"Tang Fujun, please use tea." When he came to the backyard of the county government, Zhang Jue said to Tang Zheng with a tea bowl.

"Master Zhang, you're welcome. You don't have to worry, since you have cooperated with us to take Linyu, you can rest assured that I will ask the Holy Lord for credit for you. ”

"Then there is Lao Fujun, I really didn't have the iron heart to follow Zhang Chun's rebellion, but Zhang Chun came to Linyu with a large army, and if I didn't obey me, I would be in trouble."

"Well, I know it all! By the way, Lord Zhang, please send officials to the street to maintain it, I am afraid that some Xiaoxiao will take advantage of the fire to rob and endanger the people. At the same time, he also told the people in the city not to be afraid, our Rinshan Army represents the imperial court, and will not oppress the good people for no reason. ”

"Yes, Mr. Fu, I'll arrange people." After speaking, Zhang Jue walked to the door and shouted outside, "Changyu, you come in." ”

After a while, Zhang Yu, who led Dian Wei and them to open the city gate, came to the back hall and said to Zhang Jue: "County Zun, do you have something to do with me?" ”

"Well, you lead the county's auxiliaries and servants to maintain law and order on the streets, and post a few notices to the people, saying that from now on, Linyu will be officially included in the jurisdiction of Youbeiping County." Zhang Jue said.

"Yes, I'll do it." After speaking, Zhang Yu turned around and left the back hall of the county government.

"Okay, Master Zhang, let's take our leave." Tang Zheng asked Zhang Jue to resign.

"Won't the prince stay for a while? The lower officials have already asked people to prepare wine and food, and they also ask the prince to appreciate his face. ”

"Lord Zhang, have you seen someone eating early in the morning? Besides, Linyu has just experienced the war, and there are many things that Lord Zhang has to deal with, so I don't have much to do. I know what Master Zhang is worried about, and what I Tang Zheng said will not go back on my word. After Linyu, it will still be managed by Lord Zhang as before, but some policies have to be in line with Youbeiping. ”

"That's definitely, definitely. Rest assured, I will definitely implement the policies issued by the government. ”

"That's good, I hope Lord Zhang will not live up to the expectations of the people of Linyu who will live up to the saints. Mr. Zhang, please stay! After speaking, Tang Zheng took Zhang Chao and Dian Wei and his party to the original Linyu garrison.

"Cheng Hu, what are our casualties in this battle?" Out of the back hall of the county ya, Tang Zheng asked Cheng Hu.

"Fu Jun, this time, because this is a surprise attack, our casualties are not very serious, only more than 30 brothers were killed in the battle, and only more than 400 people were injured, but they were all slightly injured, and none of them were seriously injured."

"That's okay, send people to send all the wounded soldiers back to Rinshan for medical treatment, and the families of the dead in the war must also be paid in place. It's all up to you, you know? ”

"Yes, Fujun!"

Tang Zheng and his entourage soon came to the station of the original Linyu defenders, although there was still some messiness, but after the repair of the Modao battalion, it had been much better, at least the stumps, broken arms and corpses left by the battle in the early morning were cleaned out.

Tang Zheng came to the temporary camp tent and beckoned everyone to sit down and said, "Now that Linyu has been taken by us, presumably Shanhaiguan is now in Zilong's hands!" As for the issue of garrisoning troops in Linyu and Shanhaiguan, I would like to hear your opinions. ”

"Fu Jun, what opinions can we have, we will listen to you whatever you arrange." Cheng Hu said.

"My plan is this, I want to redistribute the troops we are now stationed in each county, according to the original establishment we basically have nearly 10,000 garrisons in each county, and you also know how much it costs to feed so many large troops. At present, it is very difficult for us to support so many soldiers in Youbeiping, so I think that except for a few places where it is necessary to garrison troops, there are no garrisons. How about you guys? ”

"We are all subject to the arrangements of the king." Everyone said in unison.

