During the half-day stay in Yan County, Heifu not only let the prisoners who wanted to escape settle down through the "Fish Belly Danshu", but also took the time to go to the county seat, planning to meet his old boss, Du Xian, the former right lieutenant of An Lu, and now he is the right lieutenant of Yan County.

The pattern of Yan County is similar to that of Anlu County, but the area is more than three times larger, after all, more than 50 years ago, it was the capital of Chu State. The Jianghan area has always been Yan and Ying, and the right lieutenant of Yan County is only a little lower than the lieutenant of Jiangling County, and Du Xian was transferred here from Anlu County, which can be regarded as a high promotion.

The county lieutenant's office in Yan County is also much taller than An Lu, and after Heifu came here to explain his intentions, he was questioned by the guard at the door, and after the report, he said that the county lieutenant was working, and asked him to sit at the door and wait.

Du Xian didn't snub him, an old subordinate, and specially asked a lieutenant Shi to come out and sit with him.

"Du Jun often mentions the head of the Heifu Pavilion, saying that when you were in charge of Anlu County, you were the most capable among the pavilion chiefs in the county."

Wei Shi's name is Gongshi, and he was born in the local surname Gongshi, but he does not have the frame of the clan's children, and he talks to Heifu very kindly, and praises him from time to time.

"This is Du Jun's false praise, the reason why I can be the pavilion chief is because of Du Jun's appreciation. In the last time Du Jun captured the thief, he also let the thief go, and he is ashamed so far, how dare he call it capable? Fortunately, it did not affect Du Jun's performance evaluation, otherwise Heifu would not have been redeemed. ”

One of the two boasted, the other was modest, and after a while, Du Xian finally had free time, and the co-teacher led Heifu into the house to meet him.

As soon as Heifu entered the door, he bowed down and said, "I never thought that I would be able to meet the right lieutenant so soon, and the subordinates are really happy." ”

"Hef, hurry up." Du Xian's face was also smiling, but he was much thinner than when he was in An Lu, and his eye circles were also dark, and after the two of them sat down, he sighed with emotion:

"After coming to Yan County for more than a month, I deeply felt that without a capable subordinate like Heifu, it is really not easy to be a county lieutenant."

Du Xian first complained that Yan County was difficult to govern, although there were not as many fugitive thieves as An Lu, but most of the people and officials here were descendants of the nobles of the Chu State, so the implementation of the law was not in place, and the clan strength was stronger than An Lu, and his orders were sometimes difficult to execute.

Then, Du Xian mentioned the past again and confided that although in the eyes of others, he trusted Chen Baijiang the most when he was in Anlu, but the one he relied on the most was actually Heifu. His promotion is not unrelated to the two major cases of tomb robbery and looting and trafficking that Heifu has solved in a row.

Although the third murder case was not solved, because Heifu deliberately concealed the fact that Zhong Liwu was a spy of the Chu State, it did not attract enough attention from the county, and it was already past the time for promotion and performance appraisal at that time, and it did not affect Du Xian's career.

Heifu couldn't help but bow his head, but said in his heart: "That's why you and I can meet peacefully, if not, I will definitely have to eat behind closed doors......"

When he heard that Heifu was assigned by the county lieutenant Yunman to run this drudgery, Du Xian slapped the case with a gloomy face and said: "Communiqué personal vendetta, this Yunman is really hateful, I must impeach him to the county lieutenant!" ”

Then he asked Hefu with concern if he had encountered any prisoners fleeing on the way. How it was disposed of.

Heifu didn't have to be obscure, so he told the "Fish Belly Danshu" to deceive the prisoners to settle down, and Du Xian laughed when he heard it, saying that Heifu could come up with this kind of idea, although Qin Law was strict but not old-fashioned, Heifu could use his ingenuity to deal with problems that the law could not solve, which was worthy of appreciation.

"Although the prisoner is settled, there is still a long way to go to Nanyang, and the weather is cold, so it is better to be careful."

While talking, Du Xian seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked someone to take the wooden slip and write a letter.

"This time the conscription of prisoners and soldiers to the north is the intention of the king, Qin and Chu fought in Huaiyang, and there was a lack of people for grain and grass transportation. Therefore, not only Nanjun, but also Hanzhong County and Nanyang County are also among the recruits. The prisoners and soldiers of the three counties must gather in Fangcheng County, Nanyang County, and then be led by the county guard of Nanyang County and the county lieutenant of Fangcheng County. I have served in Nanyang County, and I have an old relationship with the lieutenant of Fangcheng County, and this letter, or it is a pity to help you get a good errand after you arrive in the army. ”

This was an unexpected joy, Heifu took it and took a look, but saw that the wooden slip said that Heifu was proficient in military affairs, good at training soldiers, and also covered Du Xian's private seal.

