MTL - Wei and Jin Cooks-Chapter 743 bustling up

  Chapter 743 Prosperous

  Jingzhou has a vast territory, a strong military force, fertile water and soil, and rich mineral resources. It is currently a relatively stable and wealthy state in Kyushu.

  It is just under Yuzhou, with Yangzhou in the east and Liangzhou in the west.

   How important is it? Wang Yan’s cunning rabbit cave, one of the escape routes for the Wang family is Jingzhou, so the current governor of Jingzhou is Wang Yan’s younger brother Wang Cheng.

  However, the local wealthy people in Jingzhou are powerful, and Wang Cheng is not a capable person, so he cannot completely control Jingzhou.

Chu Kang also looked down on Wang Cheng, so when Zhao Hanzhang asked why he didn't write the letter through the governor of Jingzhou, but ran all the way here to stop her, he said disdainfully: "Wang Pingzi is worthy to write a letter for me? "

  That's what he said, but Zhao Hanzhang still saw the resentment in his disdain. Obviously, he disdained to let Wang Cheng write the letter, and Wang Cheng probably wouldn't write the letter for him.

   She cleverly didn't ask again, and changed the topic: "Mr. Chu, are there many people who are as worried about the resumption of war in Yanzhou and Yuzhou as you are?"

  Chu Kang said without thinking: "A lot!"

He paused and then sighed: "It took only three years for Inspector Zhao to pacify Yuzhou and regain Sizhou. The two tax levies were specially reduced or exempted. Anyone with a heart in the world can see that Inspector Zhao has a heart for the people." People, since this is the case, you should know that the people are war-weary."

"If it is to regain the homeland, I will naturally support it, but if I want to learn how to fight among the Jin Dynasty, when will I stop?" Chu Kang said, the king of the East China Sea is dead, and so many clans have died. Xi and Zhao Hanzhang are in power, everyone should cooperate well, first take back the homeland, beat out the barbarians, wait for the common people to breathe a sigh of relief, and then they will fight like Cao Wei and Liu Shu, whoever wins will take over the world .

   Now that the external chaos is not settled, they should stop fighting.

   During his study tour, Chu Kang saw the cities and villages after the Huns ravaged them.

One village after another was burned down, looted, and corpses were strewn all over the field. He could imagine that if Zhao Hanzhang and Gou Xi fought, and both sides would be hurt, Liu Yuan would definitely send his troops south, and Jingzhou would not be alone .

   In the past two years, tens of thousands of gentry from the north, and tens of thousands moved south, and finally less than a thousand people survived to Jingzhou and Yangzhou. If Jingzhou was also captured by the Huns, where would his family go?

  So when Chu Kang came to stop Zhao Hanzhang, he said it was for the sake of the country, but in fact, it was not for the sake of Xiaojia?

  If the state of Jin perishes in the presence of a strong enemy from the Huns, no one will be able to keep their small family.

  Chu Kang persuaded Zhao Hanzhang earnestly, asking her to quickly find a way to persuade Wang Jun and Liu Kun, and say something well, don't call back and forth, it really **** off Gou Xi, he didn't believe they could stop Gou Xi's army.

  Zhao Hanzhang repeatedly agreed, and promised to write letters to Jizhou and Yanzhou respectively when he returned to Luoyang, and then he would invite Chu Kang to visit him for details on how to stop the war.

The two returned to Luoyang together. Before they reached the gate of the city, they saw a long queue in front of them. There was a pile of oxen and horse-drawn carts, and a soldier came out with a gong and beat them. The city is all turned to the side.”

  A soldier ran over from the city gate to inform that all the officials and staff in Luoyang had come to welcome the governor.

  Ji Yuan, Ming Yu, Zhao Kuan, Wang Siniang and others stood not far from the city gate to welcome them. Zhao Hanzhang raised the curtain and took a look, dumbfounded, "I have only been away for a few months, and our Luoyang is so prosperous?"

  Chu Kang didn't take it seriously and said: "They all want to come to see Governor Zhao."

   As soon as the voice fell, one of the people who lined up to the side of the road didn't pay attention, and the sheep who was watching ran out. The other party was so anxious that his face was red, and he quickly swung his whip to catch it, trying to drag it back into the line.

  But the sheep avoided it nimbly. The soldier walking at the front saw it and picked it up with his hands. The man stopped and looked at the soldier anxiously.

  The soldier took two steps forward, stuffed the sheep into his arms, and pushed him back unceremoniously, "Hurry up, hurry up, if you bump into the governor, we will stew the sheep!"

  The man hugged the sheep, immediately nodded in gratitude to Dade, and carried the sheep back to the side of the road.

  Zhao Hanzhang watched silently, and asked: "Is this also to see me?"

   Chu Kang glanced at it, coughed lightly and said, "Everyone is here, you can't just run for nothing with bare hands, just bring some goods if you can."

  Zhao Hanzhang's eyes brightened slightly, and he became more energetic, "This idea is good, Mr. Chu, and you are welcome to visit Luoyang more often in the future."

  Zhao Hanzhang knocked on the wall of the car and ordered: "Speed ​​up, only a thousand people, don't delay the people entering and leaving the city gate."

  The soldiers responded and sent orders, the army speeded up, and the carriage also moved forward, more than twice as fast as before.

The people queuing up to enter the city in front were a little chaotic, unable to dodge in time, the Zhao family army did not chase them away, and leaned to the side of the road, and the three people walking side by side turned into two people, even Zhao Hanzhang and his car walked out of the road with one wheel, pressing The newly emerged weeds and uneven clods rolled over.

  Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan had long experience. When the first bump hit, they immediately put their buttocks hard, stabilized their legs, and secretly grabbed the carriage.

  Chu Kang was unexpected, the whole person was bumped up and down with the carriage, and his soul was about to be bumped out.

When the carriage finally turned to the right road, Chu Kang's hairstyle was messed up. He leaned on the wall of the carriage and sat up in a bit of embarrassment. He parted his hair on both sides, and looked up at the other two people in the carriage, but Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan were on the left. Turning his head to the right, Qi Qi looked out the window, as if he didn't see his distress.

  Chu Kang: …

  Looking at the two people who were as stable as Mount Tai, he had some doubts that Zhao Hanzhang and the coachman were in collusion, just to see his jokes.

   But turning his head and looking at the people crowded into a pile to make way for them outside the window, Chu Kang dispelled his doubts again. He sighed: "I often heard that the Zhao family army has strict military discipline. Seeing you today, it is worthy of the name."

  If other troops entered the city, the people would have already disappeared, especially those with money and goods. How dare the soldiers see them?

In fact, there were also some people who ran away at the scene, but they turned their heads and ran for more than ten steps. Looking back, they saw many people queuing up to enter the city without moving. Instead, when they ran, the people behind immediately crowded up and took their original positions. , they hesitated and did not run far.

  Although he didn't run far, he still didn't dare to return to the right path, but hid in the woods and watched from a distance.

   Seeing Zhao Jiajun skipping over those caravans and cattle and sheep without squinting like this, he was stunned for a moment, "Didn't grab it?"

   "Don't tell us to donate military pay?"

   Huddled together to wait and see, the merchants who came to Luoyang for the first time after the city of Luoyang was broken were silent. Qiqi looked at Zhao Jiajun, focusing on the protected carriage in the team.

  Zhao Hanzhang should be in that carriage.
