During the wheat harvest season, all parts of Guanzhong were busy, and watching the new grain continue to enter the warehouse, the hearts of the officials of the Huashan Army who had been hanging since the beginning of the year were finally relieved at this moment.

Thanks to the vigorous restoration of water conservancy facilities a year ago, and at the same time intensive cultivation, in addition to the locust plague, God also helped vigorously. Therefore, this year's bumper grain harvest in Guanzhong has finally solved the urgent need of the Huashan army.

It is said that there is food at home, and there is no panic in their hearts, and it is even more true for Li Xin and them, the high-ranking officials of the Huashan Army. Although you can get a lot of food just by selling salt and iron and trading, you can only maintain the bottom line after all, and it is unlikely that you will have a surplus.

Not to mention the action of the army, after all, as soon as the three armies move, the money and food will be consumed like flowing water. The already thin family foundation can't withstand a few consumptions at all. Now that the warehouses are full, it's time for great things.

After finishing the harvest, Wang Meng lost a lot of weight, and deliberately rushed from Chang'an to the old camp of the new army to report to Li Xin. However, he knew that Li Xin's affairs were confidential here, so he also came quietly.

"In general, now all parts of Guanzhong, especially the official warehouses in Chang'an City, are already full! To be honest, if it weren't for our low tax rate, I'm afraid that the warehouses would not be enough! Even so, this year's harvest, together with the Department of Commerce and the Salt and Iron Monopoly, is more than enough to support a whole year's consumption. In the military tent, Wang Meng said to Li Xin.

Li Xin looked through the account books he brought, and already had a bottom in his heart, nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone has been busy for more than a year, and now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief!" ”

"Yes! At least, it's much more down-to-earth! However, if you want to use troops, you still have to fight quickly, otherwise, if it drags on for a long time, our little money will not be enough to consume! Unless it's three years of accumulation, in that case, it's possible for you to fight for years! However, thinking of what Li Xin was going to do next, Wang Meng was obviously a little worried!

"You can rest assured about this, I have my own measure! The battle has begun, and I expect it to be completely over in four months. It just so happens that you came over today, so I don't bother to go back to you! You send someone to support a part of the military rations from the official warehouse, and I will send someone to quietly send it to Longguan and other places to hoard, and when the amount is about the same, it will be the day of action! Li Xin knew what he was worried about, so he couldn't help but smile and then said.

"That's good! I'll arrange it right away when I get back! ”

"Now that you're here, let's stay for a while! I'm just going to take you to see the results of our training over the past few days, so that you can feel a little more confident! With that, Li Xin led him towards the outside of the camp, towards the valley in the direction of Huashan.

Since some of the training sessions were confidential, in order not to let outsiders know about the situation, it was necessary to choose a safe place. On both sides of the road leading to Huashan, there are large and small valleys, which are remote and uninhabited, and they are the most suitable.

Wang Meng knew that Li Xin had a secret here, but he didn't know what the specific situation was. Now that he has been taken around, he is really much more relieved, and when he comes back, he no longer has a worried look.

"If I knew you had arranged it so properly, I wouldn't have to worry about it in vain!" After returning to the Zhongjun tent, Wang Meng sighed.

"Hehe, the means are complete, but things are dead, and people are alive. In the end, it's up to us to see how this battle will be fought. So, even though these things are in place and the training is not short, I am still not 100% sure. However, if this battle is successful, officials sent to Qinzhou and other places are indispensable, at this point, you should prepare in advance! Li Xin was not too optimistic, and after thinking about it, he said to him.

"I know that when I go back, I will choose the right people and prepare them secretly! You're busy here, so I won't stay long! After Wang Meng finished speaking, he prepared to rush back to Chang'an.

"General, the urgent paperwork sent by General Liu Staff!" At this moment, Tu Qi ran in from outside the camp, holding an official document in his hand, and said.

"Oh, Liu Xiaohai sent it? Could it be that something is going on over there? Let's stay for a moment and see what happens! Hearing this, Li Xin hurriedly stopped Wang Meng.

When he opened the official document and read it, he finally understood what was going on!

"Let's all take a look!" Li Xin rubbed his forehead and handed the official document to Wang Meng and the others.

"Hey, there's something going on in Shangdang County? Feng Yang actually drove away the Taishou Duan Gang sent by the Yan Kingdom? Still occupy Anmin City, claiming to be too guarded? He sent men to submit to us? After Wang Meng read the official document, he raised his head and looked at Li Xin and said in surprise.

"Yes! This Feng Yang wants to submit to us, you say, do we accept it or not? Li Xin nodded, looked at the two, and said.

"In the opinion of your subordinates, you should accept it!" Tu Qi thought for a moment and replied first.

