Under the lure of such generous profits, some of the poor people from tenant families were tempted, before the war, they had no real estate, and they were tenants for the fame of the rich to farm, and they only had to eat and live for a year, and now the Bei'an Army is willing to expand and reform the military camp, once they get the land, let alone three years, at most a year and a half can settle down, and the days at that time can be stronger than now, and the Bei'an Army acts benevolently and righteously, opening warehouses and releasing grain, which can make the poor people who are lonely and unheard of treat each other sincerely, so this order is posted half a day, There are thousands of people who are willing to move north to set up households, which makes Lin Xiu happy.

Later, Lin Xiu went to the side courtyard of the palace to visit the tortured Tang Chuanwen, in front of the bed, Tang Chuanwen had woken up, Lin Xiu's words were like ears, Tang Chuanwen said that his punishment was worth it, and at the end Tang Chuanwen asked casually: "General, that Lu Yan and his thousands of captives... What are you going to do? ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiu hesitated slightly: "Chuanwen, about this matter, Han Mo suggested that I kill him, and Zhuang Fei suggested that I let it go... For a while, I couldn't make up my mind, kill... It's the butcher's doing, put... There is a suspicion of raising tigers! ”

"General, there is a compromise..."

Tang Chuanwen coughed lightly a few times and said: "Lu Yan must not be killed, he is the current military banner of the Jianghuai Lu clan, if you kill him, you will offend the Lu clan, and offending the Lu clan will implicate some Jianghuai families, which is a far-reaching disaster... Put, you can't put them all, those Yan soldiers pick up swords and shields are soldiers, and it is indispensable to fight our army in the future, so your subordinates suggest that you only put a few prisoners, and the rest should be a transaction, so that King Yan can exchange silver and grain and grass... At least we can use the proceeds to expand our army! ”

"This..."

Lin Xiu's eyes lit up, but after thinking about it, he smiled bitterly: "Chuanwen, if I do this, is it too utilitarian?" ”

"Definitely!" Tang Chuanwen shook his head: "Does the world have that one who does not seek profit?" If the general is jealous of Yan Jun's rumors about this matter, the general can let Qiao Mao and Ding Liao leave alone, and before putting them off, they will take off their clothes and armor, and they will be dried cakes, as long as they don't starve to death, then King Yan will understand what the general means... Let's release people and provide them with food, it is a good intention, but the military can not be combined, and the rest of the people, especially Lu Yan, will never be released in vain, then King Yan will make his own choice, or use grain, grass or silver to redeem... Either abandon it, if it is the latter, we can surrender, even if we don't recruit the army, after the Yan soldiers know the situation, they will not return to the army... In turn, it weakened the cohesion of the Yan soldiers..."

"Chuanwen, you are really my confidant!"

Tang Chuanwen said that Lin Xiu was happy, and at this time, Fang Hua came to report that the Imperial Gate Banner of Zhongdu had arrived.

"General, it must be a reward, you go quickly..."

In front of the court of Yecheng County Government, Lin Xiu knelt down to receive the emperor's edict, and when the gift of General Zhongwu entered Lin Xiu's ears, Zhuang Fei, Zhao Yuan and others were suddenly happy.

Prior to this, Lin Xiu's Bei'an general was a false name, but after this order, Lin Xiu was the real general in the military temple, according to the law and military regulations, Lin Xiu could be crowned a general below the sixth grade without a complaint, so that Zhao Yuan and others would also be high and famous.

After the Huangmen Banner ordered the soldiers to be rewarded, he said with a smile: "Bei'an General, from this moment on, you are a veritable general of Northern Xinjiang, and now that the Yan thief is heading westward, if you seize the opportunity, it is not impossible to be crowned a marquis!" ”

"Borrow the auspicious words of the adults!" Lin Xiu was respectful and respectful: "My lord's prison is here, I implore that I will take care of my lord's wind and wash the dust... On the way home! ”

"Then so-and-so would be disrespectful!"

When Su Wen left with the imperial flag, Lin Xiu and everyone returned to the palace, looking at the golden tin seal book, Lin Xiu's heart was uncertain, and after a while, he relieved himself and said: "Life and death struggle has several ups and downs, just to get this name Quan'er..."

In a word, everyone didn't know, or Zhuang Fei was scheming and smart: "General, behind the fame and power is really the road to great ambitions... From now on, you will be able to do what you want in the name of a loyal general, and this is the real Bei'an Jiang'an Beijiang..."

Wei County, Liu Pan picked up 50,000 stone grain and grass here, after a whole day's rest, he accelerated the speed of rushing to Yecheng, and traveled to Yanzipo in the south of the county, and the scout came to report: "Du team, some loose riders were found in the north, and they were suspicious of thieves..."

When Liu Pan heard this, his eyebrows furrowed: "Explore again!" ”

On the swallow slope, a group of robbers stand here, since the Northern Barbarian War, the northern Xinjiang life recovery has been frustrated one after another, first the official family implemented the barley tax system to no avail, and then regenerated the war disaster in the river, now the Yan army is advancing westward, it can really be said that the people are not living, but all the men who have some strength have copied the firewood knife, the grass is the coward, this time the biggest thief gang in the swallow slope received the news of the grain truck aisle, because they can't resist the temptation of eating, the swallow slope two masters of the big gold tooth brought people to explore the wind.

"Second master, the grain cart has the flag of the Bei'an Army on it... Are we exempting this business..."

The minions are afraid of the prestige of the Bei'an Army, and they are cowardly, but the big golden tooth is just a reckless man, living a chic and drunk life today, and he doesn't care about the consequences, and now there are more than 1,000 thieves in Yanzipo, and even the officials in Licheng are too lazy to bother to exterminate them, so the big golden tooth thief's heart swells, and he completely forgets the consequences of causing trouble in the army.

"The Bei'an Army is a bird... The emperor of Zhongdu only cares about his own enjoyment, let us suffer in this barren land, instead of starving to death, it is better to live happily for a few days, pass the order, keep an eye on this grain team, and once he finds an opportunity, he will rob Lao Tzu of his mother..."

The big golden tooth was arrogant and fearless, which caused the thieves under his command to rise up and surge, and then the big golden tooth led people to follow on all sides.

In front of the grain team, Liu Pan was uneasy, this time he came to take care of the food, only brought a team of men and horses, it is said that the combat power of the soldiers under his command is twice as strong as the number of thieves, but Liu Pan, as a man in the northern Xinjiang, knows very well what those hungry thieves are like?

When the scout replied for the second time that the thieves were not dispersed but increased, Liu Pan had a dark cloud floating in his heart, and he had already realized that this group of thieves really had the idea of putting food and grass on the ground.

"Ge Laozi's mixed breed, I really want to touch the grain and grass of the Bei'an Army..."

Liu Pan gritted his teeth: "Send orders to all teams of soldiers, strictly guard against movement in all directions, but if there is a living creature approaching, there will be no mercy!" ”

When a group of thieves peeped into the Bei'an army grain truck and delayed Liu Pan's marching speed, in the Yanzipo thief village, the old one-armed man of the big boss was counting the grain and grass stored in the village, as more and more poor men took refuge, the surplus grain in the village was less than a few days to eat, the old one-armed was upset, and the minions came to report, saying that the big golden tooth was eyeing a grain team, and the old one-armed man was overjoyed: "What kind of food team is it?" ”

"Uncle, it's really the military food team of the Bei'an Army... The little one was ordered by the second master to come to tell him, and he couldn't be wrong. ”
