A few days later, Wang Jun had a small boat as the bottom and a pontoon bridge woven from a raft for the people who followed him to cross the river.

There were rented and self-built cargo ships to transport grain, grass, cattle and horses.

It took two days for everyone to cross the Fen River and go straight to Hexi County without stopping.

Along the way, he encountered some small tribes with bad intentions, and gathered seven or eight tribes to form a coalition army to rob the grain, grass and people. Wang Jun was furious and immediately sent Zhang Fei to slaughter these tribes, leaving no one behind.

Since then, no long-eyed Huns have come to peep, and they walked to Hexi City peacefully.

Hexi City is three zhang high, but there are many dilapidated, there is a moat outside, with Wang Jun entering the city to find, the Han people in the city are mostly poor and poor, and the clothes are not wrapped.

Soon the frame arrived at the Taishou Mansion, Wang Jun got out of the car and looked at the corners of his mouth twitching, only to see that the Taishou Mansion had already been dilapidated, overgrown with weeds, and even the gate did not know who had demolished it, and there were wild cats and wild dogs inside, and there were snakes, insects, rats and ants scurrying in it from time to time.

Outside the gate of the Taishou Mansion stood an old man with sparse gray hair, full of teeth, and a wrinkled face, dressed in official uniform, holding a wooden box, trembling and majestically walked in front of Wang Jun, bowed down and said slowly: "Zhao Yan, the old master of Hexi, meet Lord Taishou." ”

Wang Jun hurriedly helped Zhao Yan up and said, "Master Zhao is too old to be polite, please get up." ”

"Master Xie." Zhao Yan got up and said.

handed over the wooden box in his hand and said, "This is Hexi Taishouyin, please accept it." ”

Wang Jun just took the wooden box, and suddenly remembered the voice of the system in his mind: "Di.... Congratulations to Wang Jun for harvesting the first piece of land, a reward package, whether to receive it. ”

Wang Jun pressed the thought of receiving the gift package immediately, and said secretly: "Don't receive it for the time being." ”

Immediately shifted his attention to Zhao Yan, pointed to the Taishou Mansion in front of him, and asked, "Why is Master Zhao's Taishou Mansion so broken?" ”

Zhao Yan's face was embarrassed for a while, and he didn't hide it, and said: "The previous Taishou was rampant in Hexi, and finally angered the Huns, so he was robbed and killed by the Huns at night. ”

"The property in the house was also looted by those Huns, and the previous Taishou spent money to transfer himself away when he heard about these things, and there was no other Taishou in the past 30 years, so this Taishou Mansion was completely deserted."

looked at Wang Jun, who looked like a young master of a family, and said: "For so many years, someone has been on duty here, and finally waited for an adult." ”

Wang Jun couldn't help but regret a little when he heard this, he knew that the Hexi Taishou Mansion was so miserable, it was better to choose to become the Yanmen Taishou, and he was not afraid of the Xianbei clan, but now it is too late to regret it.

Zhao Yan looked at the uncertain expression on Wang Jun's face, took out another paperwork, and said, "Lord Taishou, my subordinates are old, so I hereby ask for my resignation." ”

Wang Jun took the resignation letter, and did not look at the contents of it, but said: "It stands to reason that the official should agree to your resignation, but the official has just taken office and does not know much about the situation in Hexi, so I also asked the chief secretary Zhao to hold on for another two days, and when I completely understand the situation in Hexi, I will let the chief secretary Zhao go home to recuperate." ”

Turning his head at Guan Yu, he said, "Yun Chang, I now make you the Sima of the I Army, and order you to take your troops to find a place to camp for the army." ”

"No." Guan Yu turned over and got on his horse, turned the horse's head with the guards, and led the troops to find a station.

