Zhao Hanzhang led the army and the beggar army to Gucheng.

After only half a day's walk, they entered the territory of Valley City.

The scene of Gucheng is not much different from the outside, it is when the spring breeze is in full bloom, and the field grows more than a finger long green grass, looking at it from a distance, it looks like the scene of wheat seedlings returning to green in previous years.

But as soon as you get closer, you can see that it is stubble after stubble of grass.

Zhao Hanzhang reined in his horse and stood on the edge of the field to look into the distance, and Chen Wu dismounted and looked forward, but his eyes were blurred and he didn't know what he was looking at.

The soldiers passing behind him couldn't help but turn their heads and take a look, isn't it just a wasteland, what is there to see.

When he looked at it, he took a step slower, and the person behind him pushed him, "Don't look at it, hurry up, you are not a general, you can see what, look at the person Zhao Jiajun, neat." ”

Their general couldn't see anything, and Zhao Hanzhang stared at the front for a while and said, "This grass grows really well." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "Yes, it's very good-looking, what does the general see?" ”

Chen Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "This grass is so good, cows and horses should love to eat it, and they can raise cattle and horses?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "...... General Chen's good idea, then you can raise more cattle, and the cultivation will be effective. ”

She said, "This grass grows so well, it can be seen that this land is very fertile, and from here all the wasted fields under the gates of Gucheng will be cultivated for you." ”

Chen Wu asked hesitantly: "Then what should I do if the refugees who escaped come back to farm?" ”

"I'll give them another land," Zhao Hanzhang said, "These abandoned lands are directly nationalized, and now it's all mine...... Your Majesty's belongs to the official land, I said to cultivate it for you, you just have to plant it with confidence. ”

Chen Wu breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "That kind of ......?"

"I'll get someone to deliver it as soon as possible." Zhao Hanzhang got on the horse, pulled the reins and said, "Let's go, let's go see Gucheng." ”

The gates of Gucheng were wide open, the streets were empty, and many wild grasses and trees were popping up from the corners and walls, looking like a ghost town.

In fact, it's almost the same, Wang Mi and Liu Cong went south, except for some old, weak, sick and disabled people in this city, all who could escape fled.

The people in the county government also ran out, and a layer of fallen leaves and dust was spread on the ground.

Zhao Hanzhang touched the dust on the table in the lobby, clapped his hands and said, "Clean up this county office, and I'll send a new county order to Gucheng when I go back." ”

She looked at this street, and finally pushed open a big mansion on the left side of the county office, and said directly to Chen Wu: "This house is good, for General Chen, the general's mansion is located here, and General Chen will work here in the future." ”

Chen Wu: ......

He glanced at it and saw that although the house was overgrown with weeds and seemed to have been inhabited for a long time, the layout was not bad, and it could be inhabited after a little tidying up.

He stopped talking for a moment and then nodded, "Thank you, General Zhao." ”

Zhao Hanzhang said very generously: "The houses in the south and west of the city, in addition to the houses where people still live, you can choose, a household can only choose one set, soldiers can only be stationed in the camp, the square city gate and the barracks to you, three days later, make a sign with your own name and hang it outside the door, I will let people record, and the name of the head of the household and its head of household will be recorded on the sign." ”

Chen Wu should go down.

Zhao Hanzhang left, and in order to show her support for them, she first paid for their food and grass for the next month.

This time she gave not food, but money.

The soldiers brought in sacks of copper coins, Feng Long opened them, took out a hanging copper coin, untied them, took one and looked at it carefully, and said to Chen Wu: "It's official." ”

Chen Wu exhaled and said, "Let people go buy grain." ”

"Yes."

The people in the neighborhood have run out, and they have to travel a long way to buy food, and they have to go to Hedong County or Jingzhao County to buy it.

Feng Long should have responded, but the person didn't leave, he hesitated: "General, I remember taking the news that the emperor only appointed the county order of Luoyang County, it is the Zhao family, and there are no officials in other counties in Henan County, these places are not under the control of Zhao Hanzhang, right?" ”

Chen Wu sat on the steps, and after being silent for a long time, he said: "There is no one here, there is no official, whoever occupies it is whoever, she said that the appointment will be appointed, and there are people who can still grab the place where they have officials, what is so strange about this." ”

"It's not unusual, but she's under the banner of the emperor, so if this matter gets out, if the emperor sends someone over, where are we listening?"

Chen Wu said: "Unless she Zhao Hanzhang is treason and defects to the enemy, we will listen to whoever pays." ”

If the emperor is willing to pay for them, he can listen to the emperor, but will he pay for it?

Li Tou immediately nodded and said, "Yes, we will listen to whoever pays the money,"

Chen Chuan couldn't help but say: "Wouldn't it be rumored that the deceased is going to scold us for having milk and being a mother?" ”

Chen Wu waved his hand indifferently and said, "Just scold, just scold, as long as you can live." ”

Feng Long thought about it for a while, so he loaded the money into their ox cart and ordered troops to go out to buy food.

The beggar army had a special food buying team, and they were tired and hungry, and the beggar soldiers who were sitting on the street at random saw the food buying team driving out several cars, and there were sacks on the two cars in front of them, so they knew that they were going out to buy food.

So the beggar soldiers, who were originally half-dead, became enthusiastic and happily greeted the food buying team, "Pay attention to safety on the road." ”

"Go and get back soon."

When Chen Wu came out, they asked them to go to the south of the city and the west of the city to pick a house, and they also went with great interest.

In the past, they didn't have to work hard, but now there are empty houses everywhere, and it is not rare, but food and money are rare.

They still follow the previous habit of living in one house, so that they can take care of each other on weekdays, and they can respond quickly in the event of a war.

They didn't regard Gucheng as a place to live for a long time, and even if Zhao Hanzhang wanted to send them seeds to plant, they didn't think they would stay here for a long time.

They haven't been anywhere for a year since they left.

So they choose a house casually, push open the door, and make sure that there is no trace of living in it, so they live in one room by one, and some even live in one room by one.

Therefore, when Zhao Hanzhang sent someone to record the wooden cards, what he saw was that there were several wooden cards hanging outside each gate.

The logistics officer in the army immediately ran to Zhao Hanzhang to report the situation.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "Write it down truthfully, it's okay to accommodate more people, and they won't be noisy in the future." ”

Because of this sentence, when the logistics officers went to record the wooden cards again, they repeatedly asked: "Are you sure that this distribution is made, and you won't change it?" ”

The beggars disliked their verbosity and said impatiently: "It's confirmed, it's confirmed." ”

A half-grown boy leaned against the door dirty, shaking his legs and said: "I will go to the army in half a year, and I won't live here. ”

The logistics officer glanced at his leg and said, "It's good that you don't regret it in the future, once you make a book, you can't change it." ”

The half-grown boy rolled his eyes and said, "There are so many empty houses, if I really want to live alone, just find another one." ”

"That's not good, now those houses are owned by our envoys, and outsiders are no longer allowed to occupy them at will."

Half-grown boy: "Who's going to live?" There are a few other families in this city, just on the west side of the city, who else lives in this house besides us? ”

Soon, they knew.

Fu Tinghan brought people to escort the grain seeds and a group of people over.
