Chapter 142 Windfall
Chapter 142 Windfall
After resting in Hanzhong for ten days, Meng Chen led Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Chen Yaojin and an army of [-] to Shangyong.

As for the direction of Yizhou, it was handed over to Xue Rengui and Xu Huang to deal with it.

Although Shangyong City is currently in the situation of "no matter what", but affected by the development of the entire Hanzhong County, the development speed of the entire city is not bad.

The original muddy official road has been repaired, and caravans come and go in an endless stream.

"I never thought that Shamoke would have such abilities." Along the way, Meng Chen spoke highly of Shamoke's actions.

"It's really amazing that a little barbarian king can have such means."

Before the army reached the city gate, they saw Sha Moke leading a group of barbarians running out in a hurry.

"Samoke pays homage to Mengshishi."

"Hahaha, I haven't seen you for a long time, this Marquis is going to look at Lao Sha with admiration!"

Meng Chen laughed and jumped off the horse, then stepped forward quickly, and patted Sha Moke on the shoulder.

"Hehe, Mengshishi was joking, how does someone know how to govern. Shangyong can only rely on one person." Shamoke didn't greed for merit, but told the truth.

"Oh?"

Meng Chen made a difference, he didn't expect that the mere Shangyong City was still hiding dragons and crouching tigers.

At this moment, Meng Chen regretted that he didn't get to know him well when he arrived last time.

"This man's surname is Yan and his name is Xiang. He is Yuan Shu's counselor. After Yuan Shu died, he fled here and was rescued by someone."

"Yan Xiang!"

The name Mengchen is very familiar, and Yuan Shu's ability to become bigger has a lot to do with Yan Xiang's assistance.

When Yuan Shu was planning to proclaim himself emperor, Yan Xiang tried hard to persuade him but failed, and after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, he was named prime minister.

It can be seen from this that Yuan Shu attaches great importance to Yan Xiang, and Yuan Shu played a good hand of cards so badly that no one can blame him, only himself.

On the way from the east gate of Shangyong City to the Taishou's Mansion, Shamoke briefly talked about everything that happened in Shangyong.

"So, this Yan Xiang is really good at handling government affairs."

"Inspector Meng, there is something unfeeling, I don't know if I should say it or not?" Sha Moke hesitated, but Meng Chen had already seen through his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.

"Haha, with the help of Lao Sha from this Houruo, it's like a fish in water."

Meng Chen didn't answer, and gave the answer directly, which made Sha Moke overjoyed, and bowed his head.

Fortunately, Meng Chen moved quickly and stopped Sha Moke from kneeling.

"A man has gold under his knees, so he can only kneel down and kneel down to his parents."

"My subordinate understands!"

It is a great joy for Shamoke and his people to get Mengchen's approval.

At least under Meng Chen's rule, Shangyong barbarians will not be discriminated against.

In the past year, Sha Moke has frequently followed the caravan to Chang'an, and the prosperity of Chang'an has exceeded Sha Moke's cognition.

Especially after seeing the elite of the great Qin warriors, Shamoke knew that Mengchen must have a part in the world of the Han people.

This is also the reason why Samoke has frequently expressed his ideas to Xue Rengui recently.

It's a pity that Xue Rengui didn't dare to easily agree to Meng Chen's words.

And with the arrival of Mengchen, Shamoke finally realized his wish.

Before the two arrived at the prefect's mansion, Yan Xiang had been waiting here for a long time.

"Being busy with official duties, I couldn't meet you in person. Please forgive me, the governor."

"Yan Zhu's wound has not healed, so don't overwork." Meng Chen smiled and stepped forward to help Yan Xiang, and comforted him by the way.

After entering the mansion, Sha Moke knew that Meng Chen and Yan Xiang had something to discuss, so he consciously stood at the door of the study and acted as a guard.

Such a small move made Meng Chen give him a higher evaluation.

In the study room, Meng Chen, Liu Bowen, and Yan Xiang had a great chat and laughed heartily from time to time.

"Hell Master Bo thinks, who will Liu Biao send to lead the army?"

"The internal forces in Jingzhou are complex, among which the Huang family, the Cai family, and the Kuai family are the most important." Having said this, Yan Xiang took a sip of the tea in front of him.

Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia, ambushed and killed Sun Jian a few years ago, and was currently in a leading confrontation with Sun Ce.

Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue have almost no chance of leading the army.

"What about Huang Zhong?" Meng Chen couldn't wait to ask.

If Huang Zhong leads the army to attack, then Meng Chen will have to plan carefully, if he can subdue him, it will be the best.

"Although Huang Zhong is a member of the Huang family, he is excluded everywhere. Cai Mao is the only one who leads the army this time." Yan Xiang continued to analyze.

"Why not Liu Bei and Liu Xuande?" Liu Bowen said suddenly.

"Liu Bei has just arrived. Although Liu Biao has a lot of trust in him, he has been excluded by the three major families. It is absolutely impossible to lead the army, but the possibility of going out with the army is extremely high."

Meng Chen smiled complacently. In fact, Liu Bowen had already analyzed these questions, and the reason why he asked was mainly to test Yan Xiang's ability.

"Hahaha, I wonder if sir is willing to work for this Marquis?"

Meng Chen burst out laughing, talent is something that Meng Chen has never had too much, not to mention the most lacking at present are internal affairs talents.

"Thanks to the lord for not giving up, Yan Xiang is willing to do the work of a dog and a horse!"

"Hahaha, okay, Mr. Ben Houde's assistance is even more powerful."

"My lord, there are still more than a thousand people who escaped with my subordinates. I don't know my lord..."

"Accept, accept everything." Meng Chen waved his hand, completely unaware that there would be unexpected surprises.

"Since that's the case, my subordinates recommend a general to the lord, whose surname is Chen and whose name is uncle and nephew."

As soon as these words came out, Meng Chen opened his mouth wide. Others may not know who Chen Dao is, but Meng Chen knows it all.

According to historical records, after Chen Dao joined Liu Bei, he led a group of white scorpion soldiers as Liu Bei's personal guard, whose martial arts skills were no less than Zhao Yun's.

As for why few people know about it, it's mainly Luo's fault!
Just imagine, Cao Cao's earliest bodyguard was Dian Wei, after Dian Wei was Xu Chu, and Liu Bei has stayed by his side since he got Chen Dao.

It can be seen from this that Chen Daozhi's ability was recognized by Liu Bei.

"Where is uncle and nephew?" When he said this, the smile on Meng Chen's face became even stronger.

This trip to Shangyong not only accepted Sha Moke, but also took over Yan Xiang and Chen Dao along the way. This trip is already a sure profit.

"Ding, activate the hidden mission, form a thousand white scorpion soldiers, complete the mission and reward a lucky draw once."

Meng Chen was slightly startled by the loli voice in his mind, never expecting such a hidden mission!

However, before Meng Chen had time to be happy for too long, news of Jingzhou's army came before he closed the night.

"Report, my lord, Cai Mao commanded 15 troops out of Xiangyang, and the striker Liu Bei led [-] troops to Wancheng."

Meng Chen frowned, unexpectedly Liu Biao dispatched 15 troops.

But this seems a little unscientific. Jingzhou's focus is on Jiangxia, so how can there be a 15 army?

"My lord, Liu Biao is just bluffing, but Liu Bei needs to be more defensive."
