More than 100,000 people in Kunshan went down the mountain to accept Chen Lin's surrender in Michi, and Xu Huang, who Chen Lin was most looking forward to, did not appear again, it is said that he went to Cao*, Chen Lin couldn't help but sigh to the sky. Also down the mountain Yang Feng formed several months of soldiers and horses, there are more than 4,000, Chen Lin thought that he would fight with Dong Zhuo in the future, so he took all the soldiers and horses and built an army, led by Chen Lin himself. In this way, more than 100,000 people were settled near Mianchi in batches, and the sudden increase in the number of people was unexpected. Hurriedly returned to Mianchi and discussed with Jia Xu: "Wenhe, now the people are attached, but this place is not my Hanzhong land after all, how can I do it, so many people, I can't abandon it." ”

Jia Xu: "My lord, for the sake of today's plan, only by capturing a few more counties as soon as possible and increasing the scope of our army's activities, can the lord make the people have a home." Hearing Jia Xu say this, Chen Lin sighed: "Alas, now there are fights everywhere, the people are displaced, no one to work, there is no harvest in autumn, and famine is everywhere, if it is not for the fact that this place is far away from Hanzhong, even if the name is not right, he will personally govern this place, alas, now I only hope that there will be a benevolent and righteous king to stabilize Henan as soon as possible, and hundreds of thousands of people can live and work in peace and contentment." ”

Jia Xu smiled in his heart, Luoyang, which seems to be a beautiful place, is also a very dangerous place, the west may face the attack of Dong Zhuo's army at any time, it is good that Dong Zhuo does not come, if Dong Zhuo is mad, no one can rely on this Luoyang alone to resist it. Who doesn't have his own territory, who wants to stay in Luoyang, this dilapidated place, Luoyang, which had a population of one million a month ago, is now good to find 100,000. Jia Xu kept instigating Chen Lin to attack the Dong army, which was nothing more than that now the Kwantung army was standing still in Luoyang, Jia Xu just wanted the world to see what the Hanzhong army was doing, Jia Xu always felt that only by being different from others could he attract attention, so Jia Xu often persuaded Chen Lin to do something different from others. If others retreat, Hanzhong will enter, and if others enter, Jia Xu will persuade Chen Lin to preserve his strength, and I have to say that Jia Xu's strategy is still very effective. No, the Hanzhong army captured Mianchi alone and continued to attack the Dong army, attracting an unexpected figure from Chen Lin, a character who should not have appeared here, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande.

After Liu Bei escaped from Sun Jian last time he was afraid of death, he originally felt that he had no face to return to the allies, so he and Guan Zhang wanted to go to Beihai, Qingzhou, and defect to Kong Rong. For some reason, I stayed in Chenliu for a long time, and later heard that Cao * was defeated, Sun Jian was defeated, Chen Lin was defeated, and finally the allied army entered Luoyang. Liu Bei suddenly changed his mind, and chased after him, thinking that he could meet Emperor Han and prove his identity as an imperial uncle. Unexpectedly, the tragic scene in Luoyang made Liu Bei's heart surge, and he vowed to swear not to stand with Dong Zhuo, but saw that Yuan Shao and others stopped in Luoyang, Liu Bei's status was low, and he had no chance to speak. At this time, when they heard that Chen Lin marched alone and conquered Michi, Yuan Shao and the others did not react, but Liu Bei felt that his opportunity had come, Liu Bei and Jia Xu thought basically the same, this was a great opportunity to show his face in front of the world, so Liu Bei's five hundred soldiers and horses came.

