"Guan Qilin, thousands of households in the county, meet General Chen."

Guan Qilin didn't hesitate, as soon as he came in, he pushed the golden mountain and knelt on the ground like a jade pillar, and saluted respectfully.

His etiquette is not incomplete, and he does not look like a snake in the slightest.

Although the rank of the guard officer is lower than that of the battalion officer, the battalion officer has no command and no right to govern the guard officer, and the two do not belong to the same system.

Generally speaking, as a thousand households, Guan Qilin actually has no need to be so respectful.

But now it is not an ordinary situation, and now a large number of rogues have fled from Yuguan to Hanzhong Mansion.

The great war between Lüyang and Jinniu has already been introduced into Hanzhong Mansion.

Now the entire Hanzhong Mansion is already panicked, and as the first place to bear the brunt, many wealthy gentry have taken refuge in the direction of Nanzheng in the east.

Chen Wang left his seat, walked straight forward and helped Guan Qilin up, and said warmly.

"I and my subordinates observed the terrain in Dingjun Mountain, and there were many lazinesses, so please don't blame Guan Qianhu."

"Where, Where, ......"

Guan Qilin waved his hand again and again, accompanied by a smiling face.

"There's nothing important here, I just want to see what General Chen needs to help, although his ability is measurable, but as long as it can help, he will never shirk."

Guan Qilin was concerned in his heart, and put his identity very low, so he almost didn't say that he was working for dogs and horses.

He had heard that the Liukou had fled to Hanzhong and had fled all the way south.

It is said that the current Liukou seems to be in the area of Ningqiang Prefecture, that is, not far southwest of Chu County.

The reason why he came to Chen Wang was to know how Chen Wang was going to arrange it next, whether to suppress or defend.

Those rich gentry can escape, but he, a thousand households, can't escape.

As the town guard of the Thousand Households in Chu County, how could he flee and take refuge?

The responsibility of defending the territory is not only the magistrate of a county, but also the officers of the guard.

If he escapes, Guan Qilin, who is a thousand households, will not have enough to cut off ten heads, and he will also implicate the clan.

Why Guan Qilin put such a low posture, Chen Wang also knows it.

In the seventh year, the Liukou also broke through the Yu Pass once, and they entered Hanzhong to burn and loot, but they were blocked from the county.

However, at that time, it was because they had precautions and deployed troops in advance to guard the main road, so that the losses were minimized.

Guan Qilin didn't want him to go, and if he wanted him, he would garrison the army in Dingjun Mountain, keep the county from losing, and prevent the rogues from coming.

Chen Wang looked at Guan Qilin without leaving a trace, and he noticed that the clothes on Guan Qilin's body were quite thick and elegant.

It's just that the few family members who followed Guan Qilin were a lot colder, they were wearing cotton armor and slightly shabby, and the boots on their feet looked like they were some years old.

A glimpse of the whole leopard, Guan Qilin, as a thousand households, can't even dress his own family well, and the regular army and military surplus below are probably even more unbearable.

"At present, our army is not short of equipment for military salaries, grain and grass, but we are chasing all the way, recruiting and transporting grain and grass and military equipment, and many people have fled, and there are not many mules and horses......

"If it's convenient for Guan Qianhu, can you seconded a few sergeants to help transport heavy grain and grass."

Chen Wang helped Guan Qilin sit on the seat placed on the side, pretending to be embarrassed.

Chen Wang is pretending to be difficult, and Guan Qilin is really difficult.

"This ......"

"Now the sergeants in the Qianhu Institute have been transferred to the east, there are only about 100 regular soldiers, plus the rest of the army is only more than 200 people, I heard that the Liukou is going south, and now they are all in the county ......of Fen County."

"It's really a bit difficult for General Chen to ask for someone."

Guan Qilin's face was a little embarrassed, only half of his buttocks sat on the chair, his hands on his knees, and his body leaned forward extremely uncomfortably.

Chen Wang asked him to send people as auxiliaries to transport grain and grass, where could he transfer people.

Now there are more than 200 people in the county, and he gritted his teeth and spent a lot of money to find someone who is willing to replace him.

He was not rich when he was a thousand households in this county, and the military fields in the past were either occupied by King Rui in Hanzhong or stolen by those gentry.

The inland guards are much the same, the desertion is serious, and the Qianhu station under Guan Qilin is no exception, and it is located in the hinterland of Hanzhong, even if you want to hook the army, there is nowhere to go.

Guan Qilin's thousand-household office usually has only five or six hundred regular troops, less than half of the fixed number of troops, and now there are only more than 2,000 people in the entire thousand-household office, including the old, weak, women and children.

In the seventh year, the Liukou entered Hanzhong, and it was the Baocheng Zhixian who immediately cut off the plank road in the north to prevent the Liukou from entering the hinterland.

Guan Qilin was also ordered to lead the troops to guard the plank road at that time, and later Ning Qiang entered the Liukou again, and they followed Ning Qiang to suppress it.

After the two wars, nearly 100 people died outside in the guard, which also made the situation in the Qianhu Institute more and more embarrassing.

The imperial court is now in a storm, and even the pensions of the soldiers who died in the war cannot be issued in time, let alone the guards.

Everything was expected by Chen Wang.

Guan Qilin's answer, in fact, Chen Wang had long been clear, and he knew that Guan Qilin couldn't solve it before he threw out this question.

When asking someone to do something, you can start by making a big request that is difficult for the other person to accept.

