After the rain, the autumn mood is getting stronger.
Autumn seems to have just arrived in a very short period of time, and the greenery all over the mountains and plains has begun to turn a little yellowish.
The governor Zhu Yue took the cloak from Zhao Da's hand.
I wrapped myself up and watched the autumn wind blowing away the dead leaves, swirling and falling down.
Quite touching.
"It's been another year so soon."
“I’ve really been busy this past year.”
Zhu Yue smiled and said.
A year ago, perhaps Zhu Yue still had no real power as governor.
But now.
The entire Hezhou is already under Zhu Yue's control.
Although there are still some minor troubles in various places, in Zhu Yue's view, they are harmless.
Although his eyes were full of desolation, Zhu Yue was in a good mood.
"Sir, there is news from Heyang County!"
Zhao Da followed Zhu Yue and handed over a letter.
"Heyang County?"
"When was it delivered?"
Zhu Yue took it and asked calmly.
"It was just delivered half an hour ago."
Zhao Da said respectfully.
"Haha, it must be Chu La who sent it to me -"
"Um?"
Zhu Yue's smile suddenly stopped when he saw the news sent by Chu La.
His brows also wrinkled immediately.
"Sir, is there something unexpected happening in Heyang County?"
Zhao Da saw the change in Zhu Yue's expression and guessed that something had happened in Heyang County.
"Take a look."
"Sanhe County was not taken, but Yunzhong County was lost. Not only did we lose a lot of troops, but even the Tielin Army was lost. It's a bit incredible."
Zhu Yue shook his head.
Zhu Yue couldn't understand. He had obviously given Chu La a hint to take Sanhe County first, but Chu La actually moved towards Yunzhong County.
Yunzhong County and Shanqian County are both relatively large county governments with complete fortifications. A strong attack will definitely cause heavy losses.
Now is the time to accumulate strength.
The loss of so many people and horses is really undeserved.
Zhao Da was also surprised and quickly read the contents of the letter.
"Sir, there seems to be nothing wrong with Lao Twelve's plan, but why did there be such a change in the middle?"
"The Tielin Army has always been loyal and loyal, and it cannot be defeated. There are many doubts about the defection of the Tielin Army."
Zhao Da also frowned.
"Could it be that my previous suspicions were wrong?"
"But it shouldn't be."
Zhu Yue rubbed his eyebrows and had no clue.
"Sir, please think about it, do you want to send someone to support Lao Twelve? After all, Lao Twelve is the first to be the head of a county, so it is inevitable that he will have some shortcomings."
Zhao Da asked tentatively on the side.
"Zhao Da, you twelve brothers have been following me for how many years?"
Zhu Yue did not respond to Zhao Da's proposal, but asked Zhao Da.
"This is the sixteenth year."
"I am an old man now."
Zhao laughed and said.
"People will never grow old as long as their hearts are not old."
"You have been following me for so many years, so I can't help you."
Zhu Yue patted Zhao Da on the shoulder.
"What did you say, sir? If it hadn't been for your help, we brothers wouldn't be sure where we would be."
Zhao Da knelt on the ground and said.
"Get up and talk!"
"Zhao Da, please remember, no matter how good you are to your brothers or your subordinates, you don't have to trust others, and you don't have to trust others when you employ them."
"You can't just go and take the blame for the people below when they have a problem."
"Of course this won't work. You must know how to delegate power at critical times. When something like this happens, Chu La is more anxious than us. To replace him at this time will chill the hearts of our brothers."
"Heyang County still has two cities, Shanhe County and Hehe County. There is still a chance for a comeback. Let him do it himself."
"At this time, the forces of various states and counties will rise. They can make peace but not fight, they can pull together but not push away, and they can gather together but not disperse. I hope he can understand this."
"Find someone to send a message to Chu La, telling him not to rush for success, not to be impetuous, and to work steadily and steadily."
Zhu Yue said to Zhao Da.
"Yes, sir!"
"I'll make arrangements right away!"
Zhao Da nodded and said.
After watching Zhu Yue get on the carriage and leave, Zhao Da still stood there respectfully.
His eyes were full of admiration.
There are twelve of them.
At that time, they were twelve servants of the Zhu family. To put it nicely, they were called servants; to put it worse, they were slaves!
Just because their family members are all prisoners.
After they were regarded as prisoners, they were never looked at seriously.
When Zhu Yue was a child, he was not welcomed in the Zhu family because he was a commoner.
But Zhu Yue didn't put on any airs in front of his brothers. He led the twelve of them all the way to the present, making a comeback all the way, trampling on all the people in the Zhu family who looked down on them before.
With Zhu Yue's ability, he could have directly entered the court as an official, and was even regarded as his successor by Da Sima.
But Zhu Yue retreated bravely and became the governor of Hezhou, where he lay dormant.
But they knew that Zhu Yue had never been idle for so many years.
After several years of dormancy and preparation, once it takes off, no one can stop it!
Zhao Da took a deep breath, turned around and walked out.
Zhu Yue, who was on the carriage at this time, waved to the people next to him.
"No news about Han Ba yet?"
Zhu Yue asked the man.
"Sir, not yet. Do you want me to send some more people to look for it?"
The man said respectfully.
"Forget it, it's pointless."
Zhu Yue waved his hand.
Chu La's news just now did not mention Han Ba's affairs. If there is news from Han Ba, he will definitely tell it.
Even if you don’t say it, it’s still news.
It seems that Han was probably killed.
Zhu Yue played with the beads in his hand and smiled softly. In this way, it proved that my guess was right. I hope Chu La could figure it out by himself.
…
In the mountains and forests near Yunzhong County.
Under the leadership of Fang Fu, Zhang Bao and his team came to the bottom of the hillside where Erile fell.
Gale was still lying there, dying.
"Gale wind!"
Erile limped forward and rushed over.
Lying on Li Feng's neck, howling and crying.
Fang Fu stepped forward and took off the water bag from Erile's body, and poured a little towards Liefeng's mouth.
Although the strong wind at this time was weak, his eyes were still full of energy.
"The wound has suppurated and needs to be treated as soon as possible."
"Let's go, take Li Feng back as soon as possible, there should be some hope of saving him!"
Zhang Bao leaned over to check Li Feng's injuries and greeted the people behind him.
They took out the shelf they had prepared long ago and carried Liefeng up.
"Then I'll say goodbye to you all here!"
Fang Fu raised his hands to Zhang Bao and the others and said.
"ah?!"
"Uncle Fang, aren't you going back with us?"
"Didn't we agree?"
When Erile heard that Fang Fu was not going back, he immediately ran over.
"It's better for me to be here, I'm used to it."
Fang Fu smiled.
"Erile, you go back with Liefeng first. I have something to say with your Uncle Fang."
Zhang Bao waved to Erile.
Although Erile was a little reluctant to give up, he looked at Lifeng's appearance and still took the first step.
Fang Fu looked at Zhang Bao in surprise, not knowing what to say to him.
