In the early morning of the next day, a large ship slowly docked on the north bank of the Yellow River, and dozens of soldiers and boatmen on board cheered excitedly, they were the only surviving ships, and it took great difficulty to finally return to the north bank of the Yellow River.

More than 100 soldiers who had been waiting on the shore for a long time boarded the board and let the people on board to go ashore, when someone shouted: "The big man is here!" Everyone dodged away, only to see Wang Shi walking quickly with a solemn face.

One of the captains on the ship stepped forward and knelt down on one knee: "See the commander!" ”

"Who attacked you?"

Wang Shichong held back his anger and asked, "How are the other brothers doing now?" ”

"Returning to the commander, we don't know who attacked, but it is certain that hundreds of cavalry burned the ships with rockets, and we were caught off guard, most of the ships were burned, and as for the other brothers, we don't know very well, only that many brothers who fell into the water and swam ashore were arrested."

"Cavalry?"

Wang Shichong asked Cui Hongdan beside him suspiciously: "Is it Zhang Xuan's army?" ”

Cui Hongdan nodded, "It is very likely that it is Zhang Xuan's army, only Zhang Xuan has a cavalry of five hundred people in Qingzhou, although Pei Renji did not order the army to go north, but Pei Renji can't control Zhang Xuan's army." ”

Wang Shichong suddenly said angrily: "I didn't go to his Beihai, what did he do in Qi County?" ”

"The marshal is angry, now we need to find out the situation, since the ship has been destroyed, it is difficult for the more than 1,000 brothers who remained on the south bank to come back, what is their current situation? That's the key. ”

Wang Shichong thought of the thousand soldiers, he had to hold back his anger, turned back to his brother Wang Shiyun and said, "Please go to Beihai County and talk to Zhang Xuan to see how many of our brothers he has arrested, I hope he will release everyone." See what his attitude is. ”

Wang Shiyun hurriedly bowed and saluted, "I understand, let's leave for Beihai County!" ”

Wang Shiyun immediately took two entourages on a small passenger boat, and the boat headed for Beihai County, he did not dare to go to Qi County, but went directly to Qinghe County

Compared with the last time Zhang Xuan inspected the docks of Beihae County. The wharf has undergone great changes, first of all, five large warehouses made of bluestone have been completed, and the wharf has also been built with bluestone, which has been completed for more than three hundred steps, enough to dock several large ships.

At present, hundreds of craftsmen are working on the necessary military defenses and official offices, some well-informed merchants have preemptively bought land and begun to build shops, and not far away, an army of three hundred men has been stationed on the docks.

Wang Shiyun's ship has just docked. A group of patrol soldiers surrounded Wang Shiyun, "What person?" The soldiers asked viciously.

"I am the envoy of General Wang of Qinghe County, and I am ordered to visit General Zhang!"

The first lieutenant looked at Wang Shiyun and said coldly: "You are a step late, General Zhang just left an hour ago." ”

"Oh!"

Wang Shiyun was annoyed in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Where did General Zhang go?" ”

"It should be back to Linzi County, he was there all this time!"

"Can I go then?"

The first lieutenant looked at him for a moment, then turned around and ordered: "The first team brother sent him to Linzi County!" ”

At dusk. Wang Shiyun arrived in Linzi County under the close supervision of thirty soldiers.

Zhang Xuan had also arrived in Linzi County two hours earlier, when the county was almost full of refugees and migrants. A few days ago, there were only more than 10,000, and in just two days, the people of Qinghe County who fled from Qi County have exceeded 30,000.

The news that Zhang Xuan led the army to annihilate Wang Shichong's robber army and save the county in Linji County quickly spread throughout the counties of Qi County like wings, and all kinds of details were spread to the gods, and Zhang Xuan's thunderbolt attack and Pei Renji's weakness formed a sharp contrast.

Zhang Xuan has become the savior of the people of Qi County. More and more people who originally stayed in Qi County chose to move to Beihai County, Linzi County is the first county from Qi County, although the number of people who have fled has exceeded 30,000, but there are still a large number of people on the way to migrate.

Almost the entire Beihai County officials rushed to Linzi County and ascended the throne list. Arranging accommodation, providing food, etc., all kinds of things were so busy that the officials' feet did not touch the ground, and Zhang Xuan specially ordered Wei Chi Gong to lead 3,000 troops to rush to assist the officials in maintaining order.

