Chapter 121: Reporting the Victory to the Capital

Almost everyone under the Iron Lion was wounded, Chen Yue's subordinates also suffered more than 20 casualties, so many wounded troops, plus the people in the city had just fled back, many of them were homeless because their houses were burned, and the whole city was in chaos, Chen Yue decided to stay in Fangshan County temporarily, one is to recuperate the injured subordinates, and then to settle the people in the city.

Dozens of officials and officials in the county government were sent out to assist in counting the population of the city and helping to resettle the people. There were all the food that was snatched away by the Mantars and those who couldn't eat, and Chen Yue ordered a big pot to be set up outside the county government to boil rice porridge for the people who couldn't eat. The materials that the people were robbed of were all in Chen Yue's hands, and this bit of silver and grain was just a drizzle.

However, this meal cannot be eaten in vain, and each household must send a man to follow behind the yacha, or help other families build houses, or clean up the ash and garbage full of cars, or repair the dilapidated city wall, anyway, in Chen Yue's hands, there is absolutely no unearned phenomenon. Not to mention that getting something for not working will help laziness, and it will also cause many people to be more greedy, after all, whether it is food or money, it was all captured by Chen Yue from the hands of the Manchu Tartars, but it was taken away from the people by the Manchus, and in the final analysis, they were all taken away by the people of the city.

This time he snatched back a large amount of materials from the hands of the Mantars, Chen Yue did not plan to return them all to the people from the beginning, not because he was greedy, but because he wanted to use this money to raise the army and recruit more troops. The prelude to the chaos in the world slowly opened, and Chen Yue only had more than 200 troops in his hands, which was not enough to do anything.

And even if Chen Yue wanted to return the money to the people, he couldn't return it, because he didn't know how much the Mantars had robbed from each of the people, and he couldn't be fair at all.

It was 150,000 taels of silver, more than 5,000 quintals of grain, silk and satin, cloth, salt, iron and wood, and all kinds of materials filled more than 30 carts, and the value of various materials snatched from Fangshan County amounted to more than 200,000 taels.

Of course, it is impossible for the people to rob all their things, first, the Manchu Tartars can't take them all, but since the Manchu Tartars want to take the people away as slaves, of course, they have to leave them a certain amount of food, clothing, and goods, so what they rob is valuable.

The family's money and belongings were robbed by the Mantars, and now they are in the hands of Chen Yue, there will definitely be people who are dissatisfied, thinking about how to get the silver back, this is simply certain, Chen Yue thought about how to face this situation.

"My lord, there are gentlemen from the county town who have come to visit!" said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and a personal guard came in to report.

"Let them wait in the side room!" Chen Yue commanded lightly. Since these people want to pull teeth out of their mouths, let's be cold to them first.

"Have you written the report for the capital?" Chen Yue asked.

This time the capture is so large, and the Xishan Town is combined, the captured Manchu Tartar heads reached as many as one hundred and twenty-eight levels, and recaptured Fangshan County, such a great achievement is really rare in recent years, just Chongzhen Dynasty, the Manchu Tartar battle captured more than Chen There are only a handful. Beheading, recovering lost territory, such a great achievement must naturally be known to the imperial court as soon as possible, so that the official can be promoted as soon as possible, and only then can the name and identity quickly expand the strength.

"It's already written, please take a look at it!" He Lu ran over and handed a fold to Chen Yue, he is now Chen Yue's subordinate, and he is naturally responsible for this kind of literary thing.

Chen Yue took the fold and looked at it, He Lu's writing is very strong, the writing is smooth and very organized, he is worthy of being a scholar who once had a reputation for showing talent, but the writing is too exaggerated, what Chen Yue personally led his subordinate soldiers to enter and exit seven times, killing all over the field with Tartar corpses and rivers of blood, what Chen Yue was mighty for a while, full of Tartar trembling, the whole article is an exaggerated writing style, full of praise for Chen Yue, and Chen Yue himself felt blushing.

"Some have passed, some have passed," Chen Yue said modestly with a slightly blushing face.

"Where have you been, isn't it true that you led the people of Xishan Town to resist the Manchu army, thwarted the Manchu offensive, and beheaded more than forty levels? Isn't it true that you personally led a large army to travel hundreds of miles, breaking through the Manchurian army and rescuing tens of thousands of fathers and elders? There is no exaggeration in the subordinates! ”

He Lu spread his hands and looked at Chen Yuedao with an innocent expression. The face was full of admiration for Chen Yue from the heart, and the sycophants were perfected to this extent.

Chen Yue blinked and looked at He Lu, and said in his heart I didn't have seven in and seven out, nor did I fight with the Manchu chief for three hundred rounds, and then beheaded him under the horse, are you sure you wrote a battle report and not a story?

......

While Chen Yue and He Lu were discussing how to report their battle exploits, in the wing room, three men in brocade clothes fidgeted.

"It's been half an hour, it's been cold for half an hour, this inspector is so big!" A gentleman wearing a melon skin hat shouted angrily.

"Brother Wu, don't be impatient, the inspector may be a little busy, let's wait a while." A square-faced gentleman next to him persuaded.

"Hmph, you shopkeeper Song can afford to wait, I can't afford to wait, I just returned to the city, and there are a lot of messy things at home." The gentleman surnamed Wu said angrily.

"You have a lot of things, who is not, my mountain goods shop is a mess, the guys don't know where to run, I have to do everything myself." The square-faced shopkeeper surnamed Song sighed.

"I don't think this inspection plans to return our things at all, so it's hanging us." The third gentleman spoke.

"Lao Hong is right, that's it." The gentleman surnamed Wu said.

Shopkeeper Song shook his head and stopped talking, he was originally begging others to return his things, what is there after being left to dry for a while, when is it, and you still put your squire's score!

"I don't have a cup of tea, even when Ma Xianling was here, he didn't treat me like this, I'm a dignified person, and I don't know what the background of this inspection is, so rude!" After waiting for another stick of incense, Wu Jinshen's anger became stronger and stronger, and he couldn't help but shout loudly.

"Master Wu is cautious!" Shopkeeper Song hurriedly whispered and quietly pointed to the door with his hand, where the two soldiers stood motionless like puppets.

"What am I afraid of, does he dare to raise someone to me?" Wu Jinshen lowered his voice, but his mouth was still stiff.

Time passed minute by minute, and even the shopkeeper Song, who was very good, couldn't sit still, Wu Jinshen had already stood up and scolded around the room, and it was already dark.

Finally, someone walked in and brought the news that the inspector had seen them.
