Chapter 200: Public Security

The beacon fire lasted for three months, and the family letter was worth 10,000 dollars.

Li Xinchen, who only learned this poem in a textbook in his previous life, did not expect that he would fully understand this emotion when he arrived in this era.

The war has just begun, and there is still no time before it ends, maybe two or three months, maybe two or three years, and Li Xinchen can't even give an approximate date. Therefore, when he saw this letter, Li Xinchen was somewhat emotional.

I don't know where and when the next time I see the letter?

Li Xinchen, who grew up in the era of peace, deeply felt this unforgettable pain for the first time, but now he has no choice but to turn back and be a coward, so he can only grit his teeth and continue to move forward.

Li Li'er is not very literate, mainly because when Professor Li Cheng gave Li Xinchen to Li Xinchen, she listened to it and learned it, but in this era, literate women are rare, and most of them are concentrated in powerful families.

Although there are only a few lines in the family letter, Li Xinchen can see that these are all written by Li Li'er herself, and for a girl who is only hundreds of literates, these words can even be said to be all she knows.

"When my brother saw the letter, after my brother went, I missed it day and night, I was afraid that my brother was thousands of miles away, and I didn't know how to know the cold, warmth, hunger, and hunger where my brother was, and I was afraid that the battlefield would have no eyes, and I couldn't sleep at night. Li'er was cared for and considerate by Mrs. Xiao in Jiankang Mansion, and there was no need for Brother Ah to worry, but Brother Ah could kill the enemy on the battlefield and make meritorious contributions, and triumph soon. I also hope that my brother will reply when he sees the letter, and I hope that my brother's letter will last for a long time! ”

Li Xinchen slowly folded the family letter, stuffed it back into the envelope, and then solemnly put it into his arms, as if as long as this family letter was there, his heart would be able to beat endlessly.

——————————--

The rays of the setting sun shone on the tall castle heads, turning half of the walls red. The armor soldier standing at the head of the city looked solemn, and the spear in his hand pointed straight at the sky, as if to pierce the clouds that were getting lower and lower.

This is the important town of Jingzhou - public security.

The public security connects Han in the east, Bashu in the west, Xiaoxiang in the south, and Xiangyu in the north, which is the throat of the river and the thoroughfare of all directions, so it is also called "the hole of the world", which means that no matter from the south to the north, or from the east to the west, it is indispensable to pass through this place.

It is precisely because of the important geographical location here, so it has always been a place for soldiers to fight, the original name of this place is "Youjiangkou", and the name "Public Security" comes from the Three Kingdoms, here is where Liu Bei Liu Liu Xuande was stationed in the Battle of Chibi three hundred years ago, when Liu Bei was the general Zuo, so he took the meaning of "Zuo Gong camped here" and named it "Public Security", of course, it also means that Jingzhou, the big rear stability that Liu Bei finally obtained.

Later, because important towns such as Jiangling and Xiangyang were often in the hands of the Southern Dynasties, the Southern and Northern Dynasties often confronted each other along the Han River rather than the Great River, and the Southern Dynasties maintained a certain advantage over the North for a long time from the late Eastern Jin Dynasty to the early Liu Song Dynasty - this can be seen from the fact that the Northern Expedition repeatedly entered the Central Plains at that time, rather than the Northern Dynasty went south to Jinghu - so the public security was lonely here for a while.

However, later, as Xiliang took Jiangling as the capital, Nanchen naturally began to re-attach importance to the defense of towns along the river such as public security and Songzi, and among these towns, public security was the most important, and even the governance of Nanchen Jingzhou was set up in the public security, but because compared with the public security, Songzi, which is across the river from Jiangling, and Yidu on the west side are closer to Xiliang, so Fan Yi, the assassin of Jingzhou, usually travels between these two cities on weekdays, but the public security does not stay for many days.

Of course, Fan Yi is not in the public security, and it does not mean that Fan Yi does not attach importance to the public security, on weekdays, it has always been Fan Yi's left and right henchmen or even the descendants of the Fan family who stay in the public security, otherwise it is impossible for Fan Yi to let go of his hands and feet to and from Songzi and Yidu.

This time the same is the case, Fan Yi personally led the army to Yidu, and it was his nephew Fan Chang who was in charge of the public security, Fan Chang's official position was not big, just a Zhonglang general, and he was not even a miscellaneous general, but because the main force had been led to Yidu by Fan Yi, most of the generals who were good at fighting followed Fan Yi together, and only more than 1,000 soldiers and horses were left in the entire city, leaving Fan Chang a Zhonglang general is also reasonable.

"This is the police?" Li Xinchen reined in the war horse outside the city, looking at the city gate not far away, the red flag symbolizing Nanchen on the city head fluttered in the wind, and on both sides of the Chen character flag, there were also "Fan" character flags on the left and right, one on behalf of Jingzhou Thorn Shi Fan Yi, and the other on behalf of Fan Chang, the guard of the public security at this time.

"Yes, the world's confucius, Jingzhou public security, look at the front of this place, the river is extended, and it is really a thoroughfare." Xiao Shilian raised the whip in his hand, and said with a smile, he has not seen this public security city from a book for the first time, and today is the first time he has seen it, and he has some emotion.

Pei Zilie interrupted Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian: "The head of the public security city is flying the banner of Fan, which shows that it is still Fan Chang who guards the city." Fan Yi clearly didn't want to make us happy, and Fan Chang didn't need to say it. What should we do? ”

"Needless to say, of course it's into the city!" Xiao Shilian looked at the public security city with interest.

Since the Baling camp came out, this partial division led by Pei Zilie has been marching for a day and a half, and in order to hurry, there was no village to find a place to stay last night, so they were working in the wilderness.

Of course, in other words, this was originally the front line, and it had pursued a policy of fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness for many years, which was the same as Zhongli and other important towns of Nan Chen on the Huainan front, and it would be difficult to find one or two villages around here.

After a day and a half of tossing and turning, although it was not enough to exhaust these strong soldiers, everyone was an ordinary dusty servant, with an unconcealable tired look in his eyes.

What I need most now is to find a stable place to stay and have a good night's rest.

And the public security city in front of you is obviously the best and only choice.

"Into the city?" Pei Zilie suddenly frowned slightly, after all, Fan Chang's attitude is not known now.

And it is more likely that they do not have a good impression of them, and in order to keep their voice as quiet as possible, they did not notify the town in front of them when they opened, so it is very likely that Fan Chang did not know about their existence yet. At this time, entering the city with such fanfare, are you sure that you will not be shot down by Fan Chang directly with a random arrow?

Li Xinchen smiled and said, "That's right, let's go directly to the city!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at Pei Zilie's confused expression, patted the armor on his body unhurriedly, and pointed to the banner behind Pei Zilie and the others: "We are upright and honest Dachen soldiers, how can this public security city not be entered, unless he Fan Chang wants to rebel!" ”
