In October, the warring troops escorted hundreds of thousands of prisoners from the grasslands in western Liaoning into the Han area. As the resettlement of a large number of projects was almost broken, it should be possible to build simple thatched huts and tents and plan a temporary camp before winter came, which would at least resist the cold wind of winter and prevent many people from dying.

Juyang, the Governor's Office.

The seven-year-old Gongsun Zheng hummed a little song he learned from his mother and came out of the Dongfang brother's room. The sun was shining brightly. He trotted across the corridor and hurriedly pushed away the maids around him, rushed through the crescent door, and went to the backyard. When he saw Jian Shuo, he shouted: "Manager Jian, have you seen my mother?"

When Jian Shuo pointed in one direction with a smile, the little figure ran over with his robe excitedly, stopped in front of his parents' door, his cheeks were slightly red, and he knocked on the door leaf repeatedly.

"Mom, open the door quickly."

Inside the door, footsteps came, and the door opened the next second, revealing Tingting's figure. "Why did the eldest son run away, my face turned red, are the people below being lazy... I really need discipline, I'll deal with them."

However, the little figure at the door ignored her and crossed the threshold and walked in. Opposite, Cai Yan was sitting at the dressing table embroidered with a round little tiger embroidered on his shoes. He turned his head and saw Zhenger coming over panting. He put down the shoes, turned around, took out a brocade handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat on his forehead.

"Running so urgently, the white wolf chases you and bites you again?"

"It's old, it can't run away..." The child raised his head and looked serious, and became more and more exactly like Gongsun Zhi. However, he seemed to realize that his words had gone off the wrong way, so he grabbed his mother's sleeve and said excitedly: "By the way, I just heard from Brother Dongfang that Dad is coming back, right?"

Cai Yan's eyes were with Cihe, and gently stroked his son's head: "Of course it's true. My mother also saw the news from Prince Li this morning. Your father should be happy to return from a great victory, but as the eldest son, you must not shout like this and lose your respect."

"I understand... Mom, you're going to talk again..." Zhenger was in a very good mood. In the past, when he saw his mother preaching, he would cover his ears and run away. At this time, he didn't leave, but he looked at the woman in front of him pitifully, "When will Dad come home? Zhenger misses him so much."

"Then you have to wait until the army returns to the camp and arrange the soldiers. Your father commands the three armies and naturally sets an example. Otherwise, the generals below will have complaints. Therefore, you must wait patiently at home and don't run around. If you are really bored, you can go to your aunt... She is also bored anyway."

Gongsun Zheng slightly slanted his face, raised his beautiful long eyebrows slightly, and hugged his arms: "I won't go, my aunt knows reading books, never play with me, forget it, you are all boring, I'll go to the door and wait for my father to come back."

The little man snorted and ran out. Xianglian was afraid that he would fall, so she followed him to the front yard. In the room, it became quiet. Cai Yan picked up the pair of shoes that he had made for him before. Yiran had no intention of getting up and walking under the eaves. The leaves in the courtyard had turned golden and birds were singing on the branches.

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

………

The leaves all over the mountain were in autumn. On the afternoon of October 16th, the figures of the army appeared one step earlier on the land of Shanggu County. The flag painted with giant white wolf was raised high in the air, making a sound, and thousands of cavalrymen were in series, winding, and on the high horizon, there were shocking dust rising among the yellow grass.

Under the white giant wolf flag, two thousand guards guards were guarding each other, with swords and bows in full, and the "Wolf King" surrounded by wolf velvet armor and scarlet cloak. After nearly two months of conquest, after returning for more than two months, he finally returned with hundreds of thousands of prisoners.

Boom boom boom boom.

It was still early. With the sound of horse hooves, a group of figures riding horses came to the army on the horizon ahead, without any weapons, armor, and the team was only fifty or sixty. Even the rangers ahead were too lazy to come over to interrogate. After taking a look from a distance, they turned around and left. If the enemy hit the cavalry in front of them, they would be purely seeking death.

Not long after, the front team guarding the wolf flag slowly slowed down in the voice of Li Ke raising his hand and "Stop!". Dozens of people running ahead also stopped ten feet away. The riding was Zou Dan and Sima Yi holding a painted halberd. The scholar in the middle dismounted first, walked towards him with a wide sleeve, and bowed down.

