"Wang Mi, this poor ghost!"

"Liu Yuan is also a poor ghost!"

On the post road, the more Chen Yougen thought about it, the more angry he became, and he took a horsewhip to whip the prisoner.

The captives were beaten and screamed, but they did not dare to resist.

"Cowardice!" Chen Yougen beat him again, and then let go of this unlucky captive.

Shao Xun stood on the hillside, watching the procession slowly moving forward on the post road.

Captive, captive, captive......

Carriage and horses, carriage horses, or carriage horses......

"Fortunately, less than 6,000 people were arrested, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to raise them." Shao Xun made a joke, but it was also true.

Liu Ling stood aside and bowed his head silently.

After he was captured, no one paid attention to him and left him out in the cold for several days. And because he is tall and burly, he is also shackled, and it is inconvenient to eat, and he is so uncomfortable that he is to death.

After grinding like this for a few days, the Duke of Luyang County was finally willing to see him yesterday.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately told everything he knew—without torture.

The Duke of Luyang County asked him if he would like to be a groom, and he was overjoyed and agreed on the spot.

Therefore, he has now become a "glorious" horseman, specializing in driving horses or driving carriages for Luyang County.

"King Kong slave, do you dare to go to Luoyang?" Shao Xun asked suddenly.

"I'm going alone?"

"Someone will accompany you."

"Yes." Liu Ling did not hesitate and immediately responded.

"Without further ado, let's get going." After speaking, Shao Xun summoned a scribe and a personal soldier, and took Liu Ling to Liang County, and then Pei Kang led people to Luoyang to have Chen Xiongnu's inside story to the Son of Heaven.

After everyone arrived, Liu Ling saluted and turned to leave.

Shao Xun glanced at him.

This person is still very interesting, very realistic, and can be called a model of motherhood with milk.

Available, but not trusted.

Liu Ling is also very talkative, and he has a little humor when he speaks.

He once mentioned to Shao Xun that Liu Yuan "discovered" the jade seal in Fenshui, and there were words on it: "There is a new guarantee." ”

It is said to be the jade seal of Wang Mang's time, which is simply nonsense.

He also mentions an incident that has been widely circulated in Pingyang: Liu Yuan thinks that his soldiers can be ten at a time - of course, this is what Liu Yuan said when he boosted morale, and there is a specific context, but most people do not know it, and only preach it around.

"Today, I see more than 100,000 people, all of them are promoted to ten, and the drum is going to destroy Jin, and Yula has dry ears. The top can become Henkel's business, and the bottom can be Wei's. This was four or five years ago, when Liu Yuan's main force was still the Fifth Division of the Huns, and there were more than 100,000 Ding Zhuang.

Liu Ling complained to Liu Yuan as much as he could, making him worthless. Chen Yougen and other generals listened to it and despised him.

Is it the monarch you once took refuge in, once you change the court, you will hurt others like this?

The character is too poor to have deep friendships.

"Governor." A messenger galloped over, dismounted from a distance, walked a few steps, and handed over an edict to Tang Jian.

Shao Xun took it and looked at it, sneered, and said, "Don't go!" ”

Tang Jian, Chen Yougen, Jin San and the others all looked at him.

"The Son of Heaven ordered me to go east to Baima to reinforce Wang Kan, Liu Qia, Wang Shiwen and others." Shao Xun explained.

"Seeing the sky, use us as cattle and horses!" Chen Yougen was furious.

In this battle, the government soldiers led by him were repeatedly caught in battle and destroyed, and the casualties were not small. Just finished beating Hongnong, and is going to Baima again, this is to let them fight people little by little.

"Governor, you still have to respond well." Tang Jian was thoughtful and reminded.

"Hmm......" Shao Xun thought for a while, and said: "Then find a scribe to write a letter and a song, and consider the words, to the effect that our department is tired from a long battle, has suffered heavy casualties, and is short of food and equipment, and the sergeant is full of complaints, so it is not appropriate to move lightly." ”

"Now we should stick to Yiyang, guard this way for the imperial court, and prevent the Huns from raiding."

