Han Shimou

It was too dark at night to walk.Wen Han suggested that these people leave Linhe tomorrow.These people understand the truth, and they don't rush this night after so many years.Later, these civilians who hadn't left surrounded Wen Han and chatted affectionately with the soldiers for a long time before they were willing to disperse and leave.

In the morning of tomorrow, Wen Han waited at the gate of the city with all the soldiers, busy from day to night, and finally sent away all the people who were about to leave.Wen Han and a group of soldiers were all out of breath. The people who left were too enthusiastic and there were too many people.For the past few days, Wen Han's mouth was stiff from laughing, his throat was hoarse and he couldn't speak.Others are in much the same situation.

After Wen Han and all the soldiers went back, it was already dark.Wen Han, Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun all now live in the residence of the magistrate of Linhe County.After they went back, they had a hasty dinner, rested for another hour, and came to the meeting hall.Wen Han slept for a while, and his energy improved a lot. He took the merit document from Xu Huang and read it.

Wen Han pursed his lips, watching for about half a stick of incense, Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun couldn't help but cast their gazes on Wen Han.After Wen Han read it, he closed the document and took a deep breath.

"This is what the merit document says. Our merits are hard to tell. Sending the battle report is too one-sided. We need to go back to Luoyang for a pilgrimage immediately and explain it in person, so we can reward each one."

"that's it?"

When Xu Huang heard this, his expression changed, and he asked again as if he couldn't believe it.

"that is it."

Wen Han frowned, feeling like he wanted to tear up the so-called merit document on the spot.

"How is that possible! As far as I know, Lu Fengxian has really become the commander of the soldiers and horses in Shuofang, Yunzhong, Wuyuan, and Dingxiang, and the official worship general! Even Zhang Wenyuan has been confused. The position of captain. How come it is hard to tell the credit when it comes to our side? It is simply nonsense! I can't accept it!"

"We sacrificed our lives and killed so many Qiang and Hu people! The Keba tribe who invaded, with [-]% of their troops, were all annihilated by us. Keba Wuyan and his son, and Keba Wuyan two Brother, dozens of Keba generals have heads to testify. There are nearly [-] heads of Qianghu Keba soldiers! These are all bloody evidence! The battle report is difficult to clear? Could it be that the head of the imperial military command officer, They don’t even know how to count, and they still don’t know the heads of Hu people and Han people!”

Guan Yu stood up abruptly, Danfeng's eyes flashed with a frightening brutal light.

"Okay. It turns out that this document requires us to go back to Luoyang and explain it face-to-face, so we can just do it. Just like Brother Yunchang, our record is all testified by bloody heads. Let's go I can't leave. It's just that... General Gao's official career has been implicated. If General Gao hadn't left Lu Fengxian's command, he should have been promoted at this time."

Gao Shun was listening to Wen Han's sincere tone without affectation, and he was very moved.Gao Shun's status is embarrassing, and he cast him halfway through a special channel. Wen Han only has the position of Sima, and at most he can only give Gao Shun the position of goalkeeper.And this time Gao Shun broke away from the Bingzhou Military Command midway, so many achievements were lost.

Even on Wenhan's side, due to the different military command, the management of military merit is strict, and Gao Shun's merit cannot be counted.Wen Han owes Gao Shun Xin a debt.But Gao Shun didn't seem to care too much about it, he stepped out from the side, with a resolute face, and said solemnly to Wen Han.

"Wen Sima, don't say that! What Wen Sima did, I, Gao Shun, saw it. Killing the Hu people, breaking into the Qiang Hu, and saving the Han people, which one is not a matter of great benevolence and righteousness! Being a pawn is enough, this official position is not what I value. Without benevolence and righteousness, no matter how high an official position is, it is useless!"

"It's really my good fortune to have General Gao as my brother and sister. General Gao is righteous, and the credit I owe you should be recorded. In the future, I will definitely return it to you in a fair and honest manner. Brother Yun Chang and Gong Ming, Don't worry, although we are all family members, I am fortunate to be your superior officer. If you follow me, I will be responsible to you. This credit, I will definitely not make you less Not a penny."

Guan Yu waved his hand and said while supporting Meixu while pacing.

"Brother Bufan, if you say this, then you are not like a family member. You are a general in the army, and you have made the most contributions. If you don't care, what do we care about? , is well known. I think, there must be a villain among them! If I find out, I will cut off their dog's head with a knife!"

Gao Shun shook his head and sighed in agreement with Guan Yu's statement.

"Hey... the villain is in charge. This time Wen Sima returns to Luoyang, he must be extremely careful, lest he will not get the credit and be plotted against by other villains instead. However, it is strange to say. Wen Sima belongs to Uncle He Guo Next, why did he..."

"I also find it strange. It is reasonable to say that I have made a lot of contributions. If I can take the position, firstly, it can increase the prestige of General He, secondly, increase his power, and thirdly, stimulate the enthusiasm of his subordinates. There are so many benefits. Why did General He do nothing and let this ridiculous merit document be issued? Could it be that he had some scruples or something...By the way, Gong Ming, who is the person who sent the document?"

When Wen Han asked, Xu Huang slapped his head as if thinking of something.

