Three Kingdoms King of the North

Jushou, who was staying in Yecheng, calculated according to the distance, thinking that Han Zhan and the others would not arrive in Yecheng until the evening, so they did not arrange for people to greet them.The soldiers on duty at the top of the city saw the dust flying in the distance, and there seemed to be signs of a large cavalry coming, so they hurriedly reported to the guard Xia Houyun.

After Xiahouyun, who was patrolling the city, heard the report from the soldiers, although she didn't know that it was Han Sui and the others who had come, for the sake of safety, she decisively ordered the evacuation of the people near the city gate and closed the city gate urgently.

Han Zhan and Huang Zhong rode their horses to the vicinity of the city, and saw that the city gate in the distance had been closed and the suspension bridge had been suspended.Han Zhan couldn't help asking curiously: "It's not yet noon, why the city gate is closed, the suspension bridge is also suspended, and the city still looks like an enemy. What's going on?"

Huang Zhong set up an awning and looked in the direction of the city, then cautiously said to Han Zhan, "My lord, could it be that the city thought that there were enemy soldiers coming and took precautions?"

"Warning, what are they guarding against?" Han Zhan couldn't help being shocked after saying this casually, and then asked Huang Zhong: "Han Sheng, didn't you send someone to tell the Ju Supervisor about our return to the city in advance? ?”

Hearing what Han Zhan said, Huang Zhong shook his head, and then said puzzled, "I thought you sent someone to inform the Ju Supervisor Army, my lord."

After confirming that neither he nor Huang Zhong sent anyone to notify the city, Han Zhan finally understood that the people in the city must have regarded him as an invading enemy.He hurried forward with Huang Zhongce and came to the bank of the moat.Han Zhan looked up and saw that the city wall was covered with people, and all of them had drawn swords and bows, so he smiled and said to Huang Zhong who was beside him, "Han Sheng, let them open the city gate!"

Huang Zhong nodded, and then shouted towards the city wall: "Which general is on the city wall, quickly open the city gate, the lord is back!"

Xia Houyun on the tower stopped advancing when he saw cavalry from afar were still two arrows away from the city, and he started to mutter in his heart.Later, when she saw the two riders leaving the brigade and coming towards the city, she thought to herself: Why are there only two of them, are they here to persuade them to surrender?

Chapter 298

After Wei Xu was reprimanded by Han Zhan, although he confessed his guilt verbally, he was extremely unconvinced in his heart, saying that I was thinking of you, but in the end you not only didn't appreciate it, but also blamed me like this.I couldn't help feeling resentful towards Han Zhan in my heart, and thought to myself that when Zhang Liao and others came back, I would tell them the grievances I had suffered, and then persuade my brothers to leave Jizhou together.

Han Zhan didn't notice Wei Xu's strangeness, but continued to say to Jushou: "Ju Supervisor Army, I want to ask you, how about we welcome the saint to Yecheng now?"

Ju Shou thought for a while, and then said: "Returning to the lord, the palace has not been completed yet, and the military officials have never come to Yecheng. It would be too early to welcome the Holy Master to Yecheng at this time."

"What do you think?" Han Zhan asked modestly.

"After the completion of the palace, it would be best for the lord to come to Jizhou City in person to welcome the holy driver here." After Ju Shou said this, he might feel that there was still a shortage of manpower to build the palace, so he asked Han Zhan cautiously : "Dare to ask my lord, among the people who returned to Yecheng this time, how many young and middle-aged people are there?"

"The Marquis brought [-] people from Chang'an to the north," Han Zhan said to Jushou, "but after entering the area under the jurisdiction of the Marquis, he resettled the people along the way, and now there are only [-] people who come back to Yecheng with me. Most of them are women and children, and it might be inappropriate to let them build the palace."

Han Zhan originally thought that Ju Shou would have a disappointed expression on his face after listening to it, but the other party asked blankly, "Most of them are women and children?"

"That's right," Han Zhan nodded and said, "Women and children account for at least [-] of the [-] people."

"My lord, I have an idea." Ju Shou said to Han Zhan respectfully, "I don't know if I should say it or not?"

"Gongyu, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"I have heard people say that my lord intends to distribute land to these people after moving them from Chang'an. I wonder if there is such a thing?" After receiving Han Zhan's affirmative answer, he went on to say: "These women and children If you can’t carry it, even if you distribute the land to them, they won’t be able to cultivate it, and it will be easily abandoned. It’s better to let them help build the palace, which can also solve their own food and clothing problems.”

"Gongyu, didn't you just say that they can't carry their hands on their shoulders?" Han Zhan became more and more confused when he heard what Jushou said: "Then what can they do when they are on the construction site?"

"You can wash, cook, and sew for the migrant workers on the construction site." Seeing Han Zhan asking himself, Ju Shou quickly explained: "If possible, they can be married to those single migrant workers."

Han Zhan deeply agrees with Jushou's statement.He knew very well in his heart that after several turmoil in Chang'an, countless young and middle-aged people were killed and injured, and many orphans and widows were left behind. beautiful thing.

After a short thought, Han Zhan nodded slightly, and said to Jushou: "What you said is very true. I believe that the people who have benefited will be grateful to you."

In the evening, Huang Zhong escorted the people into Yecheng.On the one hand, Han Zhan asked Jushou to transfer women and children from the newly arrived people to help on the construction site of the palace; on the other hand, he sent people to Jizhou City to report to Han Xiandi about the rescue of Wu Baiguan.

Besides, it was Zhang He and Xun Yu who were staying in Jizhou City. The letter sent by Han Zhan had to go through the hands of the two to be sent to Han Xiandi.After reading the letter, Xun Yu said to Zhang He, "General Jun, it seems that my lord is going to welcome the holy driver to Yecheng."

After Zhang Yun finished listening, he asked curiously, "Why did Xun Changshi say that?"

Xun Yu raised the letter in Yang's hand, and said to Zhang Yun, "My lord has already defeated Li Jue and Guo Si, and rescued all the military officials who were trapped in the capital. In two months at most, these officials will be able to reach Ye. At that time, the palace built by Duke Ju and his supervisor will also be completed, and then the lord will be able to go to Jizhou to meet the holy driver and go to Yecheng."

Regarding Xun Yu's statement, Zhang He nodded after listening to it, and then asked back: "Xun Changshi, if Sheng Jia goes to Yecheng, will you and I stay in Jizhou City?"

"General Jun is one of the lord's strong generals, and he will definitely keep you by his side." Xun Yu analyzed to Zhang Yun, "If Xun's guess is correct, he may increase his position and stay here."

Hearing that Gao Lan might be here to replace him, Zhang Yun nodded and said, "Xun Changshi, according to the spies' report, Gongsun Zan seems to have signs of dispatching troops. If we are escorting Shengjia to Yecheng , he raised troops to attack, how should we deal with it?"

"That's a problem." Hearing what Zhang He said, Xun Yu couldn't help but frowned and thought.Even though Xun Yu was good at internal affairs, when it came to strategy, he was far inferior to his nephew Xun You, so after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with a plan that would balance both ends, so he could only say vaguely: "You and I might as well report this matter to the lord, and let the lord come out with a charter."
