Chapter 279
"Let them stay in the barracks first!" Shen Hui'e thought for a moment and said, "Oh, there are more than 200 horses in the barracks! We need to find someone to feed them. We can't let them starve." She pursed her lips and said, "I'll go take a look later and comfort them at the same time."
"Let them help feed the horses." Shen Penglai said with a smile, "We don't need to bother two people with one thing."
"Yeah!" Shen Hui'e smiled and nodded, "Oh, right! Where is the general? We have taken down the barracks outside the city, but the general is not outside the city."
"I have someone watching! There is no movement at the moment." Tie Feng said with sharp eyes.
"Be careful! Don't fight back. If you dare to show your head, I will shoot you." Shen Hui'e said with cold eyes and murderous aura all over her body.
"I asked our best archers to aim at his house." Tiefeng looked at her sharply and said, "They used crossbows."
"Okay!" Shen Hui'e nodded and smiled, "Let's just sit back and wait and see who can't hold back first."
After Shen Hui'e made all the arrangements, she watched them leave and then inspected the county magistrate's mansion.
Then he left the city and went to the barracks on the outskirts of the city.
When the women saw her coming, they immediately went to greet her happily.
"We all know it."
"What do you all know?" Shen Hui'e looked at them not quite understanding.
"Some of us secretly returned to our shacks and found out that Hezhong Prefecture is now in your hands. You even opened the granaries to release grain and returned the land to us."
"What about this!" Shen Hui'e looked at them with eyes as gentle as jade and said, "Aren't you going home? Now that you know the situation at home."
"Didn't we promise to do the laundry?"
"Haven't you finished washing the clothes yet?" Shen Hui'e blinked her clear eyes and looked at them and said.
"No, too many."
"We'll get it done as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, don't worry, take your time to wash." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her bright black eyes and said, "You can live here peacefully, we may not be able to come back in a short time." Then she asked with concern, "Is there any food here?"
"Yes, yes, yes! We have enough food."
"That's good." Shen Hui'e looked at them gently and said, "I came here to ask you to feed the horses. The horses in the stable."
"We don't know how to do that!"
“Will the horses kick us?”
"Can I get closer?"
"This horse eats grass." Shen Hui'e pondered for a moment and said, "When you are at home, do you feed the pigs and chickens?"
"Hey!" They nodded in unison.
"Just feed these first! It won't cause any problems if he eats it." Shen Hui'e thought for a while and said.
"But where is the pig grass now? It's winter."
"This?" Shen Hui'e was embarrassed when she heard this. She put her index finger on her lips and rubbed it. "Got it! Food from the granary. Food for the horses."
"Isn't this too... This is food, food for people to eat, how can you use it to feed horses?"
"This is a war horse." Shen Hui'e thought carefully and said, "You just feed it for two days. When my people come, they can feed it. It's too dangerous to let you go out to collect grass for pigs." Then she added, "You can feed it with crushed soybeans! Just for two days."
"OK then!"
"I'm here to take care of this. You guys just stay here peacefully, lock the door, and protect yourselves." Shen Hui'e looked at them with eyes as gentle as jade and said, "I won't bother you for long. I'll have someone come to take over soon."
"No trouble, no trouble." They all shook their heads.
"Can we stay here forever?"
“This is a military camp…”
Before Shen Hui'e finished her words, their expressions were clearly not right.
"We are different from them." Shen Hui'e said quickly.
"We know. That's why we think about whether we can stay."
Shen Hui'e looked at them with her glassy eyes and said, "If you think it through, you can actually go home."
"Go home? How can that be possible when there is a grudge in my heart?"
"We can mend things, wash things, and leave us here, General!"
"Just give us a bite to eat, no money is needed."
Shen Hui'e smiled slightly when she heard this and comforted them, "Think about it carefully when you have time. It will be very tiring to follow me."
"I'm not afraid of being tired, as long as I'm not bullied."
"You have been the best to me over the years."
"We've only known each other for less than a day, how come you guys are so nice?" Shen Hui'e said with amusement, looking at their naivety.
"You opened the warehouses and released food, and sent out clothes, and killed all the bad guys."
"He's a good man, a good man."
Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed, "We have time anyway. Think it over and we can discuss it later. How do you think?"
"Row!"
Seeing that they agreed, Shen Hui'e stood up and said, "I'll go check on the horses first."
Everyone went to the stable with lanterns in hand. When they saw the lifeless horses, they felt soft-hearted and angry.
"Aren't they war horses? Why is this happening?"
"I think we should feed him some food! He has been hungry for who knows how long."
"Look at this fur, it's not shiny at all."
"Look at how skinny he is. His pelvis is sticking out."
Yes! They care about these horses more than I do.
"Hey! Soybeans and wheat bran." Shen Hui'e said to them with a smile on her face.
