Chapter 270 If you can’t speak, don’t speak. What happened next progressed very quickly. Before Feng Zan's ribs had fully grown, He Ran's first batch of military rations had been delivered. Along with the military rations, there were thirty thousand taels of silver. These thirty thousand taels were just enough for Feng Zan to pay the soldiers. But for Feng Zan, who even mixes wheat bran into his cornbread, it’s timely rain. The person escorting the military rations was He Shaolin. He also brought two medical workers and a batch of medicinal materials. He Shaolin smiled and said to Feng Zan: "Our boss is not in Jinyang, but she left a message before she left. We are all doing things according to the boss's instructions. Mr. Feng, don't worry, the follow-up military rations and money will be sent one after another. Come." Feng Zan saw that He Shaolin was dressed in casual clothes, and his speech and behavior did not look like a soldier, and he still had a bit of a philistine spirit. He also remembered what Ma Guang said just now, saying that when the truck was unloaded, there were more than a dozen trucks of goods that were not for them. Covered with tarpaulin, I don’t know what it is. Feng Zan was suspicious and asked, "I wonder if Brother He has any position in the army?" He Shaolin chuckled: "To tell you what General Feng said, I have no official or position, and I am not in the army. I just travel around and work as a hawker."
Feng Zan understood. It turned out that this was really a businessman. He didn't expect that He Ran had his own caravan. "The head of the family sent Brother He to Hejian Mansion to do business?" Feng Zan asked. He Shaolin admitted generously: "Yes, I brought some goods with me, and I am traveling with merchants from Jin. I am new here, so I asked Mr. Feng to make it convenient for me." Feng Zan understood that this was really a caravan sent by He Ran, but he didn't expect that He Ran would stretch out his hand so quickly. He Ran, the commander-in-chief, had not yet performed his duties, but He Ran had already completed the business. This was without He Ran in Jinyang. Wait, He Ran is not in Jinyang, so these were arranged by He Ran before he left. Was He Ran sure that he would agree? Feng Zan felt so happy that he had been manipulated. But when he turned around and saw the smiling faces of his brothers, he felt that there was nothing wrong with being teased. There were so many people in the world, but He Ran could only control him, so He Ran still valued him. He was a talent. Ma Guang ran over with excitement on his face: "Boss, I just heard from those Jin people that there will be armors in the future, all brand new armors!" Yang Wu also came over: "Boss, boss, you sold yourself this time and it was really worth it. You got so many things back!" Feng Zan: If you can’t speak, don’t speak! Nie Chen is not in a hurry to go back, he wants to stay here temporarily. Feng Zan was a fierce general, but fighting a war cannot rely solely on bravery. Nie Chen had nothing to do, so he chatted with Feng Zan. At first, Feng Zan thought Nie Chen was too talkative. He only wanted to deal with this guy because of He Ran's face. But as they chatted, Feng Zan found that chatting with Nie Chen was interesting. He patted his forehead. How could he forget that Nie Chen was once Guo Shoufu's retainer, and later worked as an aide to He Ran. What he hurt was his body, not his brain, and he almost missed a big treasure. Ten days later, new armors and weapons were distributed to the soldiers. The next day, Feng Zan followed Nie Chen's plan and took over Hejian City. Then, with lightning speed, he captured Hejian City. The three counties surrounding Jianfu. He had conquered several counties before, but he only robbed some things and did not take over. But it's different now. He is not only the commander-in-chief of Hejian, but also the prefect of Hejian. The three newly conquered counties have all been re-appointed as magistrates. He originally wanted to appoint his brother as the county magistrate, but Nie Chen persuaded him.
His brothers are all rough guys and good hands on the battlefield, but they are not qualified to handle miscellaneous things as civil servants. Three new county magistrates took office one after another. One of them was a former county magistrate, another was an experienced official in the government office, and the other was selected by Nie Chen through temporary recruitment. In addition, Nie Chen continued to implement Ran Jun's policy. After Feng Zan's army captured the county town, they only controlled the officials and servants of the county government, and did not rob or set fire to the people in the city. This was the case in all three counties. At first, the people were so frightened that they hid at home and did not dare to go out. After hiding for three or four days, no one was banging on the door to search. Then they boldly walked out of the house, only to find that there were people on the street. There are actually shops open for business, and hawkers have also set up their stalls. There are even traders from Shanxi who have brought goods to sell in the city. When Feng Zan attacked the fourth county, the local magistrate led everyone in the yamen to open the city gate and welcome the army into the city. Nie Chen reminded Feng Zan that he must greatly appreciate this magistrate. He was able to escape, but he did not. He even risked the crime of surrendering and surrendered to the city, so that the people in the city could be protected from the war. At the same time, it also showed that Feng Zan Zan's open-mindedness has spread here. As expected, Feng Zan took a special liking to the magistrate. After a detailed discussion, he allowed the magistrate to stay in his post, and the county also transitioned smoothly, with no soldiers on either side injured. Only then did Feng Zan realize an important thing. On the surface, the magistrates of these four counties were appointed by him, but in fact, he all followed Nie Chen's guidance. Feng Zan scolded: "Students are so smart. I am still complacent here, thinking that I have a good vision. What a bullshit vision!" When they reached the fifth county, Feng Zan simply became the boss. He said to Nie Chen: "Don't ask me anymore about such trivial matters like mother-in-law and mother-in-law. I only care about fighting, and I only know how to fight!" Everyone: It turns out that being the county magistrate is a trivial matter for mother-in-law and mother-in-law. In Yudi, He Ran received a letter from Nie Chen. She sat on a large bluestone and read the letter, laughing loudly. Feng Zan was not a warrior who only knew how to fight. He assessed the situation, was able to bend and stretch, knew how to adapt, and was very thoughtful. Just two days ago, Ran Jun and Kaizhou Army had their first confrontation. He Ran thought that if she personally led the troops, even if King Kaizhou did not send his son Zhou Deng to fight, he would send a capable general to fight her, such as General Wu Chengqian. But He Ran never expected that she would actually see King Kaizhou in front of the two armies! He Ran had never met the King of Kaizhou, but that man looked noble and wore a hat that only a prince could wear. Who else could he be if he wasn't the King of Kaizhou? He Ran felt refreshed immediately. King Kaizhou valued her very much and actually came on stage in person. Of course, she didn't know until afterwards that just the night before, several sons of King Kaizhou were fighting among themselves again. Zhou Deng was injured, and another son was deposed. General Wu Cheng went to break up the fight, but he was hit by an arrow. . That arrow was shot by one of Zhou Deng's men, and that man had been hacked to death. Over the past few days, the King of Kaizhou has been tortured so much by the Huwei Army that his hair has turned half white. The Huwei Army finally withdrew, but his sons have been wreaking havoc to the death. They are all wise and courageous during internal fights, but Now that He Ran is here, none of them can go into battle to face the enemy. It's okay if he can't do it himself, but he also hurts Wu Chengqian, the number one general in Kaizhou.
