Chapter 54: Rely on not leaving

The battle of Fucheng basically ended with Ma Xiang's escape, and Chen Lin never imagined that the guards at the south gate of Fucheng would surrender in their entirety, a full 1,500 people. Coupled with the more than 1,000 captives in the city, there were 3,000 captives in Fucheng, and Chen Lin's entire army was only less than 3,000 at this time. Chen Lin no longer dared to let Zhou Cang lead the guards into battle, and less than two hundred of the five hundred people returned, which made Chen Lin feel very remorseful, but Jia Xu was very happy at this time, and he also seemed quite positive, busy with things in the city.

Jia Long left, Ma Xiang fled and didn't know where to flee, Jia Long immediately dared to return to Mianzhu, and then returned to Shu County, and Li Quan and others formed an army of more than 1,000 people, and killed Ma Xiang, Zhao Yi's whereabouts are unknown, which is a later story. Chen Lin was trying his best to deal with the big and small things in Fucheng at this time, the population of Fucheng was not much, after such a toss, the entire Fucheng people were less than 1,000 in the city, most of the scholars were scared away by the scared, killed and killed, Fucheng resolutely became a military camp, a place dominated by the army. Jia Xu suddenly rushed over and said to Chen Lin: "Lord, it is best to quickly go to the imperial court, explain the merits of this battle, and recommend a Fucheng county order to the imperial court." "The death of the Fucheng County Commander has saved Jia Xu a lot of things.

Chen Lin: "I'm afraid that the court won't allow it, and the scholars in Shu won't allow it." Jia Xu smiled weirdly: "Lord, the lord is not recommending someone else, but the lord is the same family, Zitong Du Wei Du Guofu." After speaking, he looked at Chen Lin meaningfully. Because Jia Xu knew that after this battle, whether it was Du Wei or Zitong and the others, they were all grateful to Chen Lin, because many people had seen the tragedy of Fucheng, if it wasn't for Chen Lin's capture, I was afraid that Zitong would not have been able to avoid this encounter. In addition, Du Wei is Chen Lin's fellow disciple, but I am afraid that Fucheng is in the hands of Du Wei as if it is in the hands of Chen Lin, at least it is better than in the hands of someone who does not know him.

Chen Lin's army did not commit any crimes in Fucheng and Minqiu, in addition to the necessary * practice, Chen Lin also ordered Gao Shun to help the people of Fucheng to build new houses, for the capture of 3,000 people, this time Chen Lin made a difficulty. In the Fucheng County Mansion, in a room, Chen Lin, Jia Xu, and strangely there is a man with small eyes, Jia Xu: "Lord, this battle is indispensable, but there is another person who is a great hero, and that is this little eye." "This man doesn't even have a proper name, just called Little Eyes. The little eyes were all over the body at this time, and knelt down in front of Chen Lin: "Lord, if the little eyes don't have to meet the lord, I'm afraid that they have been dead for a long time at this time, and the little eyes will never give up." ”

On the second day, the three thousand Fucheng prisoners began to be processed, many of the captives were released, Chen Lin also united with the local scholars, selected hundreds of them as county soldiers, and the leader who surrendered at the south gate could no longer find a trace, among the hundreds of captives who rushed into the county soldiers, there was a thin little eye, many captives knew that this was Ma Xiang's most trusted person, and they didn't expect him to be captured. Chen Lin looked at the released captives, and said with a heartache: "It's a pity, if this is a certain decision, these people will be allowed to cultivate the Shu Dao." "Chen Lin let the captives replace their crimes with labor, and now because of the smoothness of the Zhengxia Road in the south of Shangyong, it has brought countless benefits to Hanzhong every year. Jia Xu said with a smile: "Lord, there will be a day, there will always be a day this will be realized, the renovation of Shu Road is a matter of benefiting the country and the people, if Shu Road is smooth, presumably the imperial court's control over Shuzhong will be tighter, and Shuzhong is really a state of my Han Dynasty." ”

