Chapter 90 Runan County
Chen Sheng was overjoyed when he heard this, this time he went on an expedition, and finally surrendered Liu Pi, as soon as Liu Pi surrendered, he immediately harvested more than ten cities, and opened up the road to Yuan Shu, which was really a big victory.
With great joy in his heart, Chen Sheng was also a lot more kind to Liu Bi, only to see Chen Sheng turn over and dismount, personally help Liu Bi, and said: "General, get up quickly." ”
After helping Liu Pi up, Chen Sheng smiled again: "The general is convinced, then from now on, he will be the general under his brother." In this way, there is no difference between you and me, and there is no need to be so polite. ”
"Zhang Xiu?" Chen Sheng said very politely, but when Liu Bi heard the name Zhang Xiu, he pouted with disdain.
If Liu Pi is also a straightforward man, he is not as good as Chen Sheng in terms of courage or leading troops, and he is naturally convinced by Chen Sheng.
But I don't feel that way about Zhang Xiu.
However, Liu Bi is still a bit of a city government, and he knows that even if he looks at Chen Sheng's face, he can't show his disdain for Zhang Xiu, so he hides it in his heart.
"No." Thinking in his heart, Liu Pi promised.
"Huh." Chen Sheng saw that Liu Pi was so well-behaved, and he was immediately even happier. After smiling, Chen Shengcai said to Liu Bi and Gong Du: "Two generals, go down first to appease the surrendered troops." When everything is in order, I should personally arrange a banquet for the two generals. ”
"No."
Even if you surrender, it is not a problem to appease the surrendered troops. Liu Bi and Gong Du agreed and went down to appease the surrendered troops.
And with Liu Pi, the appeasement of Gong Du and the others, and the mood of surrendering the troops have also stabilized a lot. In addition, this time the two only sent 15,000 troops, and 5,000 soldiers remained behind.
Therefore, Chen Sheng sent two people to recruit.
After that, everything is in order.
Chen Sheng began to hold a banquet for Liu Pi and Gong Du, and the people at the banquet celebrated, and they didn't mention drinking a lot.
Early the next morning, the army pulled out of camp and went to Runan.
Along the way, Liu Pi and Gong Du began to introduce Chen Sheng's situation in Runan.
Runan, as Chen Sheng knows. There are more than 30 cities, Yuan Shao's hometown. Before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Runan County was very prosperous, with a population of five or six hundred thousand, which was quite terrifying.
After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the population withered. In addition, Runan County was divided into three by Liu Pi, Gong Du's forces, Cao Ying's Li Tong's forces, and Yuan Shao's supporters.
The war continued, so the population was reduced to only two or three hundred thousand.
And Liu Pi and Gong Du have thirteen cities under the rule of the two, and only the population is relatively small, only **10,000.
Chen Sheng could only smile bitterly when he heard this, with a population of only **10,000, he dared to pull up an army of 20,000 or 30,000, Liu Pi and Gong Du were desperate to the point of outrageousness, and it was a miracle that they could survive until now.
However, Chen Sheng didn't say this, he planned to go to Runan to see the situation and then standardize these two guys.
For example, recuperation, such as the elite soldiers, such as the reinforcement of the city, and so on.
These dozen or so cities in Runan, since they have been obtained. Then Chen Sheng didn't want to lose.
The army walked for three days before reaching Runan. After walking for another half a day, I arrived at the lair where Liu Bi and Gong Du were located, and Shenyang City was among the thirteen cities.
After arriving at Shenyang City, Chen Sheng ordered the army to be outside, and he only took Zhou Cang, Wei Yan, and five hundred elite soldiers to the city gate.
"These two people have no routines in leading the troops, and they are also very powerful. But the city is well built. Outside the city gate, Chen Sheng looked at the city of Shenyang and felt very satisfied.
I saw that the city was very majestic, and it was very new, and it was obviously repaired from time to time.
With such a city, it is twice the result with half the effort to defend the town, and Chen Sheng is naturally satisfied.
After looking at the city for a while, Chen Sheng greeted him and entered the city with Wei Yan, Zhou Cang, Liu Pi, Gong Du and others. However, after entering the city, Chen Sheng's good mood was gone.
I saw that on both sides of the road, there were mostly people. A lot, a lot. However, most of them have sallow faces and are described as withered. Some of the children, even with large heads on their heads, but with bodies like skeletons, are clearly malnourished to the limit.
This must be the result of Liu Pi and Gong Du.
Chen Sheng is not sad and merciful, in the troubled times, there are too many such things, and he can't sympathize.
But there is one thing that Chen Sheng knows. If the people are absent, they will not be able to hold the city, and the power will not last long.
And if you want to make the power of these dozen or so cities in Runan last for a long time, you must change all this.
As you walk, you watch. Chen Sheng finally arrived at the center of the city, Liu Pi's mansion. At this moment, the door of Liu Bi's mansion opened, and many guards and people dressed as domestic slaves came to greet them.
The eyes of these people were very fearful.
Chen Sheng didn't care, so he ordered Zhou Cang and five hundred elite soldiers to take over the defense of the mansion, and entered the mansion with Gong Du, Liu Pi, and Wei Yan.
After entering the mansion, what Chen Sheng saw was a different scene.
I saw that the mansion was renovated and was very rich and exquisite, and I knew that the cost was not small at a glance. Seeing this, Chen Sheng sighed again, the yellow scarf will be.
Rich and oily.
After looking at it for a while, Chen Sheng asked Liu Bi to take him to the hall.
And at this moment, Liu Bi's heart is also worried, since Chen Sheng entered the city, he is in a bad mood, this brow is naturally wrinkled, and Liu Bi can naturally see it.
How not to be upset.
"Could it be that the general is not satisfied with my ability to govern the city?" Liu Bi thought in his heart.
Although he had something in his heart, Liu Pi was quite calm on his face and led Chen Sheng into the hall.
The hall is also in the same style, magnificent and magnificent.
After entering the hall, Chen Sheng sat in the main seat, while Wei Yan, Liu Bi, and Gong Du naturally sat on both sides.
After sitting down, Chen Sheng began to think about how to talk to Liu Pi, the elm head, about governing the city, but he didn't know how to speak for a while, so he fell silent.
And the more Chen Sheng was silent, the more uneasy Liu Bi and Gong Du became.
After a long time, Chen Sheng sorted out his thoughts, looked at Liu Bi and Gong Du, and also saw the apprehension on their looks. was stunned for a moment, then pondered for a moment, and then understood, and couldn't help laughing: "In front of me, the two generals don't have to be so restrained. ”
At this time, Chen Sheng was quite pleasant.
This made Liu Bi and Gong Du breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts. Liu Bi also gradually became bolder, raised his fist and asked: "But our two brothers, we are incompetent in governing the city, so that the general is sad?" ”
Immediately, Liu Bi added another sentence and said, "If this is the case, please ask the general to arrange someone to come over." Preside over the city. ”
Liu Bi thought that Chen Sheng was sad for the city, so he said so. At the same time, there is another point, showing loyalty.
It means that we are willing to accept it, and the lord will install the civil servant to come, and we will only have to fight.
Chen Sheng naturally heard the meaning of the words, but he just smiled and didn't reply.
The so-called employment is not suspicious, and the suspect does not use. He had already subdued Liu Pi and the others at his own expense, so naturally he would not send another civil official over. If it is a civil official, the military general is not compatible.
led to a rebellion, and if Liu Pi and the two were lost, the gains would outweigh the losses.
The most important thing is to change the concept of these two people to govern the city.
