Uncle, please help the Han family

Of course, Liu Yu didn't mean that he felt sorry for Gongsun Zan.

After all, those Baima Yicong who died in vain because of her fault are more distressing than this powerful minister who supports himself.

What, cat crying mouse fake mercy, I killed it?

No, this is a necessary sacrifice.

And it's not me who has to pay for it, it's Gongsun Zan who has lost.

"Ling, let's go."

The war was over, and it was time to get busy with finishing work. After Liu Yu threw the feather-white robe on Gongsun Zan casually, he turned around.

"..."

Gongsun Zan, who had never been handed anything with such an attitude, unconsciously caught the white cloak without a trace of blemish or dirt with both hands this time.

Raising her head, looking at Liu Yu's indifferent back, she slowly wrapped the elegant robe around her body.

Because of his height, the cloak, which was just right for Liu Yu, completely covered Gongsun Zan, with the hem still dragging a little on the ground.

Lowering her head, she murmured blankly: "In fact, he doesn't want to conquer the arrogant and complacent me?"

-------------

Today, two good brothers are on the list, pushing books for them, both of them are powerful authors who are guaranteed to finish the book with a million words.

Chapter 63

Due to the rare scale of this war, in the past few years in Youzhou, it is second only to the Yellow Turban Rebellion with a million people, and Zhang Chun's rebellion with a hundred thousand people...

Well, Youzhou is really full of disasters.

In short, the end of the war brought some extravagant troubles.

For example, because the number of the Han army was too small, but too many horses were captured, on average, a soldier had to ride 1.5 horses to bring the spoils back to Jicheng.

That's right, the results of the battle were so exaggerated, far exceeding the returns that other victories could bring, and also exceeding Liu Yu's psychological expectations.

After all, generally speaking, war is a gold-swallowing beast, even if it wins, there will be a lot of losses.Not to mention losing, a big defeat for a small warlord is tantamount to sending it off.

Therefore, after Wu Yan was killed, Liu Yu called on the whole army, as well as the more than 1 logistics troops brought by Zhao Gaiqizhou from Jicheng (basically ordinary people, with a few militiamen), to clean up the area non-stop. On the battlefield, they didn't return to Juyongguan until night fell, and held a celebration banquet.

"My lord." Before the banquet began, a chief bookkeeper walked to the center and reported the results to Liu Yu on the chief seat and the generals present at the meeting, "The specific casualties have not yet been determined, but it is a rough estimate. Now, when the Great Wall Frontier Army began to resist Wuyan's army alone, our army had a total of more than 600 casualties (cannot join the battle order, minor injuries are not counted), including [-] infantry and [-] cavalry. Among the cavalry casualties , There are about [-] people in the Baima Yi Congjun Army."

This casualty is tentatively within Liu Yu's acceptable range, but it still hurts a little.

Not only for the cavalry, but for the heavy infantry, as long as they died in this battle of defending the country, Liu Yu felt sad.

Because they are all heroes who have broken their souls in other lands.

"Wrapped in horse leather, bring the remains of the fallen soldiers back to the outskirts of Jicheng for burial." Liu Yu ordered respectfully.

After the victory in the battle outside the pass, those small-scale rebellions inside the pass were nothing to worry about, so Liu Yu was not in a hurry to rush back, but decided to rest here for three days, clean up the battlefield, retrieve the corpses, and use The attitude towards the dead encourages the living.

"Here." The chief bookkeeper nodded to mark it down.

"Also." Liu Yu is a pragmatic party, so he added, "Sort out the list of soldiers who died in battle, issue pensions to their families, and exempt them from taxes for three years."

The essence of war is the mutual consumption of comprehensive national power, but the combat effectiveness of the army is the condensation of spiritual power.

The coach's humanistic care for the soldiers and their families can be seen with the naked eye.

In order to incorporate the vacillating Liaodong Army and capture the hearts of the people all over the world, Liu Yu will never abandon his benevolence.

"My lord benevolent!"

The civil servants and military generals at the banquet all got up from their seats and paid respects to Liu Yu.

At this time, their attitude towards Liu Yu has changed a lot.

A few years ago, when the protagonist was the governor of Youzhou, he was indeed benevolent, but he had to admit that he was a bit too benevolent and lacked the decisiveness that a politician should have.

But it is different now, the protagonist is a wise coach, a far-sighted state shepherd, a kind noble, and a handsome man.

He is so perfect that men will be crazy about it.

After all the generals had finished singing Liu Yu's praises, the chief book continued to report: "In this battle, the Wuyan army probably killed 7000 people, captured 3000 people, and nearly [-] people died in several pursuit battles. Flee back to the grassland through the other trails. Our army seized weapons and arrows, soft armor, countless furs, and more than [-] horses."

"[-] horses? Didn't you defeat [-] cavalry?" Liu Yu was a little puzzled by this number.