He turned at Zhang Fei again and said, "Yide, I ordered you to take over the defense of Hexi City and repair the city wall." ”

Although Zhang Fei likes to fight on the battlefield, he also executes Wang Jun's orders most thoroughly, and immediately clenches his fists and says, "No." ”

Then he said to Xi Zhicai: "Zhicai, you arrange the affairs of the people and see if there are any vacant rooms in the city?" You can let the people move in first, and then use tents to build some extra days and build houses immediately. ”

"No."

Finally, he said to Zhao Feng: "Zhao Feng, go and pack up a few things in the Taishou Mansion, take a short rest here tonight, and rebuild the Taishou Mansion another day." ”

"No, sir." Zhao Feng arched his hand.

Turning to the guards and servants, he said, "Come and clean up the beasts from outside the Taishou Mansion, and the servants will come with me to tidy up the room." ”

The guards and servants replied at the same time, "Yes, my lord." ”

......

At nightfall, a few rooms were cleaned up in the Taishou Mansion that could be used to live, and although the house was still not in shape, it was barely sheltered from the wind and rain.

Butter candles were lit in the house, and the faint light illuminated the hall, and a bonfire slowly roasted the lambs, and the golden lambs on the grill were dripping with mutton fat, and the fragrance gradually spread.

The faces of several people in the firelight looked a little bright, Wang Jun tore off a mouthful of mutton and put it in his mouth, and asked, "Ghost Li, has the information from Hexi City and the surrounding areas been sent?" ”

Standing in the shadow of the corner, the ghost said coldly: "There are 17 county towns in Hexi, and there are 10,000 Han households in Hexi City, about 50,000 people. The Xiongnu included 113 tribes scattered outside the city, 86 tribes of 100 people, 23 tribes of 1,000 people, and 4 tribes of more than 5,000 people. ”

"There are four big heroes in Hexi City, Li, Fang, Gu, and Lin, who monopolize salt, iron, grain and grass, and tea. Among them, the two families of Lin and the Huns have many contacts, and the specific relationship has not yet been clarified, so it can be said that Hexi is now the Huns covering the sky with one hand. ”

Wang Jun nodded, looked around at Xi Zhicai and the others, and said, "You have also heard the information of the ghost, tell me your opinion." ”

Zhang Fei was not afraid, and his mouth was to kill: "Directly subdue the Huns, Hexi is the territory of the lord, and there can only be the voice of the lord." ”

"Yide, don't be impatient." Xi Zhicai persuaded. "We have too few cavalry, and only by subduing the four major families in the city can we start to solve the problem of the Huns."

"Otherwise, we will fight with the Huns, and the four major families here will report the news and pull the hind legs, of course we are not afraid, but the soldiers can't bear it."

Guan Yu touched his long beard, his face was solemn, and said: "What Mr. Xi said is right, and winter is coming, we can only hurry up and solve the four major families in the city to fully guard against the raids of the Huns." ”

Wang Jun was a little troubled when he heard this, and said: "This official is afraid that winter will come too early, and at present, our grain can only last for less than two months, and we have to guard against the raids of the Huns." ”

"Since we are short of food and grass, let's just go and rob the Huns." Dian Wei said stupidly.

Xi Zhicai was speechless when he heard this, now that the Southern Xiongnu have taken refuge in the Great Khan, as long as they do not rebel, the imperial court will not make a big move against them.

Unless the Huns make the first move, Wang Jun will be reprimanded at the lightest, and he will lose his official position, thinking of Xi Zhicai's eyes getting brighter and brighter, and said: "Dian Wei is right, but we can't make the first move, we have to let the Huns do it first." ”

Then he muttered a few words softly in Wang Jun's ear, Wang Jun nodded, and said with a smile: "Zhicai, this matter will be handed over to you, and I will let Skynet cooperate with you." ”

Xi Zhicai clenched his fists and said, "No." ”

Outside the door, four maids carried lanterns to illuminate the ground, and came with Wang Xue and the three of them.

Seeing this, Wang Jun immediately changed the topic and said, "Let's eat!" ”

"No."
