morning.
The sun is hanging high in the sky, and the sunlight is gradually gaining power.
The spring cold is gradually gone and warmth is coming.
Jiang County.
The corpses after the two battles had long been cleared away and buried in mass graves. The blood stains had long been washed away by the rain. Only the traces of the battle left on the city walls have remained.
but.
This Jiangxian city was in the era of Chu State. Its walls were dilapidated and vulnerable. The new wall was built by Jin Huanshan and Zhang Bu. It is not only strong and tall, but also brand new.
Like a newborn baby, a little immature.
The traces of battles now covering the city walls made it more majestic.
As time goes by, great changes have taken place inside and outside Jiang County. Liu Zhixing's military meritorious field distribution system allocated half of the fields occupied by the Mongolians to meritorious soldiers.
The families of these soldiers migrated from the Beishanbao area to Jiang County, where they began to cultivate fields and sow seeds, waiting for the autumn harvest.
In addition, there were many people in Jiang County who either fled or resolutely resisted the Mongols and went to Beishan Fort. This group of people is also back.
This made Jiang County prosperous.
It’s not just Jiang County. There are also Dingxian and Yuanxian that have sucked away a lot of the population of the Nine Forts.
This makes sense.
Only county towns can create a living environment for more people. The land of Nine Forts has a population of hundreds of thousands, which is actually abnormal.
Anyway. Follow Jiang County to the city. After raising the flags of "Wu" and "Yanhan", it quickly stabilized.
Everything is going in the right direction.
Well done.
Of course, the prestige of being an official also increased.
Wu Nian's reputation in Jiang County continues to rise.
today. The peace in Jiang County was broken.
"Hey. Old Chen. What are you doing in such a hurry?" In the alley. A chubby young woman was holding a basket in her right hand, planning to go out to buy grain and oil. She couldn't help but be surprised when she saw Lao Chen next door hurriedly walking past her.
"Go and see General Fu Han." Old Chen stopped, with excitement on his face.
"General Fu Han?" The young woman was stunned for a moment.
"That's General Wu, the Tiger of Liaodong. After he captured Dingxian and Yuanxian, he returned to Jiangxian. The front troops have already entered the city. If we rush over now, we might still see people."
After that, Lao Chen ignored the young woman and hurriedly went south.
"I'll go take a look too." The young woman understood, and hurriedly picked up the basket and caught up with Old Chen. She could buy grain and oil later.
The face of General Fu Han is hard to see.
In the ceremony. The entire Liaodong is the homeland of Chu State.
Wu Nian was also the [Beishan Commander] of Chu State.
but.
Actually. This city, together with Yuanxian, Dingxian and Jiubao, the land in this area was essentially controlled by Wu Nian.
He had peace, prestige, and a powerful army.
A worthy ruler.
The so-called king.
The one who the people believe in is the king.
When Wu Nian rode his horse and walked under the banner of "Wu", surrounded by strong soldiers, he entered the city from the south of the city.
Either they greeted them sincerely, or they were just watching the excitement, and the streets were packed tightly. The soldiers had to separate into two rows and form a human wall to block the people.
Although Wu Nian is not a person with a flamboyant personality, at this moment.
He was riding a horse, looking at the crowded crowd, looking at the faces that were either respectful or awe-inspiring, and he felt quite proud in his heart.
"That's what a man should do."
Wu Nian still remembers when he was a small flag officer and paraded on horseback in Beishan Fort. At that time, Beishan Fort had a small population and everyone knew each other.
From time to time, he would stop and chat with a military acquaintance.
At this time, of course, it is impossible to talk about family matters.
Wu Nian was riding on a tall horse, with a smile on his face. From time to time, he nodded slightly at the people on both sides of the road, and then disappeared along the street from the eyes of groups of people, heading to the county government office.
"This is Wu Gong, the general who assisted the Han Dynasty. He is really strong and mighty. But it doesn't look like the Liaodong tiger. Look, he smiles so kindly."
"You don't understand this. A gentleman hides his weapons and waits for the moment. The Liaodong Tiger may only be a Liaodong Tiger when he goes to the battlefield. Now in the city, there is no need for him to show off the majesty of a tiger."
"makes sense."
"Not only is General Wu strong. All of his soldiers are powerful, red-faced, and full of energy. Moreover, the soldiers' armor rate is very high, and their weapons look sharp. It's such a powerful army. No wonder it can kill thousands of households in a formation. , the fight with the Meng Yuan soldiers was back and forth. With his protection, we can sit back and relax."
"Who says otherwise? Although the Meng Yuan people have been kind to our people in the past two years, they are actually vicious at heart. I heard that before Jin Huanshan died, he promised the Meng Yuan soldiers to massacre the city after the city was broken. The Meng Yuan people are just the Meng Yuan people, barbarians from the border areas. No matter how friendly they appear to be, it is just an illusion. On the inside they are vicious and vicious."
Although Wu Nian went further and further away, the people still lingered on and talked among themselves, not only about Wu Nian, the Liaodong tiger, but also about the tiger and wolf soldiers under the Liaodong tiger.
Others are talking about the current bureaucracy of the Han Dynasty General Office.
The fierce tigers of Liaodong are brave and bright, and they are talented in martial arts.
The generals and soldiers under his command are strong and brave.
The officials in the General's Office of Fuhan were also capable and honest.
During the short period of time when Wu Nian ruled Jiang County. The people felt very good, much better than under the rule of the Mongolians. Not to mention the previous rule of Chu State.
Although the enthusiasm and respect of the people of Jiang County are not as great as those of Beishan Fort.
But this time triumphant.
Wu Nian is also considered to be a prosperous person.
Wu Nian soon arrived in front of the county government office. Chief Shi Liu Zhixing and Sima Li Yong led the officials of the Fu Han General's Mansion and stood at the door to greet Wu Nian.
"General." They all bent towards Wu Nian and clasped their fists.
"Excuse me." Wu Nian smiled heartily, got on his horse vigorously, stepped forward to help Liu Zhixing and Li Yong, and then looked at them carefully. They all looked haggard.
With three new cities occupied, there are so many things to do and the workload is huge.
"Thank you for your hard work." Wu Nian said sincerely.
"General, your words are serious." Liu Zhixing shook his head and said.
"What did the general say? It's hard work for you to risk your life at the front. We are just at the rear, looking at official documents and arranging work. It's not hard work." Li Yong also shook his head and said to Wu Nian.
"No. The soldiers at the front who risk their lives are very important. Your work is also crucial. Only by cooperating with each other internally and externally can we capture the three counties. We have achieved our goal."
Wu Nian also shook his head and said seriously.
"Thank you all." Wu Nian took a step back, clasped his hands into fists, and solemnly saluted all the officials present.
The officials were surprised for a moment, and then hurriedly returned the courtesy.
After a while, Wu Nian asked the other officials to go down. He entered the county government office together with Liu Zhixing and Li Yong.
Wu Nian asked as he walked: "Where are the generals? I plan to summon the generals who are currently in Jiang County and hold a celebration banquet tonight."
"Celebrate celebrate."
