Chapter 48 Xun Yu's Contribution

Xun Yu said, "I heard that Fang Bo was still persuading the Prime Minister of Chen State, but Yingyin is still a distance away from the western border of the county. If Dong Zhuo's army comes again to plunder and burn and kill it, I am afraid that General Wu Meng will not be able to support him."

"I have already said it just now, and have supported hundreds of elite soldiers to Lun and Yangcheng two cities, right?" said the prefect of Yingchuan.

"The soldiers under Dong Zhuo's command are more than 100,000. How can the soldiers under a few hundred county soldiers be blocked?" Xun Yu said.

"We have recruited troops a few days ago. There are more than 4,000 county soldiers in Yangdi. If there is any difficulty in the west of the county, isn't it enough to rescue them?" Yingchuan prefect retorted.

Xun Yu said without thinking: "It's not enough. The Ming Mansion did not see tens of thousands of Kanto coalition troops, and he still dared not say that he could break through Dong Zhuohu! If the Dong army could be resisted by our county soldiers so easily, how could the affairs of more than ten coalition troops come from?" It was quite condemned.

"this……."

While he was talking, a county official came to report: "Mingfu, the county sergeant and civilians were looking for a visit outside."

When the prefect of Yingchuan heard this, he was overjoyed and said to Xun Yu: "The scholars and people are looking for a meeting, but I must see you. You might as well go first. General Wen wants to fight against the rebellion with the joint forces of our county, so he might as well postpone it and discuss it later."

Xun Yu refused to leave, saying, "Ming Mansion would like to see the scholars and the people first."

The prefect of Yingchuan had no choice but to let him stay in the hall and ordered the county officials who came to report to summon the scholars and citizens to come in to see him.

Soon, dozens of people rushed out of the courtyard.

The prefect of Yingchuan looked at it and saw the leaders' people, and his heart suddenly jumped.

The prefect of Yingchuan knew that it was wrong, and without waiting for these people to say it, he guessed the purpose of these people.

He forced himself to smile and asked, "You are here, but what happened to the county?"

The leader of the group spoke, "Great event!"

"What's the big deal?" the prefect of Yingchuan continued.

"Not long ago, Dong Zhuo's rebellious army robbed Yangcheng, which made the county people uneasy, and everyone was shocked. We have come here together today. It is because of the entrusted by the elders and villagers to ask the Ming Mansion to send troops to fight against the rebels. We want to protect the safety of the county." The leader said that the leader was not someone else, but the Gongcao King formation in the county, but he was a member of the radical faction, and was not a member of the Yingchuan Prefect. He was more celebrating the arrival of Wen Chou.

The prefect of Yingchuan was helpless and coughed twice before saying, "Didn't Dong Zhuojun retreat?" He responded to Xun Yu's words.

"Although I retreated for the time being, I don't know when I will come again. How can the county people not be worried? Is it not that I am worried about it day and night? Shouldn't the county people be content with the hearts of the county people?" Wang Zhen said.

"I have already handed over all the military affairs of the county and other countries to King Zhou. How to fight against An County? Why don't you discuss with King Zhou?" Yingchuan prefect waved his hand helplessly.

Although he was the prefect of Yingchuan, he had no prestige in the county. He had four major surnames in the county and county officials who had been entrenched here for a long time, which made him have no real power. And what he said about Zhou Jun, the commander of Yingchuan, is Zhou Lu! Like the king formation of Gongcao of the county, this Zhou Lu is also a more radical one. He admires the person who gallops in the battle formation.

Wang Zhen turned around and asked Zhou Luyan who was standing aside and said, "Zhongtong, what do you say?"

"General Wu Meng has led his troops to the county. I am about to ask the Ming Prefecture to spread the text and invite General Wu Meng to settle in Yangdi to help the county." Zhou Zhongtong said.

