Next, after a victory celebration, the Allied forces also began to prepare for evacuation.
At this time, Yang Qing'an had already arrived here after a long journey. After arriving, he naturally asked to see Xiao Yuan first.
The position of a county chief is not low, so this dialogue between the king and his ministers is inevitable.
In the hall, there was also Zhou Ce who was invited by Xiao Yuan. Now Anjun, after some turmoil and reorganization, has only more than 30,000 people.
Seeing Xiao Yuan, the two of them hurriedly saluted. The latter motioned for peace, stood up, and said with a gentle smile: "From today on, the two of you will be working together in Anyang to handle important military and political affairs. Let's get to know each other first."
As he spoke, he also began to extend his hand and introduce:
"This is Mr. Yang Qingan Yang."
"Zhou Ce, General Zhou."
The two of them naturally faced each other and bowed their hands.
"I've met Mr. Yang."
"General Zhou is polite."
After the two of them got to know each other, Xiao Yuan continued: "In Anyang in the future, the two of you will need to work together to govern the place. General Zhou, after returning, must immediately eliminate the old system of Anjun and use Qinjun instead." Establishment, and your duty is to guard the border, no matter what the circumstances, what happened before can not happen again!"
"Yes! I understand, your Majesty, please rest assured." Zhou Ce had already changed his mind, and he was undoubtedly excited.
Xiao Yuan looked at Yang Qing'an again: "The people of Anyang, exploited by Yu Anmin for many years, are generally poor and have little food for the night. Mr. Yang, after you take office, you have a heavy responsibility. The first priority is to abolish everything that was done before Yu Anmin." Harsh government, take care of local people's livelihood, implement Qin government, and at the same time strictly enforce Qin law."
"Don't think about political achievements first, improve people's livelihood. If people's livelihood is improved, political achievements will naturally come. The most important thing in Anyang is the country."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Qing'an immediately returned with a straight face: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will be diligent and diligent after taking office and live up to your Majesty's trust."
Xiao Yuan nodded and said: "From now on, in terms of military affairs in Anyang, Mr. Yang must promptly deliver military supplies and military expenditures, as well as grain, grass and weapons for the army to be stationed for a long time."
"In terms of government affairs, if there is a need for military cooperation, General Zhou must also cooperate immediately. The county guard also has certain mobilization rights over your troops."
"Be an official, be a good official, and I will listen to your promise."
"I would like to follow your Majesty's teachings." The two said at the same time.
After this conversation, when he came out of the hall, Zhou Ce took the lead and said: "Anyang is governed by Qin, which is what the people expect. Mr. Yang, please take care of me in the future."
"What the general said, just like what the king said, you and I should work together to govern Anyang well..."
Xiao Yuan's original intention was to disband the remaining 30,000-plus troops on the spot, but after much deliberation, he was unable to mobilize other troops to garrison in Anyang for a while, so in the end, he could only recruit them.
After handling these matters, he was also ready to return to the court.
On this day, Zhenyang South Pass.
At this time, the Spirit King had already said hello and left with a large amount of gold and silver.
Xiao Yuan and King Xuan made a special trip to Yan Zheng's tomb to pay homage before leaving.
There were many people at the scene, not only the generals of Qin and Xuan, but also several representatives of Zhenyang people, the kind of people who had a high reputation in the local area.
This cemetery was built temporarily after the war. It is not luxurious. It is just a simple earthen bag. The monument only says "Yan Zheng's tomb".
Xiao Yuan was at the front of the crowd, unfurling his sleeves and robe, bowing his hands, bending down and bowing deeply to Yan Zheng's tomb.
Following his movements, so did everyone present.
After straightening up, he picked up the bronze cup and sprinkled the strong wine in the cup in front of the tomb. "General, have a good journey, your heroic soul will always be there."
After he finished doing this, he sighed softly and said, "Serve the country with one's own life and die without regrets. Are these his last words?"
"Yes." Someone returned.
"He is a true hero. Facing hundreds of thousands of troops and five thousand soldiers, not one of them took a step back. They all died in battle..."
As soon as these words were said, the people all began to cry in low voices with heavy hearts.
It can be said that Yan Zheng saved all the people in Zhenyang County with his own sacrifice. One can imagine how the people here feel about him.
After reminiscing, Xiao Yuan said: "After the Heroes' Temple is built, General Yan Zheng's tomb will be moved there and his last words will be engraved on his epitaph."
As he said that, he also looked at an old man: "The next thing will be left to you, the people of Zhenyang, and it must be done well."
The old man was still crying. After hearing this, he wiped his tears with his sleeves and said with choked sobs: "Don't worry, Your Highness, King Qin. We will work hard to build the temple. However, our king does not recognize General Yan Zheng." , what should we do if someone demolishes the temple?"
"He dares!" Xiao Yuan's voice turned cold and said: "Liehou is a title granted by the emperor and is recognized by the people of the world. If he, King Huan, dares to do anything extraordinary, he will be against the world!"
"Yes, yes, thank you His Highness King Qin for making the decision for the general, otherwise, the general will die with his eyes closed." The old man continued to cry.
"A general with outstanding merits, his military exploits cannot be erased by anyone."
Xiao Yuan said something, then looked up at the surrounding environment, "Let's go..."
Then, the mighty team began to set off.
Countless men with black armor and red tassels, and Xuan Army soldiers, formed two long queues, with no end in sight.
During the march, there was no talking all the way. After more than half a month, the team arrived in the Yiyang area. At this time, Xiao Yuan needed to go left to enter Shanyuguan, and King Xuan needed to go back to the country.
Before parting, the two kings naturally said goodbye to each other and cherished each other.
It's winter now, the weather is cold, and the north wind is howling like a knife.
Before King Xuan could say anything, Xiao Yuan saw that she was wearing thin clothes and had already taken off his coat and put it on her body.
His coat was a kind of plush brocade, which was very warm. King Xuan's heart was also warm. Seeing him standing in front of him, lowering his head slightly and tying the collar carefully, he couldn't help shouting: "Brother Wang..."
"Huh?" Xiao Yuan tied up his coat and said with a gentle smile: "It's cold, don't catch a cold."
Perhaps it was the impending separation, or perhaps it was the coat, but there were obvious mood swings in King Xuan's beautiful eyes.
She wrapped Xiao Yuan's coat and stood in front of him, her eyes flickered, her red lips moved, and she said quietly after a while:
"Brother Wang, this is our farewell. I don't know when we will see each other again."
Xiao Yuan did not speak, but gently held her in his arms.
King Xuan didn't struggle and leaned gently on his shoulder, as if whispering: "Take care."