Chen Lin was surprised by Liu Bei's request to see him, and secretly said that this person was really thick-skinned. Jia Xu saw Chen Lin's hesitation, suddenly thought about it, and said: "Lord, the lord was still worried about the people here before, and hoped that there would be a benevolent and righteous monarch to govern, isn't Liu Xuande exactly this person?" "Liu Bei? Chen Lin wondered, how could this person be regarded as benevolent and righteous, just a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death. Jia Xu laughed and said: "Lord, this time is different from the past, Liu Xuande claims to be a clan relative, at this time, the Kwantung herdsmen are unwilling to compete with Dong Thief, but this person resolutely came, which shows that this person is very good at tricks." Now the lord will not stay in Hongnong for a long time, this person is to see through this point to come, want to come to this person urgently needs a place to settle down, Hongnong is under the Kanto herdsmanship, Dong thief will not go east for a while. The lord, thinking that he could cooperate with Liu Xuande and let Liu Xuande be stationed in Michi, the lord only needs to do his best, and let Liu Xuande do the rest. ”

Chen Lin suddenly understood what Jia Xu meant, to put it bluntly, he asked Liu Bei to provide logistics for Chen Lin, in exchange, Chen Lin handed over the pond to Liu Bei, and after Chen Lin left in the future, wouldn't Liu Bei have a piece of land? Chen Lin pondered for a moment, stood up and said: "Okay, according to Wenhe's words, I will order the generals of all departments to recruit soldiers and horses, with a limit of 1,500, so that with the addition of 4,000 and wolf cavalry from a certain person, our army can get 12,000 troops, Wenhe, grain and grass may be sufficient?" ”

The 4,000 old troops of the Hanzhong Army increased to 12,000, and Chen Lin had to ask this question about grain and grass, Jia Xu calculated and said: "Lord, it's okay, our army can have no worries within a month." "Because of the arrival of more than 100,000 people, the grain and grass in Michi are not so abundant, but the military food will definitely be provided first. After hearing this, Chen Lin said: "Okay, Wenhe, prepare forty-five days of grain and grass for the army, and hand over the rest to Liu Xuande in the future, and order someone to bring Xuande in, and we must meet each other." ”

Jia Xu smiled, forty-five days of grain and grass, it seems that Chen Lin has the heart to stop the civil affairs of the officials here, so let Liu Bei worry about it. So Liu Bei was called in, Chen Lin did not regard himself as a superior, but stood in front of the hall with Jia Xu and waited, only to see that Liu Bei still did not abandon the two of them. "Xuande, don't come unharmed, hahaha." I couldn't hear a trace of dissatisfaction in Chen Lin's tone, and it seemed that there was no unhappiness between him and Liu Bei. Chen Lin's generosity made Guan and Zhang admire them for a while, but Liu Bei also laughed heartily, no different from Chen Lin, this person has a heroic posture.

After sitting down, Liu Bei: "Bozhi, I heard that the Hanzhong army will continue to fight with Dong Thief, and a certain person has come to help, and I hope that Bozhi will not dislike a certain soldier and a small general." Chen Lin laughed and said: "Where is it, they are also subjects of the Han Dynasty, and they should serve the country, Xuande has this heart, who can stop Xuande from serving the country." The two chatted happily, and finally Chen Lin: "Xuande, a certain is now trying his best to fight against Dong, and the people in Michi City were fortunate to have surrendered to the top of the mountain, and there is indeed no kung fu to govern, if Xuande manages it on his behalf, it will also make the people here stable, how?" As soon as Chen Lin said this, even Liu Bei couldn't help but cry out in surprise and stood up: "What, hand over the pond to a certain person?" ”

In an instant, Liu Bei changed color again, embarrassed, and felt out of shape, Chen Lin saw it in his eyes and smiled at Jia Xu, Liu Bei really needed a place to stay. Seeing Liu Bei's face again, he knew that Liu Bei mistakenly thought that he was testing him, and said: "Xuande doesn't have to be like this, he is sincere, but I hope that Xuande can support more in the future on the grain and grass equipment, and ten days later, a certain will attack Caoyang." ”

