The begging army left as soon as they were told, and broke camp and left the next day.
Xun Xiu was stunned, and quickly sent a large army to fill the gap they left, and then cursed angrily: "You are a profit-seeking person, and there is only profit in his eyes."
It was two days later when Zhao Hanzhang received the news. She was so angry that she crumbled the letter and slapped the table: "Xun Xiu is only interested in profit, can't his eyes see the long term?"
Ji Yuan only glanced at them and asked, "Young lady wants to keep them, but does she have food and grass?"
Zhao Hanzhang said: "Luoyang is facing the Xiongnu and Xianbei armies. How many troops does Mr. Ji think I need to leave here to be enough?"
"this……"
"This is a new force. The beggar army fights without risking their lives, and they are righteous. They only need a part of the food and grass to get a well-trained brave army for free. Why not?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "Luoyang is an empty city now.
No matter how many people come, we can accommodate them. They can take care of their families and supplement their household registrations to cultivate land. Why should we turn away such a good thing?"
Ji Yuan: "Is the girl rich?"
Zhao Hanzhang gritted his teeth, got up, went back to his room, took out a box and handed it to him.
Ji Yuan opened it and saw the two treasure maps inside. He closed them with a snap and asked subconsciously: "Did the girl steal it?"
Zhao Hanzhang: "...Am I that kind of person? This was given to me by my great-uncle."
"Besides, even if I want to steal, I won't steal the original. Ahem, I mean, it was obtained in the right way. Don't worry." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Take out all the things and send someone.
Go to Shu and Jiangling to buy grain, and I will take people to meet Shi Le for a while."
Ji Yuan also nodded, "If the girl cannot grab the property from Shi Le, it is better to go to Shangdang. Bingzhou suddenly lost Wang Mi and the defense is insufficient."
Zhao Hanzhang understood this and stood up immediately, "I'll order some troops right now."
Ji Yuan ran out after him and warned, "Take the eldest son and Erlang with you."
Zhao Hanzhang said: "Ting Han won't go. Luoyang needs him more than me. I'll take Erlang with me, and Xie Shi will stay too."
When Ji Yuan heard this, he was a little worried and hurriedly went to find Fu Tinghan, "The girl still needs a military advisor."
"Are you worried that she is not stable enough?"
Ji Yuan smiled at him, and Fu Tinghan said: "Don't worry, she knows how to weigh the pros and cons better than any of us. Although I want to follow, it is spring plowing time now, and there are indeed complicated things in Luoyang. General Beigong and Mi Ce
I was ordered to go to Xiangcheng and bring those 100,000 people back to Luoyang. I calculated the time and it will arrive in a few days. So many people need to be arranged. I'm afraid Mr. Ji won't be able to take care of them, so I'd better stay."
Two days ago, Zhao Hanzhang followed Xia Houyan up the mountain to visit Zhang Jingyang.
Zhang Jingyang also refused to go down the mountain. Especially after learning that the emperor had followed Gou Xi to move the capital, he became even more disheartened and felt very bad that day.
Zhao Hanzhang could only send someone down the mountain to find a good doctor to bring him up, and offered him a lot of good medicine, and left with regret.
But before leaving, she still asked for advice. If she moved the escaped Luoyang people back, how should she arrange these people so that they would stay in Luoyang willingly?
Zhang Jingyang said: "Be strict first and then relax. They have already escaped from Luoyang. They suffered heavy losses along the way, so even if Luoyang is their hometown, they will not be willing to come back."
"What's more, there has been a famine in Luoyang for two years, and now the emperor has moved the capital away. They will not even want to come back. If General Zhao wants to move people back, he cannot be lenient, but must give strict orders and directly ask them to return to Luoyang with strict government orders.
Ask them to farm," Zhang Jingyang said calmly: "When the situation is stable, then be gentle and win people's hearts."
Zhao Hanzhang understood, so after going down the mountain, he asked Bei Gongchun and Mi Ce to lead the army to drive the remaining people back.
The migration speed of the refugees is different from the march of the army. A hundred thousand people are dragging their feet, and the journey of two days can take seven or eight days, so people should arrive in five or six days.
They were forced to return, and Luoyang would definitely be in chaos by then. It was the time when talents were needed, so Zhao Hanzhang deliberately left Fu Tinghan and Xie Shi behind.
At the same time, he asked Ji Yuan to send people to find Zhao Kuan and Zhao Cheng along the way, "Look where they are, and don't let anyone kidnap them on the way."
Ji Yuan responded.
Zhao Hanzhang took Zhao Erlang and led the army towards Hedong County.
Ji Yuan and Fu Tinghan sent them off, looked down at the box in their hands, and couldn't help but sigh, "Fortunately, the old master left something behind, otherwise the girl would have taken such big steps..."
Seeing that he didn't continue, Li Tianhe asked: "What are you talking about?"
Fu Tinghan almost choked on his saliva.
Ji Yuan glanced at him angrily, "I've noticed that girls have always been arrogant in their speech recently, don't learn from you."
He said: "She is a girl, you should be more careful and don't say anything in front of her."
Li Tianhe lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "Yes."
Ji Yuan snorted, and then said: "Get two groups of soldiers, I have something to tell them to do."
One part of this treasure is hidden in Luoyang, and the other part is in Chang'an, so they have to go to Chang'an quietly to get it.
Just when Liu Yuan quietly sent people to dig for treasures and buy food, Shi Le was also counting the treasures collected this time.
Originally, this batch of things was to be sent back together with Wang Yan and others, but he was stopped by Chen Wu in Hedong County and couldn't get through. In a rage, he asked people to escort Wang Yan and others here.
He wanted to use Jin officials to force the begging army to retreat.
After all, half of the courtiers and scholar-bureaucrats in Luoyang are in his hands. Unfortunately, there is a group of mud-legged people on the opposite side. The few Jin ministers have been assimilated by the refugees in the years of war and begging. They don't care at all about Shi Le's hands.
of Jinchen.
If you want to kill, feel free to kill as long as they don't have the Jin Emperor in their hands.
They still hesitated to introduce the descendants of the royal family. The ministers and beggar soldiers who were not named Sima did not blink their eyes and watched Shi Le chop off people's heads for fun.
Seeing that Shi Le could not threaten them, the situation became deadlocked.
Yesterday, Shi Le received the news from Luoyang. He spent a day confirming the authenticity of the news and then knew that he would not be able to go to Luoyang.
The result of this military expedition was the batches of Jin ministers and scholar-bureaucrats, as well as the looted money.
He counted the gold and silver treasures and felt a little better, "It's not all a gain."
Seeing the imprisoned Jin ministers and scholar-bureaucrats, I felt even better, "It can be considered a meritorious service."
After thinking about it, he asked Wang Yan to come over and have a drink together, hoping to hear him talk about the situation in the world.
Wang Yan also lived up to his expectations and said: "Today, Shu is alone in peace, and the Jiangnan area has not yet been affected. The only person who can fight with the general, except Wang Mi and Yanzhou Gou Xi, is Yuzhou Zhao Hanzhang."
He said: "This person is menacing and very good at winning people's hearts. He also relies on the prestige left by his ancestors. Even if he is a woman, he still has a place in this troubled world."
"But the one who should be most wary is Liu Yuan," Wang Yan said: "Liu Yuan is so ambitious that he cannot see the general becoming powerful. Why doesn't the general become independent, proclaim himself emperor, recruit troops, and compete in the world?"
