”Your majesty, this Yan Zheng has some ridiculous conditions, how detestable. However, Zhang Bao had more than two hundred and fifty thousand soldiers under him. Since they had already surrendered, they could not kill them. Since we can't kill them and can't release them, and Yang Lin's method is still effective, it's better to give them a place to cultivate their crops so that they don't cause any more trouble. ”

Although he clearly knew that it was Yang Lin's idea, Zhang Rong still could not say it out loud, and could only sigh in his heart, This Yang Lin was truly greedy. However, although these two hundred and fifty thousand xanthopanax s had declared their surrender, they still had not put down their weapons.

”You can't start with this. Yan Zheng had done a lot to kill Zhang Bao, so it was fine if they did not pursue the matter. If he still dares to state conditions, then we shall order Yang Lin to eliminate him. ”

He Jin took Yan Zheng's letter. After reading it, his face was also filled with anger. A random bandit dared to make conditions with the imperial government. Where was the prestige he had for the imperial government? If the imperial court agreed, wouldn't the bandits follow suit?

”If it was Great General He, how should I deal with these soldiers?”

Zhang Jun laughed coldly and asked He Jin. He Jin was only angry for a moment, and did not even consider how to place the captives. The court had always killed all the prisoners and had never cared so much. It was because of the appearance of Yang Lin that the problem of placing the captives had arisen.

”Let Yang Lin handle it. Jizhou is so big, how can we not place 250,000 prisoners in there? ”

”No way!”

Without waiting for He Jin to finish speaking, Hanling Emperor Liu Hong waved his hand and interrupted him. The emperor had never been so decisive in opposing him. He raised his head and coincidentally saw the stern eyes of the Hanling Emperor, and couldn't help but shiver as he heard Liu Hong's cold voice.

”Jizhou is too close to the Luoyang. As of now, the Upper Valley County and the Dai County have a small population and are mostly fresh inferior s. Furthermore, they are often attacked by the fresh inferior s of Mo Bei, so I order them to go to the Upper Valley County s and Dai County s to open up their fields, and let them fight against the fresh inferior s. ” The angel from the imperial government read out the order to pardon Yan Zheng, Gao Sheng, Ren Zhi, Qian Lin and the others. He then appointed Yan Zheng, Gao Shen as the lieutenant of the Upper Valley County, and allowed Qian Lin and the others to become the leader of the Dai County.

Hanling Emperor's order was much better than what Yang Lin had expected, causing Yang Lin to be extremely happy. For a long time, Yang Lin's yellow cloth army captive had been settled in the eastern and central parts of the Youzhou, and now, they finally had the chance to settle down in the main hall.

The Upper Valley County and the Dai County were located in the western part of the Youzhou. Amongst them, Upper Valley County had eight counties, a population of only five ten thousand people, and eleven of them had fallen, with a population of only one hundred and twenty thousand. fresh inferior was the majority of the two counties, and a large piece of land became the fresh inferior's pasture.

It should be said that the arrangement of the Hanling Emperor s was very strategic. With these yellow cloth army captive s, no matter if it was the Upper Valley County or the Dai County, the Han people would occupy the vast majority. This would greatly weaken the power of the fresh inferior and benefit the stability of the border area.

However, the second decree of Hanling Emperor Liu Hong made Yang Lin feel extremely depressed. Without any warning, he ordered Yang Lin to go to the capital immediately. Not only did he not explain the reason, he even pressed for time, causing Yang Lin to be unable to make heads or tails of it.

The one who came to the Jizhou this time to announce the news was a Young Eunuch. The Song Dian who came to the Jizhou in the past to announce the results was not here yet, maybe he was afraid that Yang Lin would ask him something, so she decided to avoid coming here. As the face of an imperial angel, Yang Lin didn't have any expression at all. After the eunuch who came to deliver the imperial edict finished reading it, Yang Lin sent the imperial angel away mediocre.

On the night of sending off the Eunuch with the decree, Yang Lin summoned the main general and army advisors to his Big Account. On the surface, it looked like they were discussing about entering the capital, but in reality, Zhou Yong wanted the army advisors to analyze what was wrong with Hanling Emperor's mental state and wanted him to go to Luoyang.

”Lord General, it is a joyous event that Zhang Bao was killed and his entire xanthopanax exterminated. When the Emperor summoned his lordship into the capital, he definitely wants to make it clear to the world that he does not want to do so, and may even bestow upon him a reward. ” Just as Militaries was thinking, Xin Ping suddenly stood up and said. Actually, everyone could imagine that this was probably the most honorable reason behind Hanling Emperor recruiting Yang Lin to the capital.

At this moment, Kuai Liang stood up, bowed towards Yang Lin, and said: ”Lord General, from what I know, Lord General has not seen the Emperor and the court courtier since the start of the army. This time, the Emperor has recruited a Lord General to the capital, so he might want to personally inspect the intentions of the Lord General. ”

Yang Lin nodded his head, feeling that what Kuai Liang said made more sense. How could the emperor not have seen him with a large army guarding a region? How could he not be worried? There was a saying: hearing is deceptive, seeing is believing. Sooner or later, he would definitely want Yang Lin to meet him.

Several strategists were talking about this and that, and they were talking about it with similar intentions. Yang Lin knew clearly in his heart that under these circumstances, no one would dare to say anything outrageous. Zhang Banxian, who usually liked to talk, did not say a word, and closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep.

”Alright, it's already late. Let's stop here for today.”
