In November of the second year of the early Han Dynasty (191 AD), a flood broke out in the western part of the Han Dynasty, and millions of people were displaced. Under the pressure of hunger and cold, countless people could not make it to their destination, starved to death and froze to death on the way. Every time everyone fell, the people around them were not sad or happy about it, but rushed up with expressionless faces, and took off all the things that could be moved on the four of them and put them on themselves, and finally only a naked corpse remained, and no one cared about it. In the land of Sanfu, under the rule of Dong Zhuo, more than 300,000 victims could not be rescued, and they gathered to rebel, causing a sensation in Chang'an. And Dong Zhuo ate meat in the Crane Dock, the life of the meat forest wine pool, and the food in the Bird Dock can be used by millions of people for ten years, but there are 300,000 people in Sanfu who have to take risks.

Danshui, Danshui in the west of Nanyang County, the people of more than a dozen counties in the Danshui basin are struggling to make a living, and hundreds of thousands of people are eager to help, including the three counties of Shangyong in Hanzhong. At this time, Chen Lin braved the rain to come to Shangyong County, what he saw was shocking, originally outside the western suburbs of the city saw a lot of displaced people were ordered by the county to be resettled in the county's villages, Chen Lin thought that the victims had received assistance, at least their lives were safe. Chen Lin, who didn't want to be in Shangyong City, saw the people who were not clothed tonight with blank eyes and a sluggish face, and the baby in the woman's arms was crying because he couldn't get food. Imagine what is more painful for parents in this world than not being able to feed their children and making them cry in pain, there are crying people everywhere, and there are family members lying on the ground holding their eyes white and motionless crying and crying loudly.

Chen Lin was touched, not only sad or angry, but also self-blame. Chen Lin separated the crowd and rushed into Shangyong County, shouting at the defenders who closed the city gate: "Call the county order to come out to see so-and-so, where is Sir Wu, where is Sir Wu?" After a while, Wu Kuang Chong opened the city gate and met Chen Lin, no one would have thought that Chen Lin would brave the heavy rain to come to Shangyong at this time. Wu Kuangnai was an army general who was ordered to garrison, and was not subject to the control of local officials, nor was he ordered by local officials.

"What about the county order, why didn't the county order come to see so-and-so, why didn't so many people from outside the city let them into the city?" At this time, a small civil official rushed to Chong, who was just a small official in the county, and hurriedly said to Chen Lin: "Lord Yu, the county magistrate and all the officials have gone out of the city to settle the people, and those who went to Xicheng County have not returned overnight, and there are only a few people in the county who are on the council, and even a thousand county soldiers have been taken away by the county order to rescue the people in the water." ”

When Chen Lin heard this, his anger decreased slightly, Wu Kuang could not move without Chen Lin's order, unless there was a war, so at this time, Wu Kuang's 2,000 army was in Shangyong. Chen Lin asked again: "Why did these thousands of people outside the city not let them enter the city?" The little official hurriedly said: "The homeless people always take the opportunity to make trouble, a few days ago in Xicheng County caused a disturbance and killed nearly 100 people, the residents of this city are panicked, so the county order ordered that the people outside are not allowed to enter the city, but just settle them one by one to the nearby villages, so as not to cause chaos." ”

When Jia Xu heard this, he stepped forward and said: "Lord, this must be a trick, I don't think the people of this county will make trouble, only if you can barely fill your stomach, you won't make trouble." ”

"How is the surplus grain in the county?"

"My lord, the grain harvested this autumn has not come and is being delivered to Nanzheng, so there is still surplus grain in the county now."

"Immediately open the warehouse and release the grain. Sir Thou hast led a large army to maintain law and order, but there were those who took the opportunity to make a commotion, and they were determined to cut down and boil the grain into rice porridge and distribute it to the people. Immediately clear out the east gate of the county seat, and let a group of people enter the city, but do not walk around. Sir led a thousand soldiers and horses to deal with this matter in Shangyong, and took another 1,000 troops with a certain army to Xicheng. ”

With Chen Lin's order, the officials and Wu Kuang acted according to the order, and after a short time, the people outside the city gate were able to enter the city. At this time, Chen Lin was standing at the head of the city and watching the people enter the city, his heart was like a knife, the people listened to Wu Kuang's words, looked at the wall, and saw a figure standing still in the wind and rain, and the people cried and shouted and knelt down to worship Taishou.

Two hours later, Chen Lin led an army of 1,000 to the east, all the way found that there were displaced people from the west, Chen Lin ordered people to go one by one to respond, Chen Lin specially ordered the army to escort dozens of trucks of dry food when he went out of the city, covered with oilcloth, and slowly followed. At this time, every time he met a displaced person, Chen Lin distributed a piece of dry food and ordered the displaced person to go to Shangyong County. Not long after, I saw a puddle, and in the middle of a place that had become an isolated island, several people were still alive, and at this time, dozens of people were busy building rafts and shouting at the people on the isolated island. Chen Lin rushed over on horseback, and this army also attracted the attention of the crowd. Hurriedly rushed out of a person, only to see that this person was thin to the bones, his eyes were dark, and he was deeply sunken, as if he hadn't slept for a year. Chen Lin looked at the person who was running slowly, as if he knew, but he couldn't remember. I saw that this person arrived in front of Chen Lin, first stunned, then shocked, and then happy, and knelt on the ground crying with tears in his eyes: "My lord, the petty official is incompetent." ”

Claiming to be a lower official, Chen Lin was shocked, ah, this is not the Shangyong county order, the fat man, why is this look at this time, remembering that the little official in Shangyong said that the county order from the day the heavy rain began to fall to the present, there is not a day that is not busy, after the flood hit, the county order is not even home, for several days and nights do not return to the county seat, only in the countryside to roll up their sleeves to help the people escape, from time to time to send people to contact the county, afraid that there is a big event in the county, that's all.