He hurriedly thanked him, although the Qin State has largely eliminated mountainism, but it can't put an end to human favors, some people recommend it and no one recommends it, the circumstances may be very different, this wooden slip can be regarded as a stepping stone after Heifu goes north!

While talking, Du Xian's official business came again, and Yan County's household registration was twice as large as that of An Lu, and correspondingly, there were many more things to be busy with, so Du Xian asked the co-teacher to send Heifu out of the city for him.

"The four hundred soldiers and prisoners of Yan County will also go north to serve, Gongshi, you take Heifu over, hand him over to Captain Zuo, and go on the road together tomorrow, and you can take care of ...... on the road."

……

Heifu went out of the official temple with the master, and when the two rode to the city gate, his eyes were attracted by the city wall on the side.

In order to save labor and materials, the "official temple" of many county towns in Qin State will be built in the northwest or northeast corner of the county, so that the use of the original existing city wall, only need to lead out two walls separately, and the "official temple" can be wrapped inside.

The "Guan Temple" in Yan County is in the northeast corner of the city, but Heifu noticed that the city wall here is much newer than the one on the side, and the color of the earthen wall is different from other places within hundreds of steps, it is a new yellow earthen wall, not like the others, it is the old red wall.

He pointed to the obviously newly built city wall and said, "This is probably the ...... that Wu Anjun broke the city when he attacked the city."

The co-teacher's expression was a little complicated: "Yes, this is the section of the city wall that attacked Yancheng when Wu'an Jun attacked Chu and soaked and collapsed. ”

It is said that more than 50 years ago, Nanjun was still the Wangji region of Chu State, the core hinterland, and no one would have thought that this place would suddenly be occupied by Qin State within a year......

The one who created this military miracle was Wu Anjun Bai Qi, when Qin and Chu were in a big war, Bai Qi only led tens of thousands of people to the east along the Han River, and the enemy broke into Chu unexpectedly.

The situation at that time was that the Qin army was alone and could only rely on food to the enemy. The Chu army fought on its own, claiming to hold a million halberds, and the support was endless.

However, the Qin people demolished the bridges, burned the ships, and cut off their own way back to show their confidence in fighting to the death. The Chu army had worries because of the war in the homeland, the nobles were greedy for life and afraid of death, and the soldiers only cared about their own families, and had no fighting spirit, so they could not resist the onslaught of the Qin warriors, so they were defeated and retreated.

With the cooperation of Sima Coo's division, Bai Qi led tens of thousands of Qin army commanders to drive straight into Yancheng, the capital of Chu at that time.

Yancheng was an important military town in Gongwei Yingdu, and the Chu people had already assembled heavy troops here in an attempt to prevent the Qin army from moving south.

Bai Qi took advantage of the favorable conditions that Yishui ran out of the long valley of the West Mountain and flowed to the southeast, built an embankment to store water at a hundred miles west of Yancheng, and built a long canal to Yancheng, and then opened a canal to irrigate the city, the northeast corner of Yancheng was soaked in the impact of the river, and it was soon damaged, and the water entered the city, so it was an abyss......

"After that battle, the entire Nanjun will belong to the Qin State."

The co-teacher smiled: "Wu Anjun is still there, mentioning his name can make Yancheng babies stop crying......"

"Yu Wei? I think it's the aftermath! ”

At this time, a young man with his hands in his arms happened to be standing on the edge of the city wall, and when he heard the words of the Gongshi, he was not only furious, but immediately came over to grab the Gongshi's horse, raised his head and whispered to him: "Uncle, have you forgotten that in the northeast corner of the city, the soldiers and civilians of Yancheng died with the water, hundreds of thousands of people!" The east of the city stinks! My surname Gong was also in that battle, and the whole clan was almost wiped out! ”

"Shut up! Of course I do, I don't need to be reminded! ”

The young man didn't choose to speak, and the co-teacher changed color, lowered his voice and rebuked angrily: "If you kid talk nonsense, you really want to kill the communist clan!" ”

He hurriedly turned around, and saw that Heifu was still behind, and looked at the city wall, as if he hadn't heard the conversation between the two, so he breathed a sigh of relief, glared at the young man, and shouted to Heifu instead: "Heifu Pavilion Chief, this is my nephew Gongao, I just made a small thief in October, and I also want to escort the soldiers to the north to serve, along the way, I hope that the Pavilion Chief will take care of him more!" ”