Chen Lin: "Wenhe, what is our army going to do now, should we continue to pursue Ma Xiang south, or turn back to Hanzhong, or what?" Jia Xu: "Don't advance, don't retreat." Chen Lin sighed, and Jia Xu continued: "Now Jia Qiande is completely angry, presumably he will definitely defeat Ma Xiang in Shuzhong, so the so-called Ma Tianzi is just a joke; Second, the lord stationed in Fucheng on the grounds that his vitality was seriously injured and he was guarding Guanghan County to win the hearts of the people; Third, the lord, the court has followed Liu Taichang's suggestion to set up a state pastor, this Yizhou pastor is the one, how can the lord not leave some stirring for him. Chen Lin had long been ready for the appearance of the state pastor, but at this time, he was still a little uncomfortable when he heard Jia Xu say that the imperial court had been officially appointed. Chen Lin knew that this Liu Yan came to Yizhou wholeheartedly, and he definitely didn't have a good heart, Yizhou was remote, and he was afraid that Liu Yan would be the king of kings. It is precisely because of this that Jia Xu has been instigating Chen Lin's actions against Fucheng Zitong and others, Chen Lin knew Jia Xu's intentions, but Chen Lin acquiesced.

Du Wei's visit was unexpected by Chen Lin, not that Du Wei went to Fucheng, but that Du Wei and Chen Lin met secretly, which made Chen Lin puzzled. Chen Lin: "Guofu, thank you for the grain and grass sent during the day, otherwise it would be really not easy to transport it from Hanzhong." Du Wei: "How dare you take the merit, Bo Zhi is not far away from Shuzhong to quell the chaos, if it is not Bo Zhi, this Zitong and Fucheng do not know how different from Mianzhu." "Mianzhu is now white, every household is crying, and Ma Xiang is really willing to kill.

After eating, the two brothers drank wine for a while, Du Wei put down the wine bottle and looked at Chen Lin fixedly, Chen Lin was panicked: "Guofu, what do you mean?" Du Wei asked rhetorically: "What does Bozhi mean?" Chen Lin didn't understand it anymore, and he was a little flustered, but he was afraid that Du Wei would also see what Chen Lin was doing in Fucheng, but Chen Lin pretended not to understand.

Du Wei: "Bo Zhi, the teacher can't see it, just because the teacher is dedicated to learning, but a certain knows that Bo Zhi's thousands of troops stayed in Fucheng, neither retreating to Hanzhong, nor pursuing Ma Zheng thieves, but helping the people every day either to build a house or repair a house, Bo Zhi, a certain and Bo Zhi intersected at first sight, and they are the same door, Bo Zhi can dare to say with a certain Ming? Du Wei's bright eyes made Chen Lin have nowhere to hide. Chen Lin thought to himself that Du Wei was worthy of being Ren An's favorite disciple, and he was really extraordinary. But Chen Lin was entangled in whether he should tell Du Wei his plans and express his dissatisfaction with Liu Yan, after all, Du Wei is also a scholar in Shu, in case Du Wei chooses to choose the same as Jia Long and others, then Chen Lin will not lose all the games. But Chen Lin thought about it, if Du Wei was not on his side, then even if Du Wei was elected as the county magistrate of Fucheng, then Fucheng had nothing to do with Chen Lin, Chen Lin thought about it and decided to confess part of it to Du Wei.

Chen Lin: "Guofu is like this, how dare you hide it again." So Chen Lin told Du Wei about Liu Hua's affairs, and even said that there was no doubt that these were arranged by Liu Yan. Du Wei stood up from the seat in a panic, which was too appalling, and exclaimed, "Impossible, Bozhi." Chen Lin didn't move, looking at Du Wei with regret, and didn't explain, because Chen Lin knew that Du Wei could know everything as long as he scrutinized it a little, but Du Wei didn't want to believe it. Sure enough, after a while, Du Wei saw Chen Lin's appearance, sighed, sat down again, and spoke after a while: "I think of the fact that Jia Cheng came to persuade a certain person to get rid of Lord Thorn Shi, but I am afraid that this Jia Cheng also has an unshirkable responsibility for the disaster of this horse thief, alas, the teacher is right, the Shu sergeant clan is always too conceited." ”

