The next morning, a large ship burned to death slowly stopped on the north bank of the Yellow River. Dozens of soldiers and boatmen on the boat cheered excitedly. They were the only surviving ships. They worked hard and finally returned to the north bank of the Yellow River.

More than a hundred soldiers who had been waiting on the shore boards to get on the boat and let the people on the boat land. At this time, someone shouted: "The Grand Marshal is here!" Everyone dodged away, and saw Wang Shiquan walking quickly with a serious face.

A leader on the ship stepped forward and knelt on one knee: "See the Grand Marshal!"

"Who attacked you?"

Wang Shichong asked with anger in his arms, "What's the situation of the other brothers now?"

"Reporting to the commander, we don't know who attacked it, but it is certain that hundreds of cavalry burned the ships with rockets. We caught us off guard and most of the ships were burned. As for the other brothers, we don't know very well, only that many brothers who fell into the water and swam ashore were arrested."

"cavalry?"

Wang Shichong asked Cui Hongdan beside him in confusion and said, "Is it Zhang Xuan's army?"

Choi Hongdan nodded, "It is very likely that it is Zhang Xuan's army. In Qingzhou, only Zhang Xuan has a cavalry of 500 people. Although Pei Renji did not order the army to go north, Pei Renji could not control Zhang Xuan's army."

Wang Shichong immediately said angrily: "I didn't go to his Beihai, what did he do when he came to Qi County?"

"The commander is angry. Now we need to find out the situation. Since the ship is destroyed, it will be difficult for more than a thousand brothers who stay on the south bank to come back. What is their current situation? This is the key."

When Wang Shichong thought of the thousand soldiers, he had to suppress his anger and turned to his brother Wang Shiyun and said, "Please ask your brother to go to Beihai County and talk to Zhang Xuan to see how many brothers he has captured. I hope he will put everyone back. See what his attitude is."

Wang Shiyun quickly bowed and said, "I understand, let's go to Beihai County now!"

Wang Shiyun immediately took two entourages on a small passenger ship. The ship sailed towards Beihai County, but he did not dare to go to Qi County. Instead, he went directly to Qinghe County.

Compared with the last time Zhang Xuan inspected the Beihai County Wharf, the wharf has undergone great changes. First, five large warehouses made of bluestone have been completed, and the wharf has also been built with bluestone. More than 300 steps have been completed, enough to dock several large ships.

At present, hundreds of craftsmen are taking the necessary military defense facilities and government offices. Some keen merchants have bought land first and started to build shops. Not far away, an army of 300 people has been stationed on the dock.

As soon as Wang Shiyun's ship docked, a team of patrol soldiers surrounded Wang Shiyun. "Who?" the soldiers asked viciously.

"I am here to visit General Zhang by the Prince of Qinghe County!"

He looked at Wang Shiyun for the head captain and said coldly: "You are one step late. General Zhang just left an hour ago."

"oh!"

Wang Shiyun was upset and asked quickly: "Where has General Zhang gone?"

"It should be back to Linzi County, he has been there during this period!"

"Then can I go?"

The head captain looked at him for a moment and turned around and ordered: "The first team of brothers sent him to Linzi County!"

At dusk, Wang Shiyun arrived in Linzi County under the close surveillance of thirty soldiers.

Zhang Xuan had just arrived in Linzi County two hours ago. At this time, Linzi County was almost filled with refugees and migrants, and only more than 10,000 were only a few days ago. In just two days, the number of people in Qinghe County fled from Qi County had exceeded 30,000.

Zhang Xuan led his army to wipe out Wang Shichong's robber army in Linji County. The news of saving the whole county quickly spread throughout Qi County as if it had wings. Various details were spreading magically. Zhang Xuan's thunder attack formed a sharp contrast with Pei Renji's weakness.

Zhang Xuan has become a savior of the people of Qi County. More and more people who originally stayed in Qi County chose to move to Beihai County. Linzi County is the first county to come from Qi County. Although the number of people fled over 30,000, there are still a large number of people on the way to relocate.

Almost all the officials of Beihai County rushed to Linzi County. They ascended the throne, arranged accommodation, provided food, etc., and were so busy that the officials were not stuck in the ground. Zhang Xuan specially ordered Yuchi Gong to lead 3,000 troops to assist the officials in maintaining order.

