Guanghan County, Baishui County.
This site is the northernmost County of Guanghan County, bordering Hanzhong county.
After Zhang Lu led his troops into Baishui County, he didn't advance quickly. Instead of being impatient, he advanced steadily. Liu Xiu and Zhao Yun have already captured a county and launched a fierce attack, but Zhang Lu is still not arrogant and rash, and has not yet arrived at Baishui County.
At night, camp.
The big account of the Chinese army.
Zhang Lu, Yan Pu, Zhang Song and Yang Ren discussed business in the camp.
Zhang Lu looked at the people under his command and said: "just got the news, Liu Xiu has captured Yufu county without any blood. Moreover, Yufu county magistrate took the initiative to submit to this war. "
Yan Pu said: "in the past, Liu Xiu and Liu Zhang's army fought in Yufu County, but Liu Xiu's remaining power is still there. When he arrived in Yufu County, it was expected that the other side would voluntarily surrender. "
Yang Song hummed twice and said, "it's not worth mentioning. After all, Liu Xiu's army arrived."
Zhang Lu said: "not only that, but also the army led by Zhao Yun has broken Fuling county. Now Liu Xiu's two armies have taken root in Yizhou. "
Yang Song's face became embarrassed when he heard the speech.
I wanted to be ironic, but the other side did have enough achievements.
On the other hand, there is still no achievement along the way.
Yang Song looked at Zhang Lu, his face became solemn and said: "Shijun, now Liu xiudu's two armies have gained advantages. Under such circumstances, I'm afraid Yan Gongcao's plan is not appropriate. Otherwise, once Liu Xiu said that Shijun's march was not good, it would easily affect the relationship between the two sides. "
Yan Pu was not happy when he heard that.
Yang Song, villain!
Do you think Yang Song will consider the relationship between the two sides?
Zhang Lu looked at Yan Pu and said, "what do you think of Yan Gongcao?"
Yan Pu said: "Lord, I think it's better to maintain the current strategy for the time being and move forward steadily. We have already drawn a line with Liu Xiu. Under such circumstances, why do we have to work hard? "
After a pause, Yan Pu said: "at present, we are friends with Liu Xiu. Once we have captured Yizhou, our relationship with Liu Xiu will be complicated, not only as allies, but also as enemies. So now, when we can preserve our strength, we should try our best to preserve our strength instead of consuming it excessively. "
Zhang Lu nodded and said, "my master also agrees with Yan Gongcao's analysis. Let's postpone it for a while."
"But once Liu Xiu enters Chengdu first, it will be difficult for Liu Zhang to catch him," Yang Song said
Zhang Lu took a look at Yang Song and chuckled twice.
In fact, although Zhang Lu hated Liu Zhang to the bone, he was not in a hurry, or Zhang Lu had enough patience. Even if he can't win Liu Zhang this time, he has plenty of opportunities.
In front of Liu Xiu, Zhang Lu naturally has to disguise himself.
When Yang Song saw that Zhang Lu did not speak, he sighed and stopped talking. But Zhang Lu treated him like this, but Yang Song's dissatisfaction became more and more intense.
……
Quren county is adjacent to Yufu County, with a wide area.
In its territory, there are many mountains and jungles.
It's not easy to drive around in this kind of terrain.
Liu Xiu and his soldiers set out from Yufu county to Quren county. However, after three days' journey, they still didn't reach the county magistrate of Quren county. The distance is still very far away.
Liu Xiu's troops slowly approached, but he was not in a hurry.
At this time, the Quren county has set off waves. Because Liu Xiu directly captured Yufu County, which had a huge impact on Quren county.
As a result, Quren county people floating.
County Government!
County Magistrate Huang Quan looks worried, because these two days are bad news.
Huang Quan looked at the county magistrate sitting on one side and said, "Chengdu, is there any news?"
The county magistrate shook his head and said, "not yet!"
Huang Quan thought for a while and then asked, "to resist Liu Xiu's army, if we can't wait for Chengdu's army, we must be in a bitter battle. Now, you should try your best to stabilize prices, forbid merchants to hoard grain, forbid merchants to drive up prices. "
"Newspaper!"
