these two thousand remnants of the army are all going to be promoted, because the third division has been disabled and must be rebuilt, and the reconstruction of the third division, these two thousand remnants are the backbone, so they all have to be promoted.

After that, Lin Nan led everyone into the city.

As soon as I entered the city, I saw the people of Dingxiang helping the old and the young, kneeling down on the side of the road in twos and threes.

Seeing this scene, Lin Nan hurriedly ordered Zhang Liao and others to help the people get up.

Seeing that the people had already gotten up, Lin Nan saluted and said: "Lin Nan is not talented, tired of the villagers suffering, Dingxiang can be preserved, all of them are your merits, so, please accept Lin Nan's worship." After speaking, Lin Nan bowed deeply.

However, after saying this, Lin Nan regretted it, this was obviously nothing to do for himself, because as soon as he saw Lord Assassin Shi saluting him, the people of Dingxiang City knelt on the ground again, saying "Don't dare", Lin Nan had to toss again.

Seeing that the people got up again, Lin Nan said: "Dingxiang is broken, and you have the merit of defending the city, so Nan decided that Dingxiang's taxes for next year will be exempted." ”

As soon as they heard about the tax reduction, the people of Dingxiang City bowed happily again, which made Lin Nan helpless.

When he arrived at Zhang Liao's Taishou Mansion, Lin Nan convened a meeting to deal with some post-war matters.

Liu Ye first reported the results of the battle: "In the battle this morning, the Xiongnu Zuoxian King Laji was killed, more than 30,000 Xiongnu soldiers surrendered, our army captured nearly 40,000 horses, countless armor, no military rations, except for the third division, our army has almost no losses. ”

After listening to the battle report, Lin Nan nodded and said: "Okay, the battle in the past few days has not been fought in vain, not only annihilated hundreds of thousands of Huns, but also captured tens of thousands. ”

After speaking, Lin Nan burst out laughing, and finally raised his eyebrows.

And when everyone saw Lin Nan's eyebrows dancing, they were helpless, because Lin Nan's informality was famous, but in the face of such a result, everyone was also very excited.

While being happy, Lin Nan said: "It's just that in this battle, our state army also suffered heavy casualties, among them, the third division and the bear storm army are the strictest, so we have to deal with some post-war problems properly." ”

After Lin Nan finished speaking, everyone nodded yes.

Immediately, Tian Chou said: "Lord, what about the tens of thousands of prisoners?"

Lin Nan thought about it and said, "Let's take it back to Jinyang first, and then talk about it when we return to Jinyang." ”

Then, everyone talked about a bunch of messy things, and seeing that those things were not very important, Lin Nan let them solve it by themselves.

He is now a thorn in history, how can he manage everything, and he has to delegate power appropriately.

After everything was handled, Lin Nan asked Zhang Liao to select some men and horses from various departments to rebuild the Third Division.

After returning to the clouds and repairing for a few days, Lin Nan finally returned to Jinyang City after a long absence.

And after returning to Jinyang City, Lin Nan almost didn't become "Lin Crazy".

Because a bunch of problems after the war were finally placed in front of him: the prisoners had to be dealt with, the army had to rest, the dead soldiers had to be compensated, and what made Lin Nan most depressed was that there were still people who came to ask for money.

It turned out that it was none other than some squires and wealthy businessmen in Hanoi who came to ask for money.

Originally, these people really didn't want money, because they really didn't have much confidence in Lin Nan, a scholar, and at the same time, they didn't have much interest in the bitter cold land of Bingzhou, but they repelled the invasion of the Huns twice, which made Lin Nan famous, and his reputation rose to the sky at once, and these creditors gradually looked at Lin Nan differently, and they all fell in love with Bingzhou, the "treasure land of Nanshui". ”

They first found Su Shuang, who was in charge of the business of the state, but as soon as they saw these IOUs, Su Shuang himself did not dare to make a good claim, so he had to come to Zhen Yi, who was in charge of finance and taxation, to discuss, Zhen Yi saw that this matter was not easy to do, so he directly reported to Xun Yu. And as soon as Xun Yu saw the lord's IOU back then, he didn't know what to do, so he ordered them to come directly to Lin Nan. (To be continued.) )