Leaving the county government, Liu Bei was still in a dream, hundreds of thousands of people are their own, Guan Zhang and the others are obviously excited, although this is also a county seat, but it is much better than Anxi and Pingyuan, this is comparable to a small county. In the next three days, you can see Hanzhong soldiers and horses recruiting young men everywhere, Chen Lin used food as a lure, and instantly attracted countless young men to enlist in the army, and Chen Lin was placed in the generals' headquarters one by one. On the fourth day, he began to hand over the household registration documents of Michi to Liu Bei, and at this time Liu Bei knew that Chen Lin was not lying, and Liu Bei hurriedly said to Guan Yu: "Yun Chang, go back quickly and call Xianhe." "This Xianhe is a friend of Liu Bei in his childhood, and he has always followed Liu Bei, he is a scribe, his name is Jian Yong, and he is also Liu Bei's hometown.

Chen Lin has been handing over Michi to Liu Bei for several days, and he has been training the sergeants of various departments in the past few days, but fortunately, none of Huang Zhong and others are not ruthless, and the recruits recruited are all subdued and obedient, and they will set off tomorrow to attack Cao Yang. Now Cao Yang doesn't know why, since Li Meng's death, Dong Zhuo didn't even mean to increase the army, but just stationed a large army in Hangu Pass, I heard that now Jiaxian and Hangu Pass have at least 30,000 soldiers and horses, and Hu Zhen is the governor. After Chen Lin heard about this a few days ago, he immediately sent someone to Hanzhong, hoping that Ma Jun could come over within two months, Hu Zhen is not easy to deal with.

Chen Lin: "Wenhe, Liu Xuande has some skills." Jia Xu said: "Well, I didn't expect this person to have the courage to kill all the wealthy clans nearby, for the sake of food and grass, this person can be regarded as offending a lot of people, but the pond is small, and I don't know how to arouse the disgust of the world's corporal clan towards Liu Xuande, otherwise he would never dare to act like this." It turned out that Liu Bei discussed with Jian Yongyi and felt that grain and grass were the top priority, and then after thinking that there was no way for two days, Liu Bei actually asked Guan Zhang and the two to lead troops to raid the local rich people's homes, and got a lot of food treasures. As soon as Jia Xu thought of this, he felt that this person would definitely be the enemy of Hanzhong in the future, but Chen Lin praised Liu Bei's approach.

Liu Bei also pulled up a team of more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, training every day, if it weren't for the fact that there were no blacksmiths here, I'm afraid Liu Bei would still want to equip the army. The entire craftsmen of the division were afraid that they were all swept away by Dong Zhuo, and if Chen Lin's newly recruited army had not been armed by Zhao Cen's soldiers and horses by surrendering, Chen Lin would not have the equipment to arm the army. In fact, when Chen Lin thought that Liu Bei had no choice, Liu Bei asked the Kwantung Coalition Army for more than a thousand armor swords and arrows, and no one knew what it was like.

On this day, Chen Lin set up a banquet to invite Liu Bei, and at the banquet, Chen Lin: "Xuande, tomorrow I will go west, I will not stop if I don't kill Dong Thief, come, drink this cup." It's just an ordinary banquet, Chen Lin just wanted to say goodbye to Liu Bei, but he didn't expect Liu Bei's reaction to surprise Chen Lin even more, only to see Liu Bei say: "Bo Zhi is righteous, and the world is guilty, but tomorrow a certain person will go with Bo Zhi to attack Dong Thief, so he has to make a contribution." ”

It turned out that Liu Bei had already planned to let Jian Yong guard in Michi, he must go to Caoyang with Chen Lin, Liu Bei's purpose in coming to Michi is to show his face in front of the world, how can he let go of such an opportunity, at the same time, Liu Bei also hopes to successfully defeat Cao Yang, at least in this way, Chen Lin's army will not come back to Michi, and Michi is really Liu Bei's.

Chen Lin didn't know and didn't want to guess Liu Bei's intentions, but he felt that people were easy to do, and shouted loudly: "Okay, Xuande is really proud, then let Dong Thief see the ability of a certain two." ”