"One more thing, the Xiongnu have been vigorously reorganizing their troops and horses, and they will go south in October at the latest, and the imperial court should be prepared to deal with it."

"These are enough, just do it, and send it to Luoyang after writing."

"Yes." Tang Jian immediately found someone to do it.

Shao Xun shook his head, this was not what the Son of Heaven meant, but an order given by Sima Yue in the name of the Son of Heaven.

What are you kidding?

No matter how strong the soldiers are, they will be transferred back and forth by you, tossing and turning, and in the end, they will not be able to exert much combat power.

A bunch of insects, the pattern is too small, and all they think about all day long is infighting.

The army returned to Yiyang in mid-September and was stationed on the spot to recuperate.

At this time, Shao Xun suddenly received a gift: twenty horses and sixty pinned horses.

This was sent by Beigong Chun by a detour.

The reason is that last year, Shao Xun selected some Yiyang specialties and handed them over to the angel to bring to Liangzhou and give them to Zhang Rail.

In his heart, Zhang Liang has always regarded Yiyang as his real hometown, and his feelings are very deep, and he is very happy after seeing the specialties of his hometown, which should be his return gift.

And the gift selection is quite thoughtful.

The horse was exactly what he needed.

After several years of searching, the number of mares has not exceeded 200, and there are more than 200 horses.

The twenty horses were also not castrated, which was really interesting, but they could be used for breeding.

On September 16, Shao Xun ordered Yiyang Sanwu to seize the time for autumn sowing.

He was planning to gamble, which also showed that he would not leave here easily, and Sima Yue's calculation was afraid that it would fail.

******

The news of Hongnong's victory had already spread throughout the Luoshui River Valley, and after learning of the return of the army, Du Yin rushed to Jinmenwu as soon as possible.

On the post road on the bank of Luoshui, a group of captives walked forward dejectedly.

The commanders of the local dock forts such as Yiquanwu, Yanggongwu, and Heshuiwu all came, and quietly watched these captives without a trace of noise.

They even saw the Huns - you don't have to listen to them, just look at the hair accessories.

This kind of realistic education is more effective than anything else.

Before the war, they were crooked, and if they gave out some money and food, they had to warn the left and threaten the right, but now?

"Ming Gong is a true god and a man." Du Yin bowed deeply and sighed.

"Ming public soldiers, a hundred battles are won. Wei Ming Gong, the Huns have stepped on Luoshui, and the soldiers are in Yiyang. Yang Gongwu, the dock master, Yang Hui, praised.

Everyone stepped forward one after another, and the words were flooded.

Shao Xun smiled, waved his hand and said: "Without further ado, the Huns are just the strikers being repulsed, and it is not yet time to take them lightly." ”

"What? Will the Huns come? There was a breathless Wubao marshal who asked in surprise.

The others looked at each other as well.

Liu Han was captured and beheaded more than 20,000 people this time, how dare he come?

"Shao Taibai can't go." Someone shouted again.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone looked sideways.

Although many people think that Luyang County is too white and star, there are almost no people who announce it in person, and this guy is the first one in Yiyang to say so.

Maybe he himself thought it was too appalling, smiled awkwardly, and quietly hid behind.

Shao Xun didn't seem to hear it, but said: "The Huns will come, don't doubt it." Either go to Yiyang, or go to Xin'an, or go to Hanoi, you still need to be strong, and Hugh should take it lightly. ”

Du Yin and the others exchanged glances, and they could see each other's worries.

This worry is not because the Huns are coming, but because of the war.

The Xiongnu or Shao Xun occupy Yiyang, and there is not much difference for them, and they will ask for money, grain, and Ding Zhuang.

It's better that the Huns don't come, so there will be no war, and they won't have to pay for food and supplies.

"Ming Gong, I don't know ...... the Zhuwu tribes that were requisitioned before the war" After exchanging glances, Du Yin asked on behalf of everyone.