Chen Lin knew that Du Wei was an understanding person and knew the key, Chen Lin very much hoped that Du Wei could completely stand on his side, so he said: "Guofu, I hope to get the support of Guofu, and I hope that Guofu will be supported." Du Wei stood up again, walked to the window, and looked at the shadows of the trees outside, Chen Lin knew that at this time, Du Wei's heart would never be as calm as it appeared, and he would not disturb Du Wei's deep thought. There was a full time for a meal, Du Wei turned around and said to Chen Lin: "This time I came to see Bozhi, the teacher didn't know. Chen Lin was shocked, Ren An is not like Du Wei, if Ren An guessed Chen Lin's thoughts and did not support Chen Lin, Chen Lin could probably only obediently return to Hanzhong, because Ren An's strength was too great.

Du Wei saw Chen Lin change color, and laughed in his heart, this person who is not afraid of heaven and earth is afraid of the teacher, and then said: "I believe that the teacher also hopes that I can be a colleague of the two abilities, and Bozhi will not be too careful, even if the teacher does not like Bozhi's approach, it will not be bad, at most it will be a scolding of Bozhi." I don't want to care about the Shi clan, and I don't want to think about the clan, but the happiness of the people in Bozhi Han is what I want. As soon as Du Wei finished speaking, Chen Lin was overjoyed, not only because of Ren An, but also because Du Wei told Chen Lin vaguely that if he had to choose, Du Wei would definitely choose Chen Lin's side, how could he not make Chen Lin happy.

With Du Wei's secret permission, Chen Lin no longer had to worry about it, and thousands of troops stayed in Fucheng, and the ordinary people of Fucheng were quite supportive of the military discipline of Chen Lin's army, and Chen Lin's reputation rose day by day in Fucheng and Zitong counties. And the news of Ma Xiang and others did not come from the south, but what caught Chen Lin's attention the most was the arrival of Liu Yan, and Wuying could always be much faster than ordinary messengers. Therefore, when Liu Yan did not arrive in Hanzhong, Chen Lin knew the time when Liu Yan arrived in Hanzhong and the time when he arrived in Shuzhong. More than a month has passed, Jia Long has really been prosperous, Ma Xiang was strangled by him, and the remnants of the Yellow Turban have almost subsided. But when Jia Long appeared in front of Chen Lin again, Chen Lin obviously didn't feel Jia Long's happiness, after all, Jia Long had an unshirkable responsibility for Ma Xiang's affairs. It's just that Jia Long doesn't know that Chen Lin knows everything about this, and the reason why Jia Long will appear here is because Jia Long is going to welcome an important person: Yizhou Mu, Liu Yan.

In this disaster, I am afraid that the happiest person is Liu Yan, everything goes according to his design, the only unsatisfactory thing is the strength of the Hanzhong army, which makes Liu Yan a little uncomfortable. Chen Lin couldn't have imagined that Liu Yan would be so gentle, and it was this person who set up a big plan, Chen Lin believed that although Liu Yan's plan was successful, but the entire Han dynasty would decline, seeing that most of the Shu sergeant clan magnates present were deceived by Liu Yan, Chen Lin was helpless.

What Chen Lin didn't expect was that as soon as Liu Yan met, he announced the appointment of Yizhou Mu and gave Chen Lin an order: "Chen Taishou is a great hero of my Yizhou, and the court will be set to ask for merit for Taishou in the coming day. ”

Liu Yan's announcement was a bit jealous, but it was extremely irrational, and many of the Shu sergeants present had an unnatural expression. Jia Xu secretly said to Chen Lin: "Lord, the matter is over here and now, it's better to go back." The reason why Jia Xu is so happy is completely due to Liu Yan's behavior of digging his own grave, which everyone can see what kind of person Liu Yan is, can Jia Xu not be happy. As a result, Chen Linlai's days in Fucheng were announced.