Then lower the conditions and make smaller, more acceptable demands.

In this way, it is easier for the other party to accept psychologically and achieve the goal.

It's like the house is too dark, and some people say that if you open a skylight here, everyone must not allow it.

But if you advocate tearing down the roof, they will reconcile and be willing to open the skylight.

At this time, the Liukou suddenly went south, and the soldiers of Hanzhong Mansion were basically concentrated on the eastern front, and there was no time to look west.

At present, there are only more than 200 soldiers that can be mobilized by the entire 1,000 households in the county, that is, more than 200 people, and most of them are also indiscriminate.

The inland guard station has long been eroded, and it is not worthy of a war at all, and among the more than 200 people on paper, twenty or thirty who can fight are already considered Guan Qilin to be a capable general.

At the beginning of the Japanese rebellion, thousands of guards could be killed when they encountered dozens of Japanese invaders, and it was better to count on the guards in the interior than to count on meteorites falling from the sky to stone the enemy to death, and this probability was probably even greater.

"Chen's guerrilla position is based on a knife and a gun, and I also know the situation at the grassroots level of the guard, and I have also heard about the war in the east of Han, and there are no extra soldiers under Guan Qianhu to dispatch, so I don't have to worry too much."

Chen Wang's voice was slightly deep, and he sighed.

Guan Qilin's nervous expression relaxed a little, although he didn't get along with Chen Wang for a long time, he felt that this young guerrilla general seemed to be a good talker, at least he always spoke with a pleasant face, and did not reprimand him as if he were a subordinate.

When the battalion soldiers in the tent asked him to wait before, Guan Qilin thought that Chen Wang deliberately hung him aside to demonstrate the wind, and he had encountered such a situation more than once.

Although he is a thousand households, he is also the military attache of Zhengwupin and the military governor of a place.

But in this world, he is now respected and humble, and he, a five-grade guard, is even less powerful than the lord of the county and the county Cheng.

Chen Wang looked at Guan Qilin's expression without a trace, and slowly spoke.

"Guan Qianhu came all the way, you should have seen the homeless camp in Shanbei, right?"

Guan Qilin's expression moved slightly, he didn't know why Chen Wang suddenly asked this question, so he could only answer truthfully and nodded.

"General Chen has benevolence and virtue in his heart, and he helps the villagers who have suffered military disasters, although he is in the county, he has also heard from others."

These homeless people had come all the way behind Chen Wang's army, and he had received the news from the beginning.

The guerrilla general seems to have distributed the rations in his ranks to help the people who had been exiled due to the military disaster, and those people followed them all the way to Hanzhong from Luoyang and other places.

"Although the two battles of Luoyang and Jinniu were won, they could not make up for the impact of the war."

Chen Wang's expression was gloomy, and the biggest damage caused by the rogues was not actually in the military, but in the civil affairs.

Everywhere the rogue went, there was really almost no grass.

They are like a swarm of locusts, who do not produce, but know only destruction, and destroy one place after another.

At this time, the Ming Empire was in a period of internal and external turmoil, and its finances were on the verge of collapse, and it was simply unable to solve many problems in people's livelihood.

The scourge of the Rogue is a dead end for the Ming Empire today.

"The rogue invaded all the way to burn, kill and loot, the people along the road suffered from military disasters and their houses were destroyed, there was no place to shelter from the wind and rain, and there was no food supply for the winter, and no one in the states and counties along the road was willing to take care of it."

"The reason why the rogues invaded Hanzhong was, in the final analysis, that Chen was ineffective in suppressing them, which caused continuous disasters to the people ......"

Chen Wang's eyes were cold, his expression was slightly dark, and his voice was low.

This military disaster in Hanzhong was completely caused by him.

This disaster should not have happened to Hanzhong, but his plan had to enter Hanzhong Mansion, and he needed an excuse.

The problem in front of Chen Wang is a tram problem.

A madman tied five innocent people to the tram tracks.

An out-of-control tram was coming towards them and was about to run over them in a few moments.

Luckily, you can pull a lever and let the tram go to another track.

The problem, however, is that the madman also tied a man to another tram track.

It's a dilemma, and there's a huge problem no matter how you choose.

Chen Wang had to make a choice, he chose the lesser of two harms, and it was the lever that represented life and death that he pulled.

He was never a saint, but he wasn't hard-hearted either.

Without him to attract these rogues, the rogues would have invaded Hanzhong in the future, and Hanzhong would have suffered even greater suffering and destruction.

And when the Qing troops enter the customs, the war will sweep across the entire Shenzhou.

On the one hand, the distribution of military rations to the displaced people is for future planning, and on the other hand, it is also to minimize the disaster as much as possible.

Only when he enters Hanzhong can he have more autonomy and be able to secretly run the foundation.

If you don't enter Hanzhong, you can only keep going back and forth for the next few years, going back and forth, and you will be exhausted.

Bad luck fell on the road of rushing, and was brushed aside in the history books.

Luckily, there are only one more He Renlong or Zuo Liangyu-like characters in this world.

But whether it was to become He Renlong or Zuo Liangyu, there was no way to stop the impending catastrophe.

"You and I both know that now is the season of cold and freezing, no food, no shelter, is a dead word."

Chen Wang picked up the tea cup that was placed aside, and his eyes moved to Guan Qilin, who was sitting on the side.

What he said was obvious enough, and he was waiting for Guan Qilin's answer.

Tomorrow should be able to resume normal updates.,I'm really sorry for all book lovers who chase books.