"Ru, pay homage to the governor!"

Behind him, Zou Dan and Sima Yi even dismounted, stood there and shouted in unison: "Congratulations to the governor for pacifying Liaodong. We will congratulate the governor for his triumphant congratulations."

"So it's the county magistrate... wait, I'll inform the leader." Li Ke said carelessly to the middle-aged scholar who was bowing, and then he tied the reins and turned around to the central army.

Sima Yi, who bowed, raised his face slightly and looked ahead. He was twenty years old and his figure became increasingly tall and strong. In the past few years, he had been practicing martial arts diligently and often went to his master for advice. He was in charge of official duties and was under the governor's rank, and after that, he was only appointed as the supervisor of the post because of his age. Later, he transferred the thief Cao Shishi to take charge of the arrest of thieves and thieves. Until last year, he served as the head of the palace gate and the position of guarding the government office. In his spare time, he also studied military books at night.

After his master Wenhou Lu Bu went to Jizhou to participate in the war, his mind of making achievements became more and more active. After learning about the news of the great victory in Liaodong, the three armies returned to the city and came to greet him with Li Ru, so that they could enter the eyes of Governor Gongsun and have the opportunity to lead troops to fight in the future.

Thoughts floated, and the sound of horse hooves in front of them was scattered. The four-row team slowly split a road. When Li Ru and others raised their heads, a black horse came out in their sight with a majestic pace, and a red cloak was waving. On the horse's back, Gongsun Zhi tied the reins.

Xilulu!

Horses whistle

The moving iron hooves stopped in front of everyone. Gongsun Zhi looked at Li Ru who had not seen for more than half a year, and had a smile on his face. He raised his cloak, took off his horse and strode over, and raised his hands at the other party: "Wenyou is working hard in the rear, so that the three armies have no worries outside. I should thank you! I have been bowed by Gongsun Zhi."

"It's not possible to do it, it's not possible to do it!" Li Ru hurriedly supported the figure beneath him, "Ru is responsible for doing things under the lord's command, and it's time to solve problems. The lord wants to thank him. You might as well invite him to have a glass of wine in the mansion another day."

He spent all his efforts in Shanggu County over the years and had never complained. Instead, he was much better than when he was under his father-in-law. There were not many people and rules here that restricted him. But sometimes he would have slight memories when he thought of the one-armed young man who worked side by side.

"Okay, this is what Wenyou said. I was going to get you promoted. Since I've been given a drink, that would be great... Haha!"

Li Ru was slightly stunned.

Opposite, Gongsun Zhi turned over the horse and said with a heroic voice: "Wenyou also got on the horse and went back side by side with me."

The other generals around him showed more or less envious expressions. Being able to walk side by side with the lord throughout history is the greatest trust and affirmation of this person, which has exceeded the scope of his confidant.

"Lord, please!" Although Li Ru was a scholar, he was quite as handsome as a hero. He rode his horse behind him and rode his horse side by side with Gongsun Zhi towards the city gate. However, while walking, he was still slightly behind by half a horse's head. After all, there were still other things for the monarch and his subjects.

As they moved forward, the rear team also set off again, following the two of them slowly and keeping a certain distance. At this time, the two were just talking about these things.

"This time the Liaodong victory, the number of Xianbei and Wuhuan people captured was huge, far exceeding the scale of the Heishan people moving to Shanggu County that day. The fields originally planned by the scholars have been arranged. Now, it is probably too difficult to resettle these people in a short period of time. It is better to reward one of them to the meritorious soldiers and select a group to build houses to save our own labor."

The horse team walked forward and walked onto the official road. The fields in the distance were golden colors. The breeze blew like waves and ripples. The farmers took the busy harvesting family and the children who were still not good at doing things, sat naughtyly on the ridge of the field and played with mud. The busy figures in the fields occasionally straightened their waists, allowing the wind to blow across the sweaty face, revealing a comfortable and refreshing. This is a season of harvest.