In front of a newly arrived ox cart, Zhang Hyun was chatting with the owner of the ox cart. This was an old couple who came with their grandson. The ox cart was filled with various household items, but the children's parents did not come with them."

"Why didn't my father-in-law's son and daughter-in-law come?" Zhang Xuan asked with a smile.

"We have rented more than 100 acres of land in Qijun. Now they are busy with farming. They want to wait for the summer harvest before coming over. Let's take a step first, General, can we rent the land?"

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, "Beihai County has enough land, and they will arrange it one by one. You can rent the land from the government first. There is almost no rent or tax in the first few years. In addition, you can raise cattle and sheep, so you have no problems with your life."

"Then I'm relieved, I hope I can settle down soon."

Zhang Xuan waved to find one of the employees and instructed him: "It's already late. Let's arrange a small private account for the elderly first, and register it tomorrow, so I'll take good care of you!"

"Please rest assured, General, my subordinates will do it."

"Thank you, General!" The two old men bowed to Zhang Xuan and thanked him.

Zhang Xuan waved his hand and turned around and walked towards a group of soldiers not far away, "What's the matter?"

A team was walking forward and bowing, "Report to General, Wang Shichong sent someone to see the General."

It turned out that Wang Shichong had sent someone. Zhang Xuan looked behind the soldiers and saw Wang Shiyun's fat body in the dusk. Zhang Xuan quickly walked up and smiled, "It turns out that it is Wang Envoy, it's been a long time since I saw you."

Wang Shiyun hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "General Zhang, I'm here to do it."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Xuan waved his hand and interrupted him, "This is not a place to speak, please follow in the city!"

The two of them turned over and headed towards the county town. Wang Shiyun finally couldn't help asking: "General Zhang should have some of our soldiers in his hands, right?"

Zhang Xuan held the war horse, and he looked at Wang Shiyun and said, "The King of Envoys will make a decision first! Should we talk first, or should the King of Envoys go and see the people first?"

Wang Shiyun pondered for a moment and said, "If it's convenient, I'd better go and see people first."

Zhang Xuan waved his hand, and the captain Chen Xu rushed forward, "Please give me instructions!" He clasped his fists and bowed.

"You should take this envoy to the prisoner-of-war camp first and take him to see me again."

"Abide by the orders!"

Chen Xu waved his hand, "Please!"

Wang Shiyun burst into a cold sweat on his back, and it actually called the prisoner of war camp. Did they have a fierce battle?

He quickly bowed to Zhang Xuan and ran away with Chen Xu. Zhang Xuan looked at his back and couldn't help but snorted coldly, urging the horse to go into the city first.

The so-called prisoner of war camp is located within the Sui army camp.

Shortly after Yuchi Gong led 3,000 troops to Linzi County, he built a military camp outside the county town. The northwest corner of the barracks was marked as a temporary prisoner of war camp. It was surrounded by huge fences and was guarded by special people, imprisoning more than 500 soldiers of the Huainan Army of Wang Shichong. Some were captured by the attack fleet, and the other was soldiers led by the side general Lang Ling.

Wang Shiyun was led into the Sui army camp and came directly to the prisoner-of-war camp.

Chen Xu told a soldier a few words and said to Wang Shiyun: "Please, envoy, please! I won't go in, I will take the envoy to go there."

Wang Shiyun nodded silently, followed the guards into the prisoner's camp, walked into a large tent and waited.

After only a moment, Lang Ling, a side general wearing a white middle garment, iron shackles on his feet and shackles on his hands, was led in. He was listless, but when he saw Wang Shiyun, his eyes lit up and rushed forward and knelt on the table, "Sir, save us!"

Wang Shiyun was also stunned. He didn't expect Lang Ling to become like this. What is the difference between this and the severely punished prisoners in prison?

"General Lang, tell me first, what happened?"

Lang Ling then told Zhang Xuan to Linyi County, annihilated 300 soldiers, burned ships and encircled them, and finally sighed: "We were killed 800 people one after another, and there were about 500 brothers imprisoned in the military camp with Bei Zhi. It is estimated that Zhang Xuan was waiting for the chief to come."
