Chapter 548: Trust

Chen Wu really knew Chen Wan, and the other party was not only his brother, but also his subordinate.

He sighed and said: "When we fought with Shile in Jizhou, the whole team was scattered, I thought he was dead, but I didn't expect to be thrown under the general, he has luck." ”

Chen Wu hugged his fists and smiled: "Please take care of General Zhao in the future." ”

Zhao Hanzhang responded with his head down, and he was more confident in leaving the beggar army.

Zhao Hanzhang introduced Fu Tinghan to him, "This is Fu Tinghan, my fiancΓ©, if I am not there, the general has something to ask for, see him as if he sees me." ”

Chen Wu was puzzled, "Is there anything else between us?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "...... Do we need to discuss the construction of Gucheng's military defense? ”

Chen Wu couldn't help but look at Li Tou and the others on the side.

Li Tou said quickly: "Aren't we just guarding the city gate, staring outside, and fighting if the enemy comes to attack." ”

Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan: ......

Zhao Hanzhang hurriedly said: "No, no, no, we still have to do the construction of military defense, outposts, passes, and everything that should be built must be built, I have seen it, you have very few bows and arrows, and the cost of bows and arrows to defend the city is very large, how can you not have it?" ”

Chen Wu felt that her heart was really big, and said, "General Zhao, it's not that I don't want to, but I don't." ”

He said: "In my opinion, the place where the soldiers are stationed is the most urgent need for food, as long as you give us enough food and grass, the beggar army will definitely stick to the valley city." ”

"Then we have to defend it, and we have to hold it at a smaller cost," Zhao Hanzhang said: "If the whole army is destroyed and there are heavy casualties, what is the point of me defending this city?" ”

Chen Wu frowned, "Isn't Gucheng for Baoluoyang?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang said with a straight face: "Luoyang has natural risks, it is important, but Gucheng is also important, and the people in Gucheng are also important." ”

She said: "If you don't have arrows, then we will make arrows, so many people can always find someone who can make arrows, everyone learns and learns, and runs an arrow workshop." ”

Chen Wu couldn't help but go crazy, "General Zhao, we don't have an arrow." ”

"This is exactly what I want to tell the general, I have the arrow." Zhao Hanzhang looked at Fu Tinghan.

Fu Tinghan said: "I came this time and brought a few craftsmen over, and they will play arrows." ”

When Chen Wu heard this, he seemed to have some feelings, "General Zhao wants to buy iron for us?" ”

"No, it's ironmaking," Zhao Hanzhang grinned at him, "There is an iron mine in Gucheng." ”

Chen Wu's eyes slowly widened.

This was found by Fu Tinghan from the Luoyang Mansion, and a tax was paid to the Mansion every year, that is to say, this iron ore was still mined privately.

But since the year before, there has been no more taxes in the iron mines, and Gucheng has also fallen three times, and I think the situation of the mines will not be very good.

Fu Tinghan also found the drawings, and following the drawings, they found the iron mine.

Zhao Hanzhang led the horse around for half a circle, and found that this iron mine was not small, and there should have been a lot of workers who had mined at the beginning, and there were many rotten corpses in the mine.

Chen Wu followed to visit, looked at the scale of this iron mine, and was itching, "General Zhao, why don't I send troops to guard this iron mine?" ”

With this iron mine, Zhao Hanzhang should be able to hire them for a long time, right?

Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyebrows and refused with a smile, "It's good to leave this little thing to the people below, but the iron mine is also within the Gucheng, if there is a foreign enemy, it does need General Chen's help." ”

Zhao Hanzhang decided to shoot arrows here, but built an arrow workshop near the barracks, and the arrow workshop was run by Chen Wu and the Gucheng County Ya, where the arrows were assembled.

These arrows are not only for Gucheng, but also for Luoyang.

The corners of Zhao Hanzhang's mouth curled slightly, and he exhaled, and selected one person from her people to be the manager of the iron mine, and asked Zeng Yue to select a team of people to protect the iron mine.

Fu Tinghan walked around for half a circle, measured a lot of data, and after knowing the layout of the iron mine, he said to Zhao Hanzhang: "Let's go back." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded.

Taking Chen Wu and the others back, she smiled and said, "General Chen, in the future, Gucheng and the iron mine will be entrusted to you." ”

Chen Wu, who was contemplative, came back to his senses and nodded hurriedly: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

Back in Gucheng, Zhao Hanzhang continued to have a headache about Gucheng County's choice.

On the table is a list of this year's winners.

Fu Tinghan glanced at it and asked, "Haven't chosen anyone yet?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang sighed, closed the list and said: "The suitable one has been dispatched, and it is not good to be transferred again, and if it is not suitable, it is too dangerous to put it in this position." ”

"You are bold enough to directly expose the iron ore to Chen Wu."

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "I can't hide it, he doesn't know it for a while, but as long as a foreign enemy attacks Gucheng and the iron mine asks for help, he will know." ”

"Since you will all know, it is better to maximize the benefits," she said, "giving him half of the management rights of the Arrow Workshop will not only buy his heart, but also make him and me more deeply bound." Overall, the pros outweigh the cons. ”

Fu Tinghan: "Therefore, the Gucheng County Order must be cautious and cautious, both careful and bold." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded: "Not bad." ”

She now believes in the beggar army, but she doesn't believe it completely, so she has to leave someone to contain Chen Wu.

But she really doesn't have the right person right now.

Fu Tinghan also knew her difficulties, and said after a moment of silence: "There are a lot of things that need to be done here in Gucheng, and the five hundred households I brought from Luoyang are going to settle down, so it's better to hand them over to Fan Ying." ”

Zhao Hanzhang used Fan Ying very easily, and was reluctant to let her go.

Fu Tinghan said: "Take care of it first, and then recall her when you find the right person to take over." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "It's okay." ”

Fu Tinghan said: "Let's go, there are still many things waiting for you in Luoyang, Zhao Kuan just arrived in Luoyang, just because of the tough attitude of General Beigong and General Mi, so the refugees who were moved back to Luoyang were very unconvinced, and there were many people who escaped in the past two days." ”

Those are good citizens, they are not prisoners, slaves, nor military status, and they can't kill people just because they are moving, right?

Now the world is full of refugees in exile.

Zhao Hanzhang also knew that Luoyang's affairs were more urgent, so he left Yuan Li and a pro-army to help Fan Ying, and set off back to Luoyang the next day.

Chen Wu sent the people out of the city, and when he saw them go away, he turned his head to look at Fan Ying, "Fan County Order, there will be labor in the future." ”

Fan Ying bowed slightly, "It's all about eating the king, being loyal to the king, and if General Chen needs it in the future, just come to me." ”

In the future, she will also be responsible for the food and grass of the begging army.

Chen Wu smiled and nodded, the two separated at the city gate, Fan Ying returned to the county office, and Chen Wu went to see the military camp under construction.

Chen Chuan watched her back disappear, and couldn't help but say: "Zhao Hanzhang is so relieved to leave, the Yuan Li she left behind only brought a hundred soldiers, and there are still mainly clerks and quartermasters." ”

Chen Wu asked, "Do you want to occupy Valley City?" ”