Gongsun looked at the busyness of the fields that spread far and near, and was silent for a while before he followed Li Ru's words: "Rewards are necessary. When I was a horse thief with my Gongsun Zhi, I never treated my brothers badly. I must not miss any of them. Then you can arrange it and find Cao Ang to take the credit card."

"...... Although there are many prisoners this time, they still have to be left to Shanggu County to fill the population, and they cannot be used to lock the Xiongnu and Xianbei. In a few years, more than ten years, and even the descendants of this group of people are completely Han people, enriching the frontiers and gradually reducing the alien races. This policy cannot be changed."

"On the way back, I also had an idea. In the future, these people who were incorporated into Chinese citizenship, gradually brought in all the Xianbei people who were good at Han Chinese and friendly to the Han people. Grassland tribes gradually decreased the number of grassland tribes and only maintained a certain number of people."

Li Ru looked at the outline of the city wall ahead, stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, as if he thought of the meaning inside, and laughed: "Lord, is slaughtering and slaughtering the Xianbei while raising...."

"It's almost the same." Gongsun Zhi did not look at him and looked ahead: "The alien races in the north are almost over. For the rest of the time, hurry up and absorb these prisoners and replenish the size of the wolf cavalry. This year, we can almost no longer fight. Next year, our attention should be on Yuan Shao's fat piece of meat."

Li Ru nodded: "Then there should be adjustments in the position."

"Of course, we need to adjust." The war horse walked forward a few steps and stopped. Gongsun Zhi turned his head to look at the scholar, "... Wenyou, you will be resigned from the county magistrate and promoted to the chief of the general's office in Zhenbei. Tian Guorang will be Sima. Wang Lie from Liaodong will be the one who takes over you. Then recalled Bingyuan from the grassland. This person still has the intention to become an official, and it is almost time to endure. As for Guan Ning, he should forget it. He is indifferent and being an official will only harm his life."

After his words paused, Gongsun Zhi turned slightly and looked at the young man holding a halberd who had been following behind him, "Zhongda, now several years have passed, can his martial arts improve?"

"Yi can accept the test of his lord at any time." Sima Yi, who was riding a brown horse, looked solemn, and rushed forward and bowed his hand and responded loudly.

Gongsun Zhi nodded to him, "Okay, next year, do you dare to lead troops to the war and be a vanguard?"

"It depends on the lord's order!"

"Then I'm waiting for you to make meritorious contributions. If you want to fight Zhenji, you must have achievements." Gongsun Zhi said this, his eyes swept over Pan Feng with his head raised and his chest raised, then moved away, and said to everyone: "The entire army will return to the camp, the horse will unload the saddle, the man will unload the armor, and the holiday will be three days, and reward the merits in three days."

The gentle wind brought the sound and spread in the vast sky. Rows of cavalry raised their heads and were solemn and excited, and then made roars, resounding throughout the fields, attracting the busy farmers in the surrounding countryside to raise their heads.

"Long live the lord"

It was almost dusk. The little man far away at the door of the mansion in the city sat on the threshold, closing his eyes in confusion, pecking his little head slightly down. Xianglian wanted to go over and pick him up. As soon as her footsteps passed, she was pushed away by the alert Zhenger: "Don't want you... go away, I'm going to wait for my dad to come back here."

Amid the screams, Cai Yan also walked out of the mansion. The sky outside gradually became darker. She came to find Zhenger back. When she heard the child's tantrums, she frowned and was about to pass by. When the sound of horse hooves sounded on the distant street, her slim figure just walked around the door. When Zhenger's voice suddenly shouted happily, "Dad!!" She jumped up from the threshold and ran forward.

The war horse stopped, Gongsun Zhi flipped off the horse and put the son who was rushing towards him in his hand, raised it over his head and turned around, which made the child laugh. After a while, he lowered his arm, hugged him in his arms, and then turned his head to look at the mansion.

Someone was watching him quietly at the mansion gate not far away.

"I wish you husband..." the woman said softly, rubbing her slightly red eyes.

“…Go back triumphantly.”

It was getting darker, and red lanterns hung in the whole mansion. The lights in the room were shaking, and the cheerful laughter of children came from the maid and servants. The faces of the maid and servant were busy nearby. When the backbone of the home came back, the whole mansion became warm.
