Tomorrow, Anbei General Wang Shiping will arrive with his army. Fu Xi quickly reported the situation and showed Xun Lie's body. Wang Shiping said: "If Magistrate Fu could have stabilized the Khitans at that time and the army arrived, his military exploits would have been greater." Fu Xi had a sad face and didn't know what to say. Wang Shiping asked: "What gains did the Khitan people gain?" Fu Xi replied: "Ten injured horses were left behind." Wang Shiping sighed: "The Khitan people are cunning and show that they are not afraid of death, but in fact they are timid in a life-and-death fight. Fu Xi said: "I have learned a lesson." Wang Shiping said: "I will take all the soldiers from Wei County with me, even if the military service of Su and Wei counties this year is over." Fu Xi opened his mouth and dared not speak. After Wang Shiping had lunch, he led his troops and prisoners to Wei County.
In the county government office, Fu Xi took the report document written by Li Zhishi, the chief clerk, and read it carefully. The battle situation, results, Du Wenbai's meritorious service, etc. are written very thoughtfully. Fu Xi said: "Master Li is a good writer." Li Zhishi smiled and said: "Thank you for your praise." Fu Xi asked the county magistrate Gao Xiuwen: "What are the casualties?" Gao Xiuwen replied: "30 people died, 10 city defense troops, 20 warriors. 83 were seriously injured and 125 were slightly injured." Fu Xi asked: "Have the war dead been compensated?" Gao Xiuwen replied: "They have been compensated and the family is very stable." Fu Xi asked Cao Zuo and Liu Ben in the ceremony room : "Is there a memorial ceremony in the county for those who died in the war?" Liu Ben replied: "No." Fu Xiyan said: "This time during the Qingming Festival, the county government will hold a memorial ceremony. All family members will come, and the people can participate in the ceremony." Liu Ben replied: " I'll get it done right away." Fu Xi asked Hu Liangcai, the hospital's assistant, "How many are injured and in critical condition?" Hu Liangcai replied, "None yet. The trauma is fine and stable, but I'm afraid of death from infection." Fu Xi said, "Try your best. Right." Hu Liangcai replied. Fu Xi asked: "How many apprentices are there now?" Hu Liangcai replied: "There are 10 old apprentices. The last batch recruited 30 people, and this time we hired 30 more. It is generally enough." Fu Xi said well.
On Qingming Festival, Suxian County holds a public memorial ceremony for the war dead. At the cemetery outside the city, the deceased had been put into coffins and lined up in front of the cemetery. Liu Benn delivered a memorial speech, and everyone bowed in greeting. Liu Benn finally said loudly: "Send the hero to the grave." The musical instruments sounded, the strong men carried the coffin into the grave, the relatives cried together, and the onlookers all wept.
Anbei general Wang Shiping, under the guidance of Du Wenbai, found the Khitan crossing trail and set up camp with 500 men. He took the remaining people, prisoners, and collected supplies back to Su County, and asked Fu Xi to temporarily guard the county government affairs, organize officers to build a military fortress at the crossing, and provide all the needs of 500 people. Fu Xi had no choice but to agree. Wang Shiping led people and goods back to Beijing and returned with a full load. Du Wenbai went to the capital temporarily and was later released back to Suxian County. Wang Shiping was deeply moved by this incident.

On May 1st, the Suxian county government held a meeting. Du Wenbai has also returned to Suxian County and is now a military officer, responsible for the intelligence department. Fu Xi asked the official Zhao Caozuo: "What are the working regulations of each room now? How is the status of the people coming from Wei County?" Zhao Qidong replied: "The work responsibilities, work processes, and assessment systems of each room have been sorted out, and the operation of each room is very efficient. It's smooth and everyone is very fulfilled. The information of the officials and servants in each room has also been sorted out, and you can take a look at it." Zhao Qidong handed over the complete information. Fu Xi said good things. Zhao Qidong said: "The people from Wei County have adapted to our county's model and are able to do things." Fu Xiyan: "Tomorrow, you and I will go to Wei County and spend some time sorting it out." Zhao Qidong said that it was .
Fu Xi asked Liu Caozuo of the ceremonial room: "What's going on in the school?" Liu Ben replied: "There are 200 peasant children, who are smarter and older. They go to each room to study, and the rest go home to work in the fields. The children of the big families are in the city. You can study various subjects here or in the manor." Fu Xi said well.
Fuxi asked Wang Caozuo, the householder: "Is the money and food in the two counties enough?" Wang Houcai replied: "The monthly industrial and commercial tax in Su County is stable at 2,500 yuan, and the pig factory, oil press factory, loom factory, and oil press factory , commerce, the five major industries have matured. The county government has started to pay wages and grains at the same time, which is more conducive to commerce. There is no problem with grain in Suxian County, but there is some shortage in Wei County, which can be transferred." Fu Xi said: "Borrow. Wait for the county magistrate to make money. Return it." Everyone laughed.
Fuxi asked Zhao Si, Cao Zuo of the military room: "How about the spring conscription?" Zhao Si replied: "According to the master's plan, the 150 people who went to Wei County will not return to Su County. We will make up the Su County city defense force to 500 people, and the secret army will 100 people, training has begun. The recruits are well fed and drunk, and are practicing very vigorously." Fu Xi said well.
Fu Xi asked Xu Caozuo of the workshop: "Has the design plan of the fortress been finalized?" Xu Sanwei replied: "After the survey, I will come back and make a plan with everyone. First, the north wall will be built according to the mountain, and the other three sides will be temporarily transitioned with wooden fences. Go to the back and do it slowly. Other barracks, warehouses, living facilities, etc. will be built first." Fu Xi said: "Okay. The daily projects are mainly construction plants, and we will fight again in winter." Xu Sanwei said yes.
Fu Xi asked the farmhouse Liu Caozuo: "How about opening up wasteland?" Liu Sanwa replied: "In March, 1,025 peasants fleeing from famine came. After being screened by the official's office, they found that there were no other talents and they were only suitable for farming. I took them all to open up wasteland. At that time, a large number of tenant farmers also participated and opened up 50,000 acres of wasteland. Construction factories built adobe houses for farmers fleeing from famine. Large households provided food, and farmers fleeing from famine also contributed. Daily food was also provided by large households, and these people were the corresponding tenant farmers." Fu Xi Said: "As long as the people and the place are arranged, it will be fine."
Fu Xi asked the military officer Du Wenbai: "How do you think the internal affairs of Suxian County are now?" Du Wenbai replied: "Economy is about doing things, politics is about employing people. The master has done an excellent job." Fu Xi asked: "Is the intelligence system functioning normally?" Du Wenbai replied: "It is already operating normally. It consumes a lot of money and food. The iron business must be restored to operate well." Fu Xiyan: "Suxian County is capable of money matters. We will discuss the iron business in Wei County tomorrow. You can go too. ." Du Wen said in vain. Fu Xi asked: "What is the specific role of the intelligence system?" Du Wenbai replied: "The intelligence system must understand the strategic, diplomatic, military, political, economic, and intelligence systems of all places, especially the big forces." Fu Xi asked: "Can it be done?" Du Wenbai replied: "Build it bit by bit." Fu Xiyan: "Spend great efforts to collect business intelligence in various places to serve the economy. Talent information must also be collected, so that the intelligence system can make money first." Du Wenbai Call it yes. Fu Xiyan: "The strategic and military intelligence of Khitan, Jin and Hebei are related to our life and death, so we must work hard to collect it." Du Wenbai replied: "There is also King Xiang, I will do my best to collect it."
