After rushing with all his strength, it only took Lin Ze less than half a day to catch up with Wu Fan and the others who were walking rapidly, and then he was included in the team as if nothing had happened.

The others did not show any strangeness about Lin Ze's return.

Wu Fan, who was careful, noticed that Lin Ze's face was calm and he didn't say a word, and secretly thought in his heart: Could it be that adults can't do anything, they didn't do anything, and retreated, so they are not in a good mood?

Thinking of this, Wu Fan mustered up the courage to persuade: "My lord, you are still young, your future martial arts achievements will definitely be extraordinary, don't care about temporary gains and losses." ”

Lin Ze raised his head and looked at his subordinate in surprise, completely unable to understand what he wanted to express.

Wu Fan's scalp was numb when he saw it, thinking that he had said the wrong thing, and accidentally angered Lin Ze, and hurriedly explained: "My lord, forgive me, my subordinates just talked nonsense." ”

Lin Ze said "oh" and said, "In the future, I will not commit this kind of muddy." By the way, go back and explain to the others, this official has been walking with you and has not been separated. ”

"Subordinates obey orders," Wu Fan immediately replied briskly, thinking very understandingly: It turns out that adults are also good-looking, and what he just said was too abrupt.

A few days later, the news that the governor of Dongshan and his personal guards had died in an ambush by the traitorous party reached Wu Fan's ears, and he glanced at Lin Ze with awe.

After all, this world is a world where martial arts are respected, and the stronger Lin Ze is, the more loyal Wu Fan and others will be as subordinates.

......

When receiving Chen Ping's urgent letter, Lin Ze and his party rushed to the mountain city, and it was expected that they would not be able to enter the territory of Shu in two days.

After reading the letter, Lin Ze said to the messenger who sent the letter: "Bring a message to Admiral Chen for this official, tell him to let him try to keep the stability of Shu as much as possible, and deal with other difficult matters when the official returns." ”

After the messenger wrote down this passage, he hurried back to Shudu without stopping.

Five days later, Chen Ping took the officials of the Governor's Mansion to welcome Lin Ze's return outside the city of Shu.

After taking the lead in saluting, Chen Ping said with a ashamed face: "The nephew has been entrusted by his uncle, which has caused heavy losses in Shudi, and he also asks his uncle to punish him." ”

Lin Ze's face remained unchanged, and he said indifferently: "What's the matter, let's talk about it when I go back, this court is public, what do you say like this?"

After speaking, Lin Ze no longer paid attention to Chen Ping and led the way to the city.

Chen Ping followed behind him with a gloomy face, very depressed, it seems that Uncle Shi is very disappointed in my [31 update fast] this time, he can't even do the things that are done, how can he plan to make progress in the future?

After returning to the Governor's Mansion, the first thing Lin Ze did was to move all the jade stones to his secret room, and then convene everyone in the Governor's Mansion to discuss the matter.

Lin Ze sat on the throne and said in a deep voice: "Who told this official what happened in Shu and what is the current situation? ”

Chen Ping stood up and bowed and saluted: "Lord Hui, the barbarian captives rebelled and plagued Shudi, according to the news from the Intelligence Department, at least 300,000 civilians have left their homes due to the barbarian rebellion, more than 30,000 innocent people have died tragically, and the land of hundreds of miles is desolate. ”

"After the incident, the Governor's Mansion reacted quickly and quelled the rebellion in time, and the 300,000 barbarians, except for 50,000 recalcitrant ones who were killed, surrendered again and were locked up outside the Shu capital city and guarded by the army. ”

"There are three biggest problems now: one is the lack of grain in Shu, 300,000 barbarians were originally for our side to take care of millions of acres of fertile land, after the rebellion, resulting in a poor harvest in the fields, although the lower officials organized personnel to rush to harvest, the final harvest of grain and rice is less than one-fifth, so there is a shortage of grain. ”

"On both sides, there are not enough people to cultivate millions of acres of fertile land, and they are about to face the risk of being barren, and I am afraid that the coming year will be even more difficult. ”

"Of the three, what will happen to the remaining 250,000 barbarian captives? ”

"Please make a decision on all of the above. ”

After hearing this, Lin Ze said indifferently: "Are there any other questions about these questions?"

Not only Chen Ping, but everyone else in the hall was stunned, isn't this problem serious enough? I have to say, just looking at this Lord Lin's bearing, it is extraordinary.

Lin Ze looked around for a week, and when he saw that no one answered, he slowly spoke: "Since there are no other problems for the time being, this official will solve these first." ”

"First, send a letter to the Governor and General Han, telling them that regardless of the outcome of the battle, they will temporarily withdraw their troops and let the soldiers return to Shudu. The letter was written by the official, and we will send another half a month's ration over, and we will not send it, let them watch it. ”

"In this way, the consumption of food will be drastically reduced, and then the official will go to the Ba's house and borrow food, as long as he spends this time. What do you think?"

Everyone looked at each other, using the food shortage as an excuse to threaten Gongzi Hu Hai and General Han Xin to withdraw from the army, this kind of thing is estimated to be something you can do, or only the military advisor has the courage and courage to do it.

Then they replied in unison: "My lord is wise, and the lower officials have no objections." ”

After Lin Ze saw that everyone had no objections, he continued: "As for the millions of acres of fertile land, after the army returns, won't there be people who will cultivate it?"

"In order to conscript the barbarians before, they recruited troops on a large scale, but now that the barbarians are about to be wiped out, they naturally want to be rewarded for their merits and deeds, and they will return to the field. ”

"This official intends to use 50,000 of them to settle the fields, and each person will divide 20 acres of land, and the governor's palace will be responsible for producing seeds and guiding cultivation, and the final harvest will be fifty-fifty cents, what do you think?"

No matter what others thought, Xu Gao's eyes lit up and said, "In this way, all these million acres of land are decided by Sang Nongsi?"

Lin Ze nodded: "In this matter, Lord Xu's Sang Nong Division will definitely not be able to run away, for fear of exhausting Lord Xu." ”

Who knew that Xu Gao didn't care and said: "My lord, don't worry, there are millions of acres of fertile land, and the lower officials will have an excuse to apply for assistance from the giant, and the giant will definitely be moved after hearing it, and send disciples and elders to help." Please rest assured, as long as I give my peasant disciples enough trust, I will keep it for a good harvest. ”

Lin Ze smiled slightly: "As long as the children of the peasant family are willing to help, the official will naturally make it clear to the prince and treat him with the kindness of a high-ranking official." As for what the farmer does, the official doesn't care, the million fertile land will be handed over to you, and the official will only look at the results. ”

Xu Gao immediately stood up and saluted, "Thank you for your trust." ”

Lin Ze said with a relaxed smile on his face: "How, so that the two problems will be solved." The matter of the barbarians, the official has already had a belly case, whether it can be done or not, the official is not sure, those people, just hang a bowl of porridge every day. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Ze said with murderous intent on his face: "The soldiers who are ordered to take care of it, but there are troublemakers, so don't count as killing." ”

"Okay, you guys step back first, Chen Ping stays, this official still has something to tell you. ”

Everyone glanced at Chen Ping sympathetically.