Suddenly, a soldier came in outside the hall.
"My Lord, there is chaos in the city. Many businessmen have closed their doors, and even many people have to leave quren County," the soldier reported
Brush!
Huang Quan's face turned black.
"Newspaper!"
Another soldier came in flurried and reported: "my Lord, it's not good."
"What happened?" asked Huang Quan
The soldier cried and replied, "my Lord, some families in the city are united. They say that they want the county magistrate to obey Liu Xiu and conform to the times."
Huang Quan's face became very embarrassed. The news was just bad news.
The bad news came back one by one, which changed the face of the yellow spring."Newspaper!"
Suddenly, another soldier rushed in.
Huang Quan couldn't help it any more. He roared, "what's the breaking news again?"
The soldier said, "my Lord, I just got the urgent news from Chengdu. Mr. Zhou Mu has dispatched Wu Yi to lead 30000 troops to resist Liu Xiu. If a large army comes, we will have hope. "
"Hoo
After hearing this, the expression on Huang Quan's face was relieved.
At least, reinforcements are coming.
The county magistrate waved the soldiers back, but said, "my Lord, even if reinforcements come, it's far away from Chengdu to Quren county. Liu Xiu's army has entered Quren county. Now what we're facing is that once we can't solve the crisis before the army arrives, it's useless. Wu Yi came to resist Liu Xiu, not to Quren county. "
When Huang Quan heard the words, he could not help sighing.
The problem is very serious!
The expression of Huang Quan is dignified, but it is quite pondering.
"Newspaper!"
Suddenly, another soldier came in from the outside.
Huangquan is already wilting, can not lift what spirit, asked: "what news?"
The soldier replied, "my Lord, someone is asking for help outside the mansion. His name was Qian Tong, a businessman. He said that he has a way to solve the county magistrate's current dilemma. "
"Qian Tong? Businessmen. "
As soon as Huang Quan's brows are picked, he is now in trouble, and there is nothing he can do.
Now that someone is willing to help, he is very happy.
Huang Quan big sleeve a whisk, wave a hand way: "please!"
The soldiers went down to convey the order. Soon, a rich young man in a royal robe came in. Beside him, there was a handsome middle-aged man.
This rich man is Huo Jun.
The middle-aged man is Chen Dao, who plays Huo Jun's guard.
Huo Jun's big sleeves trembled, his long sleeves rolled in the air, like a cloud dancing. His chin rose slightly, and he said slightly arrogantly: "I've met the magistrate of Huang County in Qiantong."
With a smile, Huang Quan said, "Mr. Qian, please sit down."
Huo Jun sits down while Chen Dao stands behind him.
Huang Quan added: "listen to the soldiers, Mr. Qian has a way to solve the official's dilemma."
Huo Jun laughed and said: "I'm well-informed. I heard that Liu Xiu has come to attack Quren county. Now although Liu Yizhou has sent Wu Yi to rescue, the rescue troops are still some time away from their arrival. And this period of time, I am afraid, is exactly the most difficult time for Huang County. If it can be held back, Huangxian will make nature safe. If you can't stop it, you don't know life or death. "
Huang Quan said with a smile: "Mr. Qian has a bright eye. This is really the current predicament of my official. But I don't know how Mr. Qian plans to resolve the current crisis? "
Huo Jun said with a smile: "it's easy to resolve the crisis, but let's talk about the conditions first. If Huang Xianling is willing to agree, it will not be too late for us to talk about a solution. "
Huang Quan waved his hand and said, "please, sir."
Huo Jun didn't even think about it. He said directly, "my terms are very simple. But in the future, as long as we mark Qian's goods with Qian's name, they will all be tax-free and free."
Brush!
After hearing this, Huang Quan's face became solemn.
Duty free!
No money!
Such conditions can be called harsh. You know, the reason why a county has sufficient finance is that on the one hand, people pay money and grain, and more importantly, businessmen pay taxes.
Huang Quan looked at Huo Jun and said, "Sir, this is the lion's big mouth."
