When he arrived in Shangdanglu County, Zhao Hanzhang saw Wu Erlang, handed over Ming Pre to him, and told him: "To protect Mr. Ming, on the bright side, you are the superior, and Mr. Ming is the staff, but how the team behaves is all up to Mr. Ming." ”

Wu Erlang should go down.

After finishing the business, Zhao Hanzhang mentioned his private affairs, "Your nephew and niece are now in Chen County, this time I will go back to Yuzhou, if you have anything to explain to them, you can write a letter, turn it back and hand it over to Tinghe, and hand it over to them when you return to Chen County." ”

Wu Erlang was overjoyed, and hurriedly went down to write a letter.

Wu Erlang was illiterate, just clever, but in the past few years, he has learned to recognize a lot of words when he has to read the account book.

It's not as good as his younger nephews and nieces, but he also knows a lot of words, but he can't write very well, and he can write badly, but he still likes to write letters to his nephews and nieces.

The central idea is that you should study hard, repay the girl in the future, practice martial arts well, and make contributions to the battlefield in the future, and glorify your ancestors;

Don't spend the money you give you, save it, and when I go back to marry my daughter-in-law, if I can't marry my daughter-in-law, it will also be my pension money, and I have to buy a house......

Finally, I will briefly mention that I am safe outside, so that they can also take care of themselves.

Wu Erlang's caravan only traveled in the north, giving outsiders the impression that his master had some face in front of Zhao Hu, so he could get a lot of rare things in Yuzhou.

People outside didn't know that he was Zhao Hanzhang's person.

Wu Erlang and Ming Pre took a few carts of jewelry to Xihe Kingdom, this time the matter was important, so Zhao Hanzhang sent them another Zhao family army, plus more than a dozen carts of goods, the caravan was mighty, and it looked very fat.

However, ordinary bandits and horse thieves did not dare to provoke them.

As soon as they left, Zhao Hanzhang separated from Ji Yuan, and she led the army back to Yuzhou in a hurry, accompanied by Fu Tinghan.

People's minds will change, we must look at the world from a dynamic perspective, and stubborn persistence will only cause rigidity of thinking.

So after using gunpowder once, Zhao Hanzhang completely opened this Pandora's box, and whether it came out was a devil or a fairy, it was up to her to decide.

Fu Tinghan didn't say much, if she wanted it, he would make it for her.

Wei County and Ji County have been captured by Beigong Chun and Zu Ti, when Zhao Hanzhang passed, the territory occupied by Beigong Chun, the officials who stayed behind came to visit her, Zhao Hanzhang only hurriedly saw them and ordered them to get out of the way and let the army pass.

And when he arrived at the place captured by Zu Ti, he also ordered people to get out of the way early, and Zhao Hanzhang led the army to rush over, and then there was Dunqiu County, which Shile had occupied.

Shile needed a large army to attack, and there were not many people left to defend the place.

He also knew that if he built a place, he would have to leave enough people to govern and guard the place, and his people would be far from enough, so he still had to use local people to govern.

So if there is an official who surrenders, he will use that official, or choose a gentry from the locality, to take charge in his place.

Shi Leman beat hundreds of thousands of people, and he couldn't take a city and slaughter all the officials, gentry and people inside, right?

So he also killed chickens and monkeys, killed some people to deter, and then used the locals to continue to govern.

As a result, most of the people in the city are still locals, and even the officials are Jin ministers and Jin people.

As soon as Zhao Hanzhang's army arrived, the will of the people in the city to resist from top to bottom was not very strong, and the garrison left by Shile resisted desperately.

But when a cannonball landed on the city tower, it blew up the people on it, and the cloud echelon that had been waiting quickly ran forward, and the cloud ladder climbed up quickly, and jumped up the city tower......

Dunqiu County was lost in an instant, the ladder death squad opened the city gate, and the vanguard army entered the city, and when the city gate was completely controlled, Zhao Hanzhang led people into the city.

The streets of the city were in shambles, and except for the casualties of the soldiers and the prisoners crouching on the ground, the city was silent, and there seemed to be no one else.

Cui Shi, the county magistrate of Dunqiu County, led the officials of the county government and the squire in the county to kneel not far away, he peeked at Zhao Hanzhang approaching on horseback, and immediately lowered his body, almost throwing himself to the ground.

Everyone lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak, and the bodies of the villagers who knelt at the front with Cui Shi trembled slightly, and their hands on the ground could barely support their bodies.

They lowered their eyes, they didn't dare to lift an inch up, their eyes could only see a little bit on the side of their thumbs, at this time their hearing was very sensitive, they heard heavy and orderly footsteps coming towards them, they knew that this was Zhao Jiajun!

I don't know what Zhao Hanzhang will do with them, although it is rumored that she has been treating the captives well, but they are different from ordinary captives, they are Jin people, they first voted for Shile, and in just one month, they switched to Zhao Hanzhang when the Zhao family army attacked the city, can she accept it?

Just thinking about it, Cui Shifu's arm was grabbed and he was lifted up.

Cui Shi raised his head in a daze, and saw Zhao Hanzhang half-squatting to help him up.

Cui Shi didn't dare to get up, only straightened his waist slightly, and even said that he didn't dare.