"Alright then, I'll give you a rough idea of what I'm going to do now. I am going to transfer Cheng Mo and Guo Mingda to Junmi and merge them into one battalion, so that he can use the Great Wall as a line of defense to prevent Xianbei from attacking my right Beiping. In addition, Xu Dayou, who was handsome in defense, was transferred to Wuzhong and Wu Ge was combined into a battalion to garrison Wuzhong, and Xu Wu was no longer stationed. Tang Zheng said to everyone, and everyone nodded in unison to agree with Tang Zheng's decision.

Tang Zheng continued: "Rinshan and Tuyan are our base camps, and there will definitely be troops stationed here, so I plan to let Cheng Hu stay in Rinshan. Hearing Tang Zheng say this, Cheng Hu nodded in agreement.

"As for Haiyang, I plan to not need to garrison troops for the time being, one is that Haiyang is relatively close to Rinshan, and there is a situation where we can send troops from Rinshan, and second, we don't have any enemies on the sea now. So I transferred Brother Han and Huang Zhong to Feiru and asked them to join forces in a battalion to garrison Xu Wu. As for Linyu, it can only be handed over to Zilong at present. ”

"Report."

When Tang Zheng was discussing with everyone how to garrison the troops, an urgent report came out from outside, and Tang Zheng asked people to invite the herald in. After entering the camp, the person knelt down on one knee and said to Tang Zheng: "Report to the king, yesterday after the county lieutenant Zhao annihilated the reinforcements coming from Shanhaiguan to Linyu in Wulipo, he immediately led his troops to continue to march towards Shanhaiguan, and arrived at Shanhaiguan last night. Because it was late at night, the county lieutenant Zhao did not launch the siege, and early this morning, when the county lieutenant was preparing to attack the city, Yu Xiao, the commander of Shanhaiguan, led his troops to surrender, and we took Shanhaiguan without a single soldier. Now the county lieutenant Zhao asked the prince of the palace what should we do now. ”

"Hahaha, good! Zilong really deserves to be a tiger general! Send an order to Zhao Yun and ask him to reorganize the Dragon Bird Battalion and garrison Shanhaiguan! ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

Looking at the departing herald, Tang Zheng was in a good mood and said to everyone: "Now that Shanhaiguan is in our hands, what if his Zhang Chun's reinforcements come." Cheng Hu! ”

"The subordinates are here!"

"You immediately take the soldiers to Shanhaiguan to support Zilong!"

"Subordinates obey." After speaking, Cheng Hu turned around and walked out of the tent.

"Childe, since Shanhaiguan has been taken, why do you want to send Brother Cheng to take a trip?" Zhang Chao asked.

"We made such a big move in Linyu, do you think Zhang Chun doesn't know? And Xu Ji had already sent people to Yangle to ask Zhang Chun to send troops to help, I guess Zhang Chun knew that Linyu and Shanhaiguan would not send troops after they were lost, and he knew that even if he sent troops now, he would not be able to recapture these two places. But if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, even if he Zhang Chun does not come, we have to be prepared, after all, Zilong's subordinates are all cavalry, which is not very useful for defending the city, so I sent Cheng Hu to Shanhaiguan so that I can rest assured. ”

"That son, all the soldiers in Linyu have been transferred to Shanhaiguan, what should I do if Zhang Jue has any thoughts?"

"Don't worry, Zhang Jue can't make any waves. Even if he is ambitious and has no soldiers, what can he use against us? Just with his servants and auxiliaries? Tang Zheng said, seeing Tang Zheng say this, Zhang Chao also put his mind at ease.

"That's right, Childe. What to do with these captives? Zhang Chao asked suddenly.

"Ah, don't you say I forgot. By the way, how many people were captured this time? ”

"I don't know about this, do you know Brother Dian?" Zhang Chao asked Dian Wei, who shook his head.

"Alright, let's go, let's go to the prisoner camp." After speaking, Tang Zheng took Zhang Chao and Dian Wei and walked towards the prisoner camp.