"Oh, that's right! This document of merit was sent by Governor Ding. Among them, before leaving, he also said that when Bufan returned to Luoyang, he would first go to Jinyang to get together with Governor Ding. As for this gathering What to gather, I also asked privately and gave a lot of gold and silver. But he was pushed back by that person, and I will know when it is said."

"Well...if that's the case. The Inspector Ding really knows something inside, and we must go to Jinyang and his party."

"However, Bufanru is already a month late. According to the current situation, if you delay the time, I'm afraid..."

"It doesn't matter. It's easy to defend against an arrow with an open gun, but it's hard to defend against an arrow in the dark. If we can learn something from Ding Shishi, we can deal with it when we go back to Luoyang."

Guan Yu nodded and said in agreement.

"Brother Bufan is right. At the very least, we need to know that He Fang Xiaoxiao did this little trick in secret. Besides, there is a reason for our late arrival. We have been wandering in this Qianghu territory this time, and we have saved so many Many Han people captured dozens of Qianghu tribes. These are all great achievements. Huh, it’s better to explain it in person, lest we make a battle report again. At that time, these great achievements were said as holy. I think those villains What kind of reason is there to say that this credit is hard to claim! The hundred thousand Han people who came back from the Qianghu are all ironclad evidence that they can speak!"

"Okay! This matter is decided here. We will go to Jinyang first, and then return to Luoyang. It is useless to think about other things. Those who should come will still come. However, I can probably guess a thing or two about those villains. We This group of people gathered together, they are all from poor families and have no big background. Originally, the imperial court sent us to the expedition, but it was planned by those wealthy eunuchs to kill people with a knife.

It's just that this plan to kill people with a knife failed, but we have made a lot of achievements. In the eyes of those wealthy eunuchs, this achievement must be extremely obtrusive.It would be strange if they didn't move.I don't know what advice Ding Cishi will have, and Ding Cishi belongs to General He, maybe General He has something to tell us. "

Wen Han slapped the armrest of the stool, stood up, and said slowly.The original anger and reluctance gradually subsided, returning to the usual flat expression determined to get things done.

Later, Wen Han asked Xu Huang about the training of the gun and shield soldiers.Xu Huang told Wen Han that after half a year, the formation of the gun and shield soldiers was half completed. Because of the high physical fitness requirements, only about 200 of the 1000 people under Xu Huang's command were qualified and were incorporated into the gun and shield soldiers.

After half a year of training with wooden shields, this thousand-man spear and shield soldiers gradually became familiar with the use of the shields.Wen Han praised a few words with satisfaction, and then Gao Shun asked about the training of his [-] soldiers. Xu Huang lamented that his military discipline was strict.

Xu Huang originally thought that Gao Shun's subordinates would not cooperate more or less because of his status as an outsider.Unexpectedly, Gao Shun's subordinates didn't need Xu Huang to take care of them at all, they practiced according to the training process set by Gao Shun in the past.It also saved Xu Huang a lot of thought, and he was able to concentrate on the training of his spear and shield soldier.

Now Wen Han's total force has reached 7000, Guan Yu led [-] Black Wind Riders, Xu Huang led [-] Spear Shield Soldiers and [-] Spear Soldiers, and Gao Shun's [-] Spear Soldiers .Among the three soldiers and horses, there is no doubt that the Black Wind Cavalry has the strongest combat effectiveness.

Immediately afterwards, Wen Han discussed with Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun about the evacuation of Linhe and the handover.Seventy to eighty percent of the grain and grass in the grain depot were distributed to the people who returned home. There was not much left, but it was enough to feed the entire army for half a month.On the way to Jinyang and then back to Luoyang, you can go to nearby counties to supply supplies, and the stomach problem has been solved.As for the handover, Xu Huang told Wen Han that Lu Bu had called people to urge him several times, and the soldiers and horses for the handover had been waiting in Hudao County for a long time.As long as a document is sent tonight, the soldiers and horses waiting in Hudao will arrive early tomorrow morning.

"Okay, Gongming, you will send someone to Hudao later. It is not too late, we will start preparations tonight, and we will set off for Jinyang immediately after the handover troops arrive tomorrow morning."

"Yes! Wen Sima!"

Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun saluted and received the order, and then left to rectify their troops.After the three of them left, Wen Han rubbed his sore temples, leaned on the stool, looked up at the ceiling, and sighed heavily.

"I complained about the grievances of the impoverished family in this world, and offended the rich and powerful. Are you really overthinking yourself?"

Wen Han muttered in a low voice, his tone was powerless and helpless...

After finishing speaking, Wen Han felt a little tired, and planned to close his eyes to rest for a while, but he didn't know that a sense of groggy came over his head, and it seemed that all the strength in Wen Han's body was taken away.Wen Han slept until dawn the next day.Seeing Wen Han sleeping on the stool, the fire leader who brought the breakfast lightly put the breakfast on the table and prepared to leave.Unexpectedly, there was still some movement, which woke Wenhan up.

As soon as Wen Han regained consciousness, he felt pain all over his body, and his entire spine seemed to be unable to straighten.Wen Han first smiled at the Huotoubing who delivered the breakfast, Huotoubing thought that he woke Wenhan up and disturbed his sleep, and apologized to Wenhan in some panic.Wen Han smiled and waved his hand to indicate that it's okay.With a smile, he said a few words to Huotoubing, and then told him to leave.