Zhao Hanzhang asked: "Shile attacked Dunqiu, how many casualties did you have?" After entering the city, will it be difficult for you? ”

Cui Shi's tears poured out violently, he grabbed Zhao Hanzhang's hand and cried bitterly, and for a while he was so out of breath that he burst into tears, tears and snot flowed together.

He raised a sleeve to wipe his face, wanting to stop and not cry, but he couldn't help it, even he didn't know that there were so many grievances in his heart.

When the officials and squires behind him heard this, they couldn't help but sob, and tears flowed down their eyes.

Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help but wet his eyes, helped Cui Shi up, and then went to help the villager behind him, choked and comforted: "I know, it is very difficult for you to defend the city, there are your parents, wives and children in this city, and there are so many people who rely on you, and the burden on your body is very heavy, I am embarrassed for you, I am sorry for you!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the villager who was supported by her couldn't hold back anymore, and as soon as his body sank, he sat on the ground and cried, and the others also cried, and the scene was full of crying.

Cui Shi wiped away his tears and snot, knelt on the ground again with red eyes, and bowed deeply: "The general's words are ashamed of us, we as Jin ministers failed to defend the land, as Jin people, we can't defend the land with our lives, we are really ashamed of the world, if I don't rest assured that the people of this city are full of people, I really want to die for the country." ”

Zhao Hanzhang wanted to help him up, but when he refused to get up, he took his hand and said: "Cui County's order is bad, the meaning of a city must be defended is that its existence can keep more people, such as Shangdang, Luoyang and other places, because of the whole body that is involved, so it has to stay to the death." ”

"As for other cities, the life and death of their cities are more related to the life and death of the people of a city," Zhao Hanzhang said: "I am very happy that Cui County's order can protect the people of Dunqiu." ”

She smiled: "My wish is to let the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment, I don't care if you are in the Jin Kingdom, or under Liu Cong, or under Shi Le, as long as you can live a good life and live your life well, I will be satisfied." ”

"If you can't do it, then you have to live first, and when I have the ability to shelter you in the future, I will naturally shelter you again," Zhao Hanzhang said: "You did a good job this time, and saved the vast majority of people first, I am very grateful to you, and Your Majesty will also be very grateful to you." ”

When Cui Shi heard this, tears burst out of his eyes again, and he took Zhao Hanzhang's hand and cried bitterly: "General, envoy, in the battle of Shile, we have more than 36,000 dead and wounded in Dunqiu County, I have been waiting for reinforcements for a long time, and I am really desperate, so I have to surrender to the enemy, otherwise, he will slaughter me all over the city." ”

Zhao Hanzhang helped the person up with tears in his eyes, and nodded with tears, "I know, I know, the incident happened suddenly, and all localities could not provide assistance, this is the fault of me, the general, and Your Majesty, we didn't arrange you well." ”

The group cried at each other and almost vented their emotions, so Zhao Hanzhang helped the leaders of the group up, and everyone went to the county government together.

Cui Shi glanced at the captives who were escorted out, and hurriedly said that there were some people in them.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Don't worry, since someone has to screen their identities, and my Zhao Jiajun has always treated the captives well, they will be fine." ”

Cui Shi was relieved at this time, he turned around and glanced outside the city, from here he could still see the neatly lined army outside the city, he swallowed his saliva, and hurriedly said to Zhao Hanzhang: "General, do you want to invite the army into the city?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang shook his head, "They are stationed outside the city, these people in the city are enough, it is inconvenient for us to stay for a long time, and the future governance of Dunqiu will depend on you." ”

Cui Shi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, he was actually afraid that the army would enter the city, and when the time came, Dunqiu County was afraid that it would experience another loot. The catastrophic scene of Shile's army entering the city is still vivid.

The squires who were listening on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly gave Cui Shi a look, and Cui Shi hurriedly said: "Then I will let people prepare the grain, grass, vegetables and meat for the army......"

Zhao Hanzhang's eyes swept over their faces, shook his head and said, "No need, you have only experienced hardships, and life is also very difficult." ”

She looked at the few villagers behind Cui Shi, and said solemnly: "But if you have a surplus in your hands, please help the people in the city, I know that the Shile army will enter the city to loot, this year's year is not good, everyone's life is already difficult, and if you encounter this again, for ordinary people, it will be tantamount to a catastrophe." ”

"The vitality and prosperity of a place are inseparable from the local people, and I ask you to help them so that they can tide over this difficulty."

The villagers' eyes were red, and they hurriedly nodded in response, saying that they would let people take out food for disaster relief after they went back.

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, and then returned to the county government with Cui Shi.

She politely declined their invitation to hold a dinner party, and then discussed with them in detail about the reconstruction of Donqiu County in the future.

In just over an hour, Fu Tinghan and Fan Ying had already straightened out the situation in Dunqiu County, counted the people left by Shi Le, handed over the dead and wounded to Cui Shi to deal with, and those who were still alive and intact were all taken away as prisoners.

The rest of the captured local garrisons and officials were released, and at the same time, they also counted the spoils of war this time, and touched the financial situation of Dunqiu County.

Fu Tinghan and Fan Ying just made a brief record, the notes were very sloppy, but Zhao Hanzhang looked at it very carefully, and after reading it carefully, she pondered for a moment and said to Cui Shi: "I will leave you some weapons and armor so that you can defend the city in the future." ”

Cui Shi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly responded.