In front of an ox cart that had just arrived, Jang Xuan was chatting with the owner of the ox cart, an elderly couple with their grandson, the ox cart was full of household items, but the child's parents did not come. ”

"Why didn't my father-in-law's son and daughter-in-law come?" Zhang Xuan asked with a smile.

"We have rented more than 100 acres of land in Qi County, and now they are busy farming, they want to wait for the summer harvest to come over, let's take a step first, general, can we rent land."

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, "Beihai County has enough land, it will be arranged one by one, you can rent the land of the government first, there is almost no rent in the first few years, there is no tax, and you can also raise some cattle and sheep, there is no problem in life." ”

"Then I'll be relieved, and I hope to settle down as soon as possible."

Zhang Xuan beckoned a practitioner to find him, and instructed him: "It's getting late, arrange a small single account for this pair of old people first, and then register tomorrow, so that they can take care of it!" ”

"General, please rest assured, your subordinates will definitely do it."

"Thank you, General!" The two old men saluted and thanked Jang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan waved his hand, turned around and walked towards a group of soldiers not far away, "What's the matter?" ”

A team member stepped forward and bowed and said, "General Qiyu, Wang Shichong sent someone to see the general." ”

It turned out that Wang Shichong sent someone here, Zhang Xuan glanced behind the soldiers, and vaguely saw Wang Shiyun's fat body in the twilight, Zhang Xuan walked forward quickly and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Wang Zhijun, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Wang Shiyun hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "General Zhang, here is for—"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Xuan interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "This is not the place to talk, please follow up the city!" ”

The two turned over and rode towards the county seat, and Wang Shiyun finally couldn't help asking, "General Zhang should have some of our soldiers in his hands, right?" ”

Zhang Xuan restrained the war horse, he looked at Wang Shiyun and said, "The king makes a decision first!" Shall we talk about it first, or will the king make the king go and see the people first? ”

Wang Shiyun pondered for a moment and said, "If it's convenient, I'll go and see people first." ”

Zhang Xuan beckoned, and Captain Chen Xu rushed forward, "Please give the general's orders!" He clenched his fists and saluted.

"You take this envoy to the prisoner of war camp first, and then bring him to see me later."

"Obey the order!"

Chen Xu waved his hand, "Please!" ”

Wang Shiyun broke out in a cold sweat on his back, it was actually called a prisoner of war camp, did they have a fierce battle?

He hurriedly arched his hand to Zhang Xuan, and followed Chen Xu to run away, Zhang Xuan looked at his back and went away, couldn't help but snort coldly, and urged the horse to go into the city

The so-called prisoner of war camp was located in the Sui army camp.

Soon after Wei Chigong led 3,000 troops to Linzi County, he built a military camp outside the county seat, of which the northwest corner of the military camp was divided into a temporary prisoner of war camp, surrounded by a huge fence, guarded by special personnel, and imprisoned more than 500 soldiers of Wang Shichong's Huainan Army, some of whom were captured by the attack fleet, and the other part was the soldiers led by the partial general Lang Ling.

Wang Shiyun was led into the Sui army camp and came directly to the prisoner of war camp.

Chen Xu instructed a soldier a few words, and then said to Wang Shiyun: "The king envoy invites you, please!" I won't go in, for someone will bring you there. ”

Wang Shiyun nodded silently, followed the guards into the prisoner of war camp, and waited in a large tent.

Only a moment later, Lang Ling, a partial general wearing a white middle coat, iron shackles on his feet, and shackles on his hands, was led in, he was listless, but when he saw Wang Shiyun, his eyes lit up, and he rushed forward and knelt at the table, "Changshi, help us!" ”

Wang Shiyun was also stunned, he didn't expect Lang Ling to become like this, what is the difference between this and the felons in prison?

"General Lang, tell me first, what happened?"

Lang Ling personally led the cavalry to Linyi County, annihilated 300 soldiers, and burned the ship and besieged them, and finally sighed and said: "We have been killed 800 people, and there are about 500 brothers who are imprisoned in the barracks with the lowly position, and it is estimated that Zhang Xuan is waiting for the long history to come." ”

Wang Shiyun's mood became extremely heavy, and he also realized that the reason why Zhang Xuan did not kill Lang Ling's army was to bargain with himself, but what could he promise Zhang Xuan? (To be continued......)
