After learning that Emperor Qin was furious and ordered to track down the news of the resumption of the Congress, Lin Ze was not surprised at all, with Emperor Qin's character, it would be strange if he didn't fight back.

Lin Ze turned his head to look in the direction of Dongshan Province, and a sneer appeared on his face and thought: "Bullshit Restoration Meeting, Emperor Qin will not die, and you will only be a courtier after all.

It was Zhao Gao who became a court lieutenant, which made Lin Ze a little surprised, but he didn't expect that he would help Zhao Gao by accident.

I just don't know if Zhao Gao will support Hu Hai as always after becoming a court lieutenant, it stands to reason that he will, after all, Hu Hai has always been close to him, how can he be more popular with him than Fusu, Lin Ze thought.

In any case, only if his own strength is strong, Lin Ze showed a determined look on his face, and rushed to Shu at a faster speed.

......

Shudi, since Lin Ze left, Hu Hai has been out for a long time, Chen Ping, as the highest official of Shu "on the post", can be described as conscientious and conscientious, and dare not slack off.

Although he handled government affairs as before, with Lin Ze staring at him in the past, Chen Ping always had an idea: even if he couldn't solve it himself, his uncle Lin Ze would come out.

Just like the workplace in later generations, there is a leader who bears the burden on it, does things, has no scruples, and when he becomes a leader, he is a little constrained.

Now that the autumn harvest is approaching, Chen Ping does not dare to slack off, not only to make reasonable arrangements for forced labor to ensure that the people have sufficient labor to collect grain, but also to assign errand servants to various localities to organize the collection of grain taxes.

And according to the strategy formulated by Lin Ze before, the surplus grain and grass in the hands of the people must be collected as the reserve grain of the Shu army.

Of course, Chen Ping also had to take into account Hu Hai's "private property", the hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land he had obtained from the three major families earlier.

Except for some of the innocent tenant farmers of the three major families, Lin Ze cultivated these fertile lands by captive barbarians.

As Hu Hai's subordinate, Chen Ping naturally had to arrange for someone to keep an eye on his boss's harvest.

However, the accident still happened, and the barbarian captives who had been guarding their land for three years suddenly gathered a crowd to make trouble.

A few days ago, in a field in Shudi, the rice was gradually ripening, and the barbarian captives in charge of planting, under the command of experienced tenant farmers, began to release the water from the rice fields so that the rice could be better harvested in a few days.

There is a barbarian named Akumi, he belongs to the luck of misfortune, after the Shu army broke through his stockade, the big leader was killed, and the wizard immediately led the others to surrender, so Akumi's family surrendered intact, unlike other barbarians, more or less relatives and friends, died in the hands of the Shu army.

After being a captive, Akumi was arranged to farm smoothly, and naturally there was not much resistance to this, at least the family could live in peace.

Until a pastoral steward took a fancy to his daughter.

Akumi's daughter is very small, only six years old, and she is very bright, and she looks like a beautiful embryo at first glance.

Of course, the steward is not a beast, he doesn't want to have a beastly heart for Akumi's daughter, but wants to take his daughter as a little singer, cultivate her, and then send it out at a critical moment to get the greatest benefit.

When the steward proposed to take away Akumi's daughter, he encountered strong opposition from Akumi, and the steward left in anger, which naturally brought disaster to this barbarian family.

The steward exhausted all means to get Akumi's daughter into his subordinates, but although Akumi's daughter was young, she was a fierce man, and after leaving her parents at a young age, she chose to go on a hunger strike.

The steward tried his best to get Akumi's daughter to obey, and finally sent the little girl who had been hungry for four days back to Agumi's house.

A six-year-old girl, after four days of starvation, was already angry, and when she returned to her parents, she closed her eyes completely without even saying a word.

Ah Gumi naturally refused to give up, holding his daughter's corpse, and ran around asking for help, trying to save her.

The rest of the barbarians were naturally powerless to bring the dead back to life, but the grief and indignation were stored in their hearts.

