Dong Zhuo led the knights, escorted King Chen into the country, the soldiers of the branch country after hearing King Chen's order, they immediately gave up all hostile behavior, opened the city gate, to welcome the Han army, King Chen looked at his people majestically, but his heart was helpless lamenting, he was prepared in his heart, this may be his last time to inspect the country.

Zhang Wen did not follow Dong Zhuo to the Zhiguo, he thought that after the Han army entered the Zhiguo, he would no longer have to worry about the situation here, there was nothing better than a sword to solve the problem, with Dong Zhuo here, he would definitely be able to complete his orders, he asked those Ma Han generals to lead the way for them, launched an attack on many small countries in Erhan, in order to be able to eliminate Ma Han, they mobilized all their soldiers.

These small countries, without any resistance to the troops, Zhang Wen and Huangfu Song went all the way, with the banner of King Chen, easily broke through one small country after another, without encountering any resistance, it can even be said that the monarchs in many places are very happy to welcome them, the banner of King Chen, is still very useful, the position of Erhan is more important, Zhang Wen has long made up his mind to directly govern these two regions.

And King Chen hurried into the palace.

The prince of the world was wearing his upper body, carrying a thorn strip, kneeling at the palace gate, waiting for his father's return, King Chen and Dong Zhuo entered the palace, and saw the son who was kneeling at the gate, King Chen felt a pain in his heart, but frowned, and said angrily: "Do you want to bear the guilt of Jing now?" The captain persuaded you with kind words, why do you want to speak wildly? ”

The prince raised his head, with tears in his eyes, bowed to King Chen, and said, "The king forgives his sins!" ”

"Someone! Take it with me! King Chen shouted, Dong Zhuo hurriedly stepped forward, shook his head, and said: "The king is slow, after all, the prince is young and ignorant, why bother?" ”

King Chen heard Dong Zhuo so persuasive, pursed his lips, and was speechless, Dong Zhuo smiled and helped the prince up, and said: "I am the general of the Han Dynasty to protect the Huns, called Dong Zhuo, and the king is a confidant and friend, you get up first...", the prince looked at Dong Zhuo with some curiosity, King Chen frowned, and said: "This is your uncle!" ”

The prince bowed his hand, but said nothing.

King Chen also ignored him anymore, and directly issued an order to order the ministers to go to court.

The ministers who were worried about the destruction of the city and the destruction of the country, after being solved by the Han Dynasty, were not too happy, because they did not know the true intention of the Han Dynasty's march, and they did not know whether the current King Chen, or the previous King Chen, mainly because they were worried that King Chen had been coerced and had become a puppet of the Han Dynasty, when they walked into the temple worriedly.

I saw King Chen sitting on the top seat, King Chen looked neatly dressed, in good spirits, without any traces of persecution, which made the ministers feel a little calm, the ministers bowed one after another, King Chen nodded, frowned, and said: "I just went to see the Tai Lieutenant, just a few months, the rebels are so rampant, and even almost let Ma Han lose the country!" ”

"Are you ruling like this?"

King Chen said angrily, he changed the matter of coercing to go to a visit, and the ministers asked for guilt, and King Chen said: "Fortunately, the Han Dynasty is willing to help regardless of the past suspicions, so that we have no trouble of losing the country, however, Erhan can not tolerate his crimes, the Han soldiers are already crusading against the countries of Erhan, in the future, Erhan will no longer set up a king, and rule it with the country." ”

This so-called minister of state is naturally the Taishou sent by the Han Dynasty.

The ministers probably understood in their hearts that the Han sent troops this time, the price they had to pay, they pondered for a moment, wanted to oppose, but they didn't have any strength to resist the Han, not to mention that King Chen had already issued an order, they could only accept it, King Chen ordered Ma Han Shishu to pacify the surrounding counties, and asked Dong Zhuo to send troops to maintain the current law and order.

Dong Zhuo repeatedly refused, and finally reluctantly accepted, and the Han army was officially stationed in Mahan and was responsible for public security.

And Zhang Wen only passed less than half a month, he forcibly conquered the two Han countries by force, and after doing all this, he did not return to the branch, but led a small group of people and horses, surrounded the entire Sanhan region, and worked for half a month before returning to Youzhou, hurriedly playing to the imperial court, indicating that he had controlled the Sanhan region, and handed out a detailed map, waiting for the edict of the Son of Heaven.

After controlling Sanhan by force, it is natural to formulate officials, counties and so on, of course, these must be subject to the Son of Heaven, Zhang Wen did not dare to decide privately, he has only one task, defeat the enemy, and the rest of the things are left to the sages in the temple to be busy.

When the letter was delivered to Luoyang, it was almost the end of the year.

The Son of Heaven read Zhang Wen's handwritten letter, and took out the map, and checked them one by one, it is not difficult to conquer the Sanhan region, but how to govern it is a difficult problem, before, the Han Dynasty's control over the border fortress was weak, all because the territory of the Han Dynasty was too large, and it was difficult for the temple orders to reach such a distant place, but now the Han Dynasty is galloping through the canal everywhere, connecting the north and the south and the east and west.

It is not difficult to control Sanhan, but it is necessary to set up a state minister, and to control this area in general, it is necessary to reinvigorate the establishment of counties and deliver county orders and other officials, which is a major event worthy of the Son of Heaven's consideration.

The next day, the court meeting.

Under the leadership of Wang Fu, hundreds of officials went to court.

Wang Fu did not give the hundred officials a chance to impeach himself, directly said the situation in Sanhan, and asked the ministers to come up with ideas, Yuan Feng was the first to say: "Now, if you take the liberty of setting up counties, I am afraid that it will cause turmoil in Sanhan and make the previous achievements wasted. ”

"No, if you don't set up counties, according to the old customs, it will make it difficult to control the Sanhan region, or use the law of the Han Dynasty to govern, so that you can master the Sanhan as soon as possible, not to mention, the Sanhan army has no left, if you don't control it strongly at this moment, there will be a lot of trouble in the future..."

"If there are counties and many small countries, will it be difficult for my Han to send all the virtuous people to Sanhan?" Yuan Feng asked rhetorically.

"Set up a county, it will unite a small country, unify with a big country, and set up a county order, as for the county order, there are countless students of Taixue and Menzixue, these people are enough!" Wang Fu said directly, and then, he looked at the ministers, even if the ministers hated Wang Fu, but some of his political opinions were still good, and the ministers nodded, indicating their support for Wang Fu's decree.

The ministers looked at the Son of Heaven, of course, only the Son of Heaven could make the final choice.

"Then the county was re-established in Erhan, and the county was set up in Chenjun and Benjun, which were under the jurisdiction of Youzhou....."

"Send another person to sit in Mahan, thinking that he is the minister of state..."