"Do you still have a conscience?" Before Shao Xun could speak, Chen Yougen's thunderous voice had already sounded: "If it weren't for the governor to repel the thieves, you would not only have to send money and grain to Ding Zhuang, but I am afraid that you would also send women to the army and send protons to the Hun army." What part? Nope. ”

As soon as Chen Yougen's voice fell, everyone lost color.

"Rooted, shut up." Shao Xun reprimanded, then turned his head and said gently: "There are still more than 4,000 people in the Zhuwu tribe, and I left them in Huixibantun. If the Xiongnu go south, this is the only way, and it must be guarded, and now is not the time to disband the troops, so be restless. ”

Du Yin sighed secretly in his heart, he was afraid that he would not come back. Moreover, it is difficult to ask them to provide food to feed them.

That's it!

But Shao Xun won a big battle and was in full swing. Du Yin didn't dare to bargain openly, so he could only hold back.

"Don't be dissatisfied!" Chen Yougen was just reprimanded, but he was unforgiving, and still muttered: "Who let the winter wheat be sown last year?" Wang Taiwei was also asked by the governor of Shao to carry out this matter in the counties. If the governor doesn't mention it, you will wait to drink the northwest wind this year! ”

When everyone heard this, their faces were ashamed, and their momentum fell to the bottom, and they didn't dare to mention anything to release them.

"The Huixi Bantun army is very hard, and you have to worry about the grain and grass." Shao Xun said.

"This ......" Du Yin hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "This matter is my responsibility." ”

As soon as he said something, it was difficult for others to say anything.

There were one or two dock masters who timidly proposed to send their nephews to lead their own subordinates, but Shao Xun's eyes were swept away, and he was suddenly dumb and didn't dare to speak again.

Shao Xun took Du Yin's hand and said, "I also have a family business in Yiyang, and I am half a Yiyang person. The future of Yiyang has to be made by everyone. There are 4,200 people stationed in Huixiban, and I intend to compile it into a single unit, with the military name 'Zhongwu', can Du Gong yield to the post of deputy governor of the Zhongwu Army? ”

"It's as good as it gets." Du Yin quickly adjusted his mentality, bowed, and said.

Shao Xun nodded with satisfaction, and said: "I heard that there are many officials in Yiyang County, and there are many people who are unbearable. Before setting out on the expedition, I consulted Pan Ling, planning to replace some people. To tell you the truth, most of these people are my protégés, and they will go to the countryside to do things in the future, and I hope that Du Gong will make it convenient, can I? ”

"Good ......," Du Yin responded numbly.

Luyang County Gong swallowed Yiyang in one bite.

If it is said that in the past, only the county commander Pan Si was inclined to him, but ten miles out of the county seat, everything was still decided by the commanders of Wubao, but now it is different.

For example, the protégé of Luyang County became a soldier of Yiyang County, Cao Peng, and went to various dock forts to recruit soldiers, but did he give it?

Fang Cai promised him to "make it convenient", and if he regrets it in the future, won't people really be mad?

When Shao Xun heard this, he smiled and said, "I am very happy to see all the talents in Yiyang today. I am a landlord in Jinmenwu, how can I not prepare a banquet? Don't leave anyone, don't get drunk and don't return. ”

After hearing this, Tang Jian didn't need Shao Xun's orders, he had already sent his own soldiers to prepare.

Yiyang County is very important, and the household registration is very solid. With the war, many people came here for refuge. The population of this county may not be less than that of the other five counties combined.

On the way to the class, the governor had mentioned that he had discussed with Yuanfujun to relocate the remaining people from Hu, Shaanxi, and Hongnong counties - if they could not be settled, they would be evacuated to Guangchengze.

Even Yuanfujun himself, his mind was shaken.

His family is about to move to Liang County.

Once there is disharmony, take people to avoid Zhuyang in the south (Zhuyang County of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Zhuyang County of the Tang Dynasty, now Zhuyang Town), and then set the next step.

When it comes to life and death, no one is stupid.

It really didn't work, so he directly pulled the troops away and took refuge in Shao Gong.

It's not that people don't dare to do this, it's just that they are reluctant to lose their hard-won official position.