"Know, know."
"Don't worry! We will definitely feed them well."
“It’s so tragic.”
After temporarily settling them down, Shen Hui'e left the barracks and ran all the way to the city gate on the stars.
Compared with the gloomy shack before, the shack is now full of vitality and you can even smell the scent of food.
Shen Hui'e ordered the city gate to be opened, entered the city, and took a walk around the city. Everyone was in high spirits!
His eyes were as big as bells, and he looked around vigilantly.
Shen Hui'e told them to prepare more ginger soup to ward off the cold!

Two days later, Huang Zhongchang arrived with three hundred people. The common people inside and outside the city showed great enthusiasm for him and welcomed his arrival very much.
The crowd that lined the streets to welcome them walked all the way into the county governor's mansion.
"How come they all know me?" Huang Zhongchang, who was sitting in the main seat, said somewhat flattered.
"It was my second sister-in-law's request. When we open the granaries and release the grain, we must publicize your kindness and righteousness, second brother." Huang Shuchang said, looking at him with a smile.
"Is anyone among us injured?" Huang Zhongchang asked with concern.
"No." Huang Bochang said with a grin, "The attack was very smooth."
The two brothers talked in detail about how they captured Hezhong Prefecture.
"Is it so simple and easy?" Zhang Jixian looked at them in disbelief.
"What else? It's going to be a fierce battle!" Tie Feng said with a smile, "How can they still be soldiers? They don't look like soldiers at all. Their military equipment is in disrepair. It would be a miracle if they are not defeated!"
"It's only been two years!" Zhang Jixian couldn't help but sigh.
"Maybe it has already started, but we just don't know it." Shen Hui'e looked at them with a deep gaze and spoke slowly.
"That's right! We rarely see relatively independent armies." Huang Zhongchang nodded hurriedly when he heard this.
"The people in South City, North City and outside the city have all been resettled. Only East City and West City are still resisting stubbornly." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her deep and bottomless eyes and said.
"If you have any solution, please tell me!" Huang Zhongchang said to her with a smile in his dark eyes.
"Let me tell you, let me tell you." Huang Shuchang spoke enthusiastically about the strategies adopted for East City and West City.
Huang Zhongchang opened his mouth unconsciously. After hearing this, it took him a long time to come back to his senses. This woman was really cruel.
"Now that we have a strategy, let's do it!" Huang Zhongchang said, rubbing his hands eagerly.
The subsequent rapid expansion.
Shen Hui'e took Huang Zhongchang and handed over all the confiscated spoils to him.
"I asked someone to register them. There is a list. You can compare them." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her deep and bright eyes.
"Don't you and I believe it?" Huang Zhongchang said casually.
"Let's compare them." Shen Hui'e said in a businesslike manner, and then added, "This is the list of enemies to be killed."
Huang Zhongchang took it, unfolded the cloth and looked at it, left and right, thirty-eight times, "Why is your name not on it?"
"I didn't kill anyone!" Shen Hui'e was stunned when she heard this, and then said.
Huang Zhongchang chuckled and shook his head, "You are in command, so you don't have to do it yourself. If you really have to do it, it will be a fierce battle."
"Haha..." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed at him in surprise, "You are so good at talking."
"I'm telling you the truth." Huang Zhongchang closed the roster and said, "No need to flatter you." Then he added, "I want to discuss something with you. How can we reward you based on your merits?"
"It's up to you to decide." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her bright eyes and said, "First, pay the owed food and wages. You said so."
"Right, right, right!" Huang Zhongchang nodded hurriedly upon hearing this, "Give me more gold and silver as a reward. As for this achievement, remember it and I will reward you later."
"Sit down, sit down and talk." Huang Zhongchang said, pointing to the railing on the corridor.
"Mother, Father." Big Beast and Li Nu came running over and said.
"Why are you here too?" Shen Hui'e squatted down and looked at them with eyes as gentle as jade, saying, "Why didn't you tell them that they were coming too?"
"We didn't mean to disturb you from doing your work. Let's take a look around the County Magistrate's Mansion first. It's so big!" The raccoon slave spread his arms and looked at her with eyes as round as black grapes.
"Dad, Dad, are we going to live here in the future?" said Da Chong, grabbing his father's hand.
"I don't know what to say about this?" Huang Zhongchang looked at them in embarrassment.
"What do you mean?" Li Nu looked at him with big eyes full of doubt.
"The news that we have taken over Hezhong Prefecture will soon spread throughout the world." Huang Zhongchang lifted up the hem of his clothes, sat on the railing of the corridor, looked at them with burning eyes and said.
"So we can't be together, otherwise we'll be taken advantage of." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them tenderly.
"This..." The big insect blinked its black eyes and grabbed their hands and said, "I don't want to be separated from you."