Chen Lin's anger and sorrow disappeared suddenly, and he was full of emotion and admiration for this county magistrate. Chen Lin jumped off the horse, picked up the county commander who was crying silently, and said, "Okay, okay, you did your best." The prefectural order is even more ashamed. Chen Lin and the county magistrate were relieved and said: "A certain has opened the tax and grain in Shangyong County, and at this time it is being presided over by General Wu, and the displaced people are also released into the city, with General Wu's 1,000 troops watching, there will be no big problem." This is the fault of this official, if he had ordered the opening of the position earlier, and let General Wu help earlier, the county order would not have been like this, and the official would have been guilty. The county order was moved to tears, this is how good it is. The county order is a small local scholar, born with a fat head and brain, but he is honest and loves the people, after Chen Lin took control of Hanzhong, he selected some of these people, and the county order is one of them.

Chen Lin: "The county order is in Shangyong, I don't know what the disaster situation is now?" The county order: "Now Danshui is absolutely mentioned, my three counties are still light, such as Nanyang's Danshui County, Nanxiang, Champion, and Yu County, the four counties are even more serious, and the counties east of the Danshui River don't know, but it shouldn't be much better." Now, because the Xicheng County Order and the Fangling County Order mobilized the people and the county soldiers to dig the canal and divert the water to the Han River, even my Shangyong 1,000 county soldiers have gone. Now that the water level in Xicheng has dropped, Xicheng can barely enter the city, but the people are not good to stay there and are prone to plague, so Shangyong County undertakes most of the resettlement of the victims. ”

It turns out that this is the case, Chen Lin thought to himself that Shangyong was responsible for rescuing the victims, no wonder Shangyong had so many displaced people, and the victims who were so emotional were all in Shangyong. Xicheng and Fangling counties are responsible for saving water, if the flood continues to flood, there will be no way to grow food in the coming year, then the loss will be great, it seems that the county orders of the three counties are well coordinated, Chen Lin is relieved in his heart. Seeing that the county order seemed to have something to say, but he was embarrassed to speak, Chen Lin said: "Just say anything, why bother to spit out." ”

The county commander gritted his teeth and knelt down to Chen Lin: "My lord, now tens of thousands of displaced people have gathered at the border of Nanyang County, the champion county bordering our county, I hope your lord will take it in." ”

Chen Lin was shocked, Nanyang homeless? Needless to say, it must be because he didn't get Chen Lin's order, and the county order of Xicheng definitely didn't dare to let so many displaced people pour into Hanzhong County. The county order must be with benevolence and righteousness, wanting to save these helpless people. However, the exiles are from Nanyang, and if Chen Lin takes these people to Hanzhong without asking the reason, Yuan Shu will use this as an excuse to attack Hanzhong in the future, and it is not good to say that it will cause a big war. Yuan Shu is like this, he is not as active as Chen Lin in the rescue of these victims, he would rather they starve to death and freeze to death, but if Chen Lin takes it, even if he saves these people, at this time Yuan Shu is only afraid that he will be worried about this matter again. Therefore, as soon as the county order said this, Chen Lin had to think about it seriously, and this matter was very important.

"This is a big deal, let's discuss it for the time being, now the official's 1,000 army is here, and the county commander is a local person, and he is also familiar with the disaster, so the adult will temporarily command these soldiers and horses to help the people." The command of the 1,000-strong army was instantly transferred to the county commander, and the county commander couldn't believe it, Chen Lin had great trust in him. The county commander wiped his nose, bowed heavily to Chen Lin, and said loudly: "I will live up to the trust of adults." He turned around and arranged affairs for the army, and in a moment he saw that the army of a thousand people was instantly torn apart, and a pair of hundreds of people and dozens of people scattered in all directions.

Chen Lin turned back to Zhang Song and Jia Xu and said, "The county commander is diligent and loves the people, this person can be reused." "Fa Zheng didn't have to come with me this time. Zhang Song admired Chen Lin's actions all the way, and he already recognized a lot with the lord of this friend (Wu Yi) in his heart, although Zhang Song is now a staff member by Chen Lin's side in Hanzhong, but Zhang Song did not recognize it after all, this catastrophe made Zhang Song completely convinced of Chen Lin, and decided to follow this person for life. Zhang Song began to take the initiative to work for Chen Lin, and said: "The lord, the border displaced people mentioned by the county order, Song thinks that it is okay, the lord can incorporate this into Hanzhong and settle down, these people will be rescued by the lord in times of crisis, and they will feel the grace of the lord, and in the future, the lord will divide the land, these people will not give up the lord and go, and the lord will not get tens of thousands of people." ”

Jia Xu and Chen Lin didn't care about the difference in Zhang Song's tone and title, and they didn't realize the change in Zhang Song's psychology towards Chen Lin, and heard Zhang Song say this at this time. It all turned to the border victims, and the three of them began to discuss it. Suddenly, I saw the county commander rushing over, as if something big had happened. Chen Lin hurriedly said, "What's the matter? ”

"The victims of the Nanyang disaster rebelled, 100,000 people."