There were already barbarians who were dissatisfied with their own farming as captives, and after some instigation, this group of barbarians immediately planned to unite and make trouble.

Unfortunately, the stewards of this area were gathering together to drink and have fun, and neglected supervision, so that this group of barbarians had an opportunity, and in one day, tens of thousands of barbarian people made a rebellion together, and they took the opportunity to kill the stewards and plague other places in Shu.

After Chen Ping received the letter, the barbarians gathered 100,000 people and attacked Jiangyou City.

Chen Ping's face turned black on the spot, and he had promised his uncle that he would guard this thousand-mile land for his son and him, but in less than a month, this Shu land was in chaos.

It is initially estimated that at least one-fifth of Shu has become a desolate land due to the ravages of barbarians.

Civilians were killed, houses and villages were destroyed, and dozens of miles of land were uninhabited.

Chen Ping immediately summoned the officials of the Shu Governor's Mansion to discuss the matter of quelling the rebellion.

Chen Ping's first order was that all counties and counties must guard their own jurisdictions, and are not allowed to attack the barbarians without permission.

The second order was to mobilize 20,000 troops from Shudi, led by Sikong Ma, and rush to Jiangyou to relieve the siege.

Under Lin Ze's three-year operation, there were a total of 80,000 troops in Shudi, 30,000 were taken by Han Xin to conquer the southern barbarians, 20,000 were taken by Hu Hai and Yu Ziqi to encircle and suppress the remnants of the western barbarians, and the remaining 30,000 troops, Chen Ping only left 10,000 to garrison Shudu, and the rest were sent out to quell the rebellion.

At the same time, Chen Ping personally visited the Ba family and asked the widow Qing for assistance in quelling the rebellion.

The widow Qing was very bold, and after knowing Chen Ping's intention, she immediately promised to arrange six six-rank martial artists to help, and within an hour, she recalled six six-rank martial artists and set off with the army led by Sikong Ma.

The barbarian army gathered together is not terrible, it is just a rabble, just because all those warriors who have commendable courage and are not weak in force have basically died in the process of conquering the barbarians.

Don't look at the 100,000 barbarians, under the leadership of the six-rank warriors, Sikong Ma led an army of 20,000 and quickly defeated the improvised army of the barbarians and captured them again.

However, the matter is not over yet, and Chen Ping still faces several problems:

First, what will happen to the recaptured and remaining barbarians?

Let's not say that the killing of prisoners is unknown, let's just say that killing so many people at one time, even if Chen Ping has this heart, he does not have the courage, after all, he is only a young man who has not yet stood up, and he may not be able to do it.

If you don't kill, how can you explain to the dead stewards, and how can you explain to the people who died at the hands of the barbarians?

In addition, if you don't kill them, will you keep them all the time?

If you don't support them and rebel once, can Chen Ping rest assured that he will continue to let them go back to farming?

Chen Ping only felt that his head was about to explode.

The second problem: due to the barbarian rebellion, one-fifth of the fertile land in Shu has failed, and the grain production has been greatly reduced.

The grain tax handed over to Chang'an is good to say, anyway, Hu Hai has been approved by the Qin Emperor, and gold and copper can be used instead.

However, the soldiers' rations were an unavoidable problem, and Chen Ping couldn't let the soldiers who were fighting abroad go hungry.

Not to mention that Hu Hai and Lin Ze will not agree to him doing this, if he really wants to do this, then the soldiers will be the next time he will make trouble.

Third: To deal with the counties after the barbarian rampant, Chen Ping had to first clear the remnants of the barbarians in these counties, and then move the people over to resume production.

Otherwise, these counties will soon become a hundred miles of ghosts, without the slightest value.

After the reason for the barbarian rebellion came out, Chen Ping couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's my own negligence." ”

Chen Ping didn't think it was a matter of managing things entirely, if no one secretly instigated it, but a dead little girl, how could such a big mess happen?

While organizing manpower to count losses and resume production, Chen Ping sent a letter to Lin Ze, asking Lin Ze to come back as soon as possible to get an idea.