Wang Zhen and others were all very happy and bowed down together. They said to the prefect of Yingchuan: "The civil and military officials are famous for the prefectures and counties, and they are as powerful as the bandits in Heishan, and the army of Jizhou are all defeated by their troops. Such a reputation is enough to intimidate rebellion and to appease the county people. The Ming Dynasty, without delay, please immediately pass on the text and invite General Wu Meng to settle in Yangdi!"

“This, this….”

Looking at the dozens of people who were lying on the ground in front of him, including officials from the county government, scholars from the county, and generals from the county soldiers, the prefect of Yingchuan sighed dejectedly, and had to accept his fate and said powerlessly: "Okay, I'll write a letter to invite General Wen to settle in Yangdi."

Zhou Lu took the opportunity to say, "General Wu Meng is here, and there is a shortage of grain and equipment. Since the Ming Dynasty wanted to invite General Wu Meng to help me Yingchuan and fight against the foreign rebels, it is not a pity for this grain and equipment. The subordinate officials asked the Ming Dynasty to issue another article to open the treasury and get grain and equipment for general Wu Meng to eat."

The prefect of Yingchuan was stunned and said, "I'm afraid this... isn't it right?"

Zhou Lu asked, "What's wrong?"

"Bo Fang had sent me an edict to me, asking me to store more grain and equipment to prepare for the future of the state soldiers. Now that Fang Bo has not arrived, if he transfers grain and equipment to General Xun... Fang Bo is angry, what should he do?" The prefect of Yingchuan said angrily.

Wang Zhen raised his head and said loudly: "Fang Bo is far away in the State of Chen, and Dong Zhuo's army is outside the county. This is because the distant waters cannot relieve the near thirst! Mingfu is afraid of Fang Bo's anger. Isn't it afraid that the people of the county will cause any major chaos due to worry and horror?" From this, we can see that the deterrence of Yingchuan Prefect in Yingchuan is almost gone!

The prefect of Yingchuan had nothing to say, so he could only say, "Okay, okay, all Yingjun wait, all Yingjun wait."

He wrote a letter to Wen Chou, invited Wen Chou to settle in Yangdi, and wrote a letter to the county governor, ordered the treasury to be opened and grain and equipment were sent.

After receiving these two documents, Xun Yu and others left the house.

The prefect of Yingchuan sat in the hall for a long time, and the more he thought about it, he felt more and more frustrated. He slapped the table and said angrily: "The civil and military force forced me with their troops. The officials and other officials used their power to force me, and gave the food and equipment to the civil and military force. After Fang Bo arrived, he would definitely scold me. He was in a dilemma and had no way to advance and retreat. The prefect of Yingchuan was quit! Whoever you want to do it, you will do it!"

He said he would not do it, so he got up and returned to the back house. He immediately ordered his slaves to pack up their things, carried the wealth and family members he had obtained over the years, and left the house on the same day, and went home.

I have to say that the decision of the Yingchuan prefect was very wise.

Seeing that the chaos was about to begin, Wen Chou and Kong Qiong were stationed in two groups. He had no soldiers and the county officials and scholars did not stand on his side, which meant that the county had no pragmatic power. If he continued to stay in Yangdi, there was only one way to get angry on both sides. It would be better to take advantage of the war that had not officially begun and leave early and bring the money he had obtained over the years to home and enjoy the happiness.

Wang Zhen, Zhou Lu and others soon learned about the prefect of Yingchuan hanging seals and returning home, but they didn't care, and no one went to chase after him.

Everyone is a smart man, and everyone knows that when he fights Dong, the world will be in chaos. Instead of being the prefect of Yingchuan County, it is better to have the position of prefect to be a prefect so that those with virtue and ability will take over the power.

Wen Chou is about to arrive in Yangdi, and the grain and machinery in this county treasury are no longer necessary to be sent to Yingyin.

The king formation was left to take charge of the county government. Xun Yu and Zhou Lu took some county soldiers to Yingyin to invite Wen Chou to settle in. (To be continued, please search Piao Tianwen, the novel is better and faster!