"Oh? Tell us what you think! Li Xin said curiously.

"First of all, Feng Yang came to surrender, which is a good thing for the prestige of our Huashan Army. Of course, the most important thing is that Shangdang County is located in the east of Hedong County, in the middle of the Taihang Mountains, and it is connected to Hedong and Pingyang, Taiyuan and other counties in the west, and you can enter and exit the Central Plains to the east. This is a critical place, and if we hold it in our hands, we will have countless benefits! ”

"Although your words are reasonable, there is one thing that you have not said, that is, whether this Feng Yang is sincerely obedient. Moreover, have you ever thought that this Feng Yang chased away the Taishou of Yan State, which is the enemy of Yan State. At this time, he took refuge in us, just to find a backer. If we accept his submission, we will be enemies of the Yan Kingdom. We are about to start a war with Fu Qin now, if we anger Yan Guo again, we will definitely be attacked on both sides, and the pressure will increase greatly! As soon as Tu Qi finished speaking, Wang Meng said, obviously, he was cautious.

"Jing Luo thinks it's unacceptable?" Li Xin did not directly state his attitude, but asked.

"It's not unacceptable, it's just that the timing is wrong! If we say that Fu Qin has been eliminated now, and we don't have a strong enemy in the west, we can naturally accept it. But now that the elimination of Fu Qin is the most important, let's try to maintain peace in the east! Wang Meng shook his head and said.

"You both have a point! However, I think it should be accepted! There are two reasons, one is that no matter whether we accept Feng Yang's submission or not, with Hanoi and Liyang descending to the Yan Kingdom, we are already bordering the Yan Kingdom, and the other party will not be so honest and be neighbors with us! Second, if we want to eliminate Fu Qin, this is an established thing and cannot be changed, but Fu Qin is on guard on the west side of Longguan. So, I need a place to divert their eyes and let them let their guard down, and it's just right to go to the party! Li Xin pondered for a moment before he said.

"Feng Yang, I don't know much. However, judging from the two points you have said, it seems that there are many advantages to accepting his submission. In that case, I have no objection to it! But how are we going to deal with this? After thinking about it for a while, Wang Meng finally agreed.

Since the Huashan Army has grown to the present, it has basically not met anyone who has taken the initiative to take refuge. Therefore, such a problem is in front of me, and I really have no experience.

Of course, according to the methods of other places, I am afraid that it is to directly grant an official position, give Feng Yang a false name, and let him actually control that place.

But Huashanjun obviously would not do this, and Li Xin always felt that since it was his own territory, it had to be actually controlled, not nominal. Shangdang is another important place, and it would be great if it could be controlled in his own hands.

It's just that Feng Yang may not be willing. If Li Xin really thought that if he was obedient, he could arrange the personnel of the party at will and control everything in the party, then it would be too naïve. What's more, this Feng Yang has also left a name in history.

According to historical records, this Feng Yang should have been expelled from Yan Guo Taishou Duan Gang in the eleventh year of Yonghe, that is, at the end of this year. After that, he immediately asked Jiang Zuo to surrender, then to Zhang Ping of Bingzhou, and then was later defeated by Yan and surrendered to Yan.

In short, this guy, like most grass kings of this era, is very capable of seeing the wind and making the rudder.

"If my expectations are correct, this Feng Yang should not only ask us to submit to the table! Anyway, our lowest bottom line is just to ask that the land of the party not fall into the hands of the enemy. Other than that, it doesn't matter if he throws himself on us or not. Let's stabilize him first, and then solve his problem after solving Fu Qin. Li Xin thought about it and decided to do something special!

"In that case, how about we add him a position of party guard and staff general?" Wang Meng understood what he meant, and immediately said.

"Not only do you have to add, but you also have to do it with great fanfare! Two days later, I personally took people to Hedong, where I personally met with this Feng Yang and issued his appointment. Li Xin nodded and said meaningfully.

"Alright, I'll go and prepare the letter of appointment! At the same time, let people publicize it! Wang Meng laughed.

After the three of them had discussed it, they dispersed.

Immediately, Li Xin summoned Zhou Tong and Li Erhei over and quietly gave the order.

Four days later, the entire Guanzhong knew about Feng Yang's return.

Ordinary people can't think of so much, they just think that the Huashan Army is so powerful, it is natural for people from afar to come down. In addition, it can be said that the wind and rain are smooth now, and many of the promises of the Huashan Army have been fulfilled, and the people are more supportive of the Huashan Army.

In this way, Li Xin's status in domestic and foreign affairs has been raised to a new height. Everyone is naturally more and more confident in the prospects of the Huashan Army. Under such circumstances, Li Xin set off for Hedong to meet Feng Yang.
