Chapter 101 Collect Hai and care for Guan Yu

After returning to Donglai and staying at ease for half a month, Donglai entered stability in all aspects, and Xu Ding then set off for Weiyuan Island.

I haven't been here for almost a year, and the island has changed a lot.

There are villages everywhere, and there are as many as 160,000 immigrants alone, and there are six or seven in the county seat.

The Lieutenant of the Fourth Army and the Lieutenant of the Fifth Army have both expanded to as many as six or seven thousand men respectively with the Lieutenant of Hengshui, otherwise it would be difficult to manage Weiyuan Island.

"It's been hard work." After listening to the reports of everyone on the island, Xu Ding said sincerely.

At that time, Zhang Fei's Fourth Army was taken away, and later Guan Yu was mainly located on Weiyuan Island, and the pressure on the Fifth Army can be imagined.

Fortunately, Guan Yu was diligent, conscientious, and did an excellent job of guarding the town.

After walking around, he found that the island was very well built, and Xu Ding then asked: "By the way, where is Guan Haiguan, bring it up and let me see it." ”

In the first battle of Yingling, Xu Ding broke the 20,000 Yellow Turban Army of Guanhai, and Zhang Fei captured him alive, because he refused to surrender, Xu Ding sent him to the island.

Because he was an important criminal, Guan Yu was locked up, but because Guan Hai's temper was very impulsive, it was a bit similar to Guan Yu himself.

Therefore, Guan Yu also has some sympathy and good feelings for this one.

I often go to see him, and I also learn martial arts with him.

So Guan Hai was proposed, and respectfully saluted Guan Yu first, and then saluted Xu Ding.

This made Xu Ding a little interesting, when did Guan Hai speak so well.

So he asked, "Guan Hai, how are you doing after you go to the island?" ”

Guan Hai said: "Thanks to the blessing of Captain Guan, everything is fine." ”

Xu Ding glanced at Guan Yu, but he didn't expect Guan Yu to conquer Guan Hai, so he asked again: "Now that your great teacher is dying, the matter of Taiping Dao is just a child's play, what do you want to say." ”

Guan Hai also knew about the inland affairs from the mouths of Guan Yu and others, and knew that Zhang Liang and Zhang Jiao died in Jizhou, and the Yellow Turban Army failed, so he sighed and said:

"What the prince said in the past has come true, and he admires it, but now he wants nothing more than to become a good citizen on the island and live a good life on the land."

Guan Hai is very clear about the changes on Weiyuan Island, because he is the first batch of yellow turbans to go to the island, and his subordinates have now become good citizens on the island, farming with peace of mind, and living a comfortable and stable life.

Donglai's law takes care of them everywhere, making them feel at home, compared to before, this is a heavenly existence, and now it is impossible to let them leave and kill them.

They all want to put down roots here.

"It's a pity to let you farm, now this government gives you a chance, you are willing to be a general under Guan Duwei and become a part of the protection of Weiyuan Island." Xu Ding looked at Guan Hai, who was obviously a little surprised.

When Xu Ding captured him, he did have the intention of surrendering himself.

At that time, Xu Ding captured more than 10,000 of his subordinates, and he could get a batch of troops by recruiting him. At that time, I was valuable.

Now he is alone, and he has no influence on this island, which is dispensable for Xu Ding.

So when Xu Ding said this, Guan Hai was still a little surprised.

I was excited in my heart, and I hurriedly said: "Xie Fujun, Guan Hai is willing to assist Guan Duwei and swear to defend Weiyuan Island to the death." ”

"Good! Since then, I have added another fierce general to Donglai. Xu Dingxi said.

Although Guan Hai is not as good as Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, his martial arts are not weak, and he is at the same level as Zangba, or even a little stronger.

After dealing with the matter of Guan Hai, Xu Ding asked Lu Qian to take him to the water village of the water army.

The water village is very large, and there are not only barracks but also shipyards in it.

Today's craftsmen are proficient in the process and craftsmanship of shipbuilding, and build some small and medium-sized ships.

This time, Xu Ding was going to take them to ponder and build a big ship.

So this time, Xu Ding is going to stay on the island until the Chinese New Year.

Of course, at the same time, the island is carrying out experiments and practices in smelting.

A month passed, and on this day, Xu Ding received a letter from Huang County.

Taking it apart, Xu Ding closed his eyes and muttered for a while, and then said, "Go and inform Yun Chang and let him come over." ”

Guan Yu quickly came over and asked, "What is the important matter for the lord to ask Yun Chang to come over?" ”

Guan Yu knew that Xu Ding had been doing experiments in the water village and smelter of the water army all these days.

Xu Ding said: "Yun Chang, it's the New Year now, and I'm going to return to Donglai, and I want to take you back this time." ”

Go back to Donglai together?

Guan Yu has no opinion on this, it is the same for him in Weiyuan Island and Donglai County.

Xu Ding knew that Guan Yu didn't care, so he continued: "By the way, let's go back to Hedong together!" ”

Hedong!

It's been a long time since I've heard these two words mentioned.

The place where he was born and raised, how long has it been since he went back.

Thinking of this is a sigh.

At the same time, I was a little ashamed.

Then there is a deep sense of longing.

His children, parents, wife and children are fine.

His heart was a little throbbing, but Guan Yu was not good at expressing himself, so he asked, "Lord, why do you want to go to Hedong?" ”

Xu Dingdao: "Just now Zhicai and others wrote a letter saying that the imperial court will make meritorious contributions at the end of the year, and will reward me Donglai at that time, and Huang Tingshi, General Yizhen, and General Gongwei all asked for merit for me at the same time, so the Son of Heaven summoned me to Beijing."

Thinking that Yun Chang's hometown is Hedong, it is better to go north to Hedong once and take your family over here. ”

"Thank you, lord!" Xu Ding said that it was a way, but the division had to pass through Hongnong County, and then turn around to enter Hedong County, and the road was not close, and Guan Yu didn't think it was a gesture.

The only reason is that Xu Ding has always remembered his affairs.

At that time, Xu Ding was rewarded by the Son of Heaven in the capital, and when he went to Hedong, he would help him support the field and deter the Qian family in Hedong.

So Guan Yu couldn't say how moved he was, but a thousand words were only between a few words.

It's just hypocrisy to say too much.

"That's it! Yun Chang in my memory is a reckless man, not a twisted man. Xu Ding smiled and said:

"Speaking of which, I have treated you badly, if you hadn't guarded Weiyuan Island, your credit would be no less than that of Yide."

This is true, because Guan Yu stayed on Weiyuan Island, this time Guan Yu didn't have half of the credit, even if he made a contribution in the entire Donglai, he only had to work hard.

That's why Xu Ding said this.

"The lord can entrust me with such a heavy responsibility, and Yu feels that this trust is more important than credit." After holding it for a long time, Guan Yu still blushed and said.

"Hahaha! Then Yun Chang prepare, and we will go back to Huang County today. ”

took Guan Yu back to Huangxian, didn't stop in a hurry, and immediately set off for Luoyang.

went to Luoyang, accompanied by Fazheng.

It's been a year since this kid was brought out, and in order to be his teacher, Xu Ding still hopes that this guy will go back to reunite with Fa Yan during the New Year.
