Chapter 119: Taishi Ci: Hiding from disaster in Liaodong, mother at home is gone!

Guangling Commandery, outside Guanglingcheng

With the arrival of more than one hundred thousand refugees, the entire Guanglingcheng was exceptionally lively!

As the refugees passed through, Zhang Chao, Zhang Hong, Zang Hong, and others were all on the city wall, watching this scene, but were powerless to do anything!

"Damn Lin Ziyuan!"

Zhang Chao, who had luckily escaped a disaster, now looked at Lin Yang returning safely and said viciously!

And Zhang Hong, beside him, having experienced the previous incident, now looked pale and watched this scene with full worry!

Originally, Lin Yang was just a small County Magistrate of Jiangdu County!

With fewer than ten thousand troops and two or three hundred thousand people!

Now!

He was gathering refugees and disaster victims!

With fourteen thousand soldiers and over forty thousand commoners under his command!

If he were to be bellicose, forty thousand commoners could yield forty thousand troops!

This was definitely a major threat to his lord!

And!

Cheng Zhongde, who was under this man, had vicious schemes and was definitely not an easy person to deal with!

Zhang Hong thought in his heart, but felt exceptionally exhausted!

And in the military camp on the other side

"My lord!"

Cheng Yu and Zhao Yun also saw Lin Yang returning!

Looking at Cheng Yu, who was bowing, Lin Yang stepped forward and pulled him up!

"During this time, you have worked hard, Zhongde!"

The eighteen lords formed an alliance, and he had been gone for half a year!

That Jiangdu County could develop so well!

Was all thanks to Cheng Yu's hard work!

"My lord, you are too kind, it is all my duty!"

"Zhongde is too modest!"

Pulling Cheng Yu, Cheng Zhongde, the next moment, the two strode into the camp!

Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and Li Gang followed closely behind!

A moment later, in the camp

"My lord, Zhang Chao has now returned to Guanglingcheng and is gathering the troops within Guangling Commandery!"

In the previous battle, although Lin Yang defeated Zhang Chao's ten thousand troops!

But Zhang Chao also gathered over one thousand surrendered soldiers!

And returned to Guanglingcheng!

Relying on the strength of Guanglingcheng, it was impossible for them to take it down!

And!

Zhang Chao also had some troops in other counties of Guangling Commandery!

Now, they were also heading toward Guanglingcheng!

"My lord, we need to plan early!"

Cheng Yu finished stating the current situation, then sat to the side, waiting for Lin Yang's decision!

"Zilong, what is the current situation in the army?"

Sitting above, thinking slightly, Lin Yang looked at Zhao Yun below!

"My lord, currently there are only twelve thousand soldiers who can fight, of which six thousand are new recruits and two thousand are surrendered soldiers!"

Zhao Yun below reported!

Although they won the previous battle!

But the losses were quite heavy!

Just the number of those who died in battle was six or seven hundred!

Those who were injured and not yet recovered numbered as many as three thousand!

Hearing this troop configuration, Lin Yang couldn't help but feel a headache!

Such troops were no longer in a condition to engage in battle again!

"Temporarily return to Jiangdu to rest and reorganize!"

Hesitating for a moment, Lin Yang said!

Large armies fighting, soldiers are tired!

Now, taking advantage of the fact that Zhang Chao's soldiers had not yet arrived, returning to rest and reorganize was the most appropriate choice!

And!

Among the more than one hundred thousand refugees recruited before, Lin Yang only recruited four thousand soldiers!

Now that the Reputation Marketplace had been upgraded, the share provided had also increased again!

He also needed to recruit more soldiers!

Hearing Lin Yang's order to rest and reorganize, Cheng Yu, who was sitting to the side, nodded silently!

Lin Yang's decision made him very gratified!

At least!

This showed that Lin Yang was not carried away by the victory before him!

Wanting to contend for the world, the Guangling Commandery Governor Zhang Chao was just a small fry in the eyes of Cheng Yu!

What was truly worth paying attention to!

Were the four-generation-three-duke Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu!

And Gongsun Zan, who occupied the land of Youzhou!

One now occupied Jizhou, and the other was attacking Qingzhou!

And Gongsun Zan had already completely occupied the entire land of Youzhou!

These were the overlords among the lords!

Lin Yang was still quite far from these people!

At least!

He had to deal with the Guangling Commandery before him, and then plot for Xuzhou and Yangzhou!

Only by gathering the two provinces of Xuzhou and Yangzhou would he have the qualifications to contend with Yuan Shao and the others!

As Lin Yang made his decision, the army also quickly set off!

As for the surrendered Zhao Zicheng, he was also taken back to Jiangdu County by Lin Yang first!

Now that Zhang Chao was sitting in Guangling Commandery, Cheng Yu felt that there was no need to use Zhao Zicheng for the time being!

Following Cheng Yu's suggestion, Lin Yang also gave up the move of letting this person persuade his father to surrender!

First year of Chuping, mid-July, Guangling Commandery, Jiangdu County

"Father, this Jiangdu County is governed very well!"

In the courtyard next to the Jiangdu County government office, Cai Yan had also been observing Jiangdu County during this time!