"Well, that's really the only thing." The master replied, "Because the infantry killed too many horses in combat against cavalry, and shot and killed a lot of random arrows when chasing, the opponent lost a lot of horses, and the old horse knew the way. , After the cavalry died, they ran to the north by themselves, and the number of cavalry in our army is limited, so we can only bring back so many horses."

Well, this is also reasonable.

After all, Liu Yu never imagined that less than [-] cavalry could kill [-] cavalry.

"That's right, the horses are well bred, let's take them back to Jicheng together."

The [-] horses were almost equal to the number of horses he had purchased in half a year, and they were well-trained army horses. Liu Yu was overjoyed.

Standing up, he directly raised the copper bottle, and congratulated Jie Wenwu, "Everyone has contributed a lot to this great victory. Liu Yujing has a bottle of dry city for all of you!"

Excellent subordinates should understand the reason why the leader toasts and I drink wildly.

Moreover, the leader still humbly calls himself his name, and praises himself warmly, so he should give the leader more face.

Civil servants and generals were grateful to Dade and drank the wine with a bottle, and some even drank directly from the jar.

However, not everyone is immersed in the big victory and swigs.

For example, Gongsun Fan, he is a little complicated now.

This time the seating order is very particular, the No.1 under the main character is Liu Bei, the second is Zhao Ziyu, and the third is myself.

Moreover, at this level of banquet, some new faces appeared. Liu Bei's second younger sister and third younger sister Guan Yu and Zhang Fei all arranged seats, and the family talent Zhang Yun (YUN), who was previously an envoy to Wuyan, also quietly took the place. Among them, and the ranking is not bad.

Gongsun Fan, who has always been keen on politics, has noticed a silent fission - the representatives of the old-school family are gradually replaced by Liu Yu's confidantes, and there is a high probability that they will not be replaced.

After all, these people are all fresh flesh around 20 years old, and their age advantage is too great.

No way, this is already an irreversible ending.

In the past, Gongsun Fan might still have some ideas, but on the occasion of the celebration banquet, Gongsun Zan was still imprisoned as a criminal, so saving his life would be considered a success.

Besides, Liu Yu has already promised the Gongsun family of Youzhou to belong to him, so what else can he ask for?

Just as he was thinking this way, Liu Yu came down from the steps, walked in front of him slowly, and squeezed his hand tightly with a smile.

"Lord, lord."

Gongsun Fan was stunned by this action.

Could it be that I just wrote the loss and helplessness on my face?

Is the lord here to wear your little shoes? !

"Everyone." However, Liu Yu just pulled it out, and then cheered loudly to the rest of the generals, "If General Gongsun hadn't captured the enemy's internal response in this battle and sent a message to me quickly, I am afraid that Juyongguan has been lost. There is no Gongsun General, I am in danger, and Youzhou is in danger!"

"Yes, yes, General Gongsun's contribution to supporting the Great Wall defenders so quickly is indisputable!"

"As long as you wait one more day, I'm afraid Juyongguan will be broken by the barbarians."

"It is the wisdom of General Gongsun to save millions of people in Youzhou from suffering."

Seeing that Liu Yu took Gongsun Fan as an example, the others also echoed and praised, with eager words.

"Come, General Gongsun, I respect you."

"Thank you, my lord!" Seeing Liu Yu toasting himself, Gongsun Fan quickly raised the copper bottle and started drinking without hesitation.

When the turbid wine flowed down his throat and into his stomach, his whole body was already hot.

It's not because of drinking, the alcohol is not so fast.

It's just that he's thinking about something extremely dangerous.

The danger of this matter is no less than a frontal battle with the barbarians.

to do, or not to do?

Gollum.

What can be gained by doing it, and what will be lost by not doing it?

Gollum.

If I don't do it, who will rush to do this kind of thing?

gollum...

"Lord."

After drinking the bottle of warm wine, Gongsun Fan suddenly said formally: "The situation was critical at that time, so the general did not have time to advise the Lord. Now that the war has been won, the war in Jizhou will also be calmed down. There is one thing that the Lord must not Do not check."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Liu Yu asked curiously, looking surprised.

Gongsun Fan put down the copper bottle, and after a little deliberation, he said righteously: "If you can contact and conspire with the barbarians outside the Great Wall, and you are familiar with our military and political secrets in Youzhou, then there must not be only a few spies, and there must be a big group behind them." power!"

What force?

Naturally, it is a family.

And it must be some aristocratic families who were touched because of the new policy and held grudges.

Liu Yu and Jill can think of it.

However, he still frowned and looked at the other party with a focused expression: "Hey? Does General Gongsun know who they are?"

"I'm sorry, my lord, I don't know who is the internal response." Gongsun Fan shook his head and denied it, and then said seriously, "But many Hu generals except Wu Yan were captured in this battle, they must know about it. Just need to interrogate Torture, no, not even coercion, just a little intimidation, and they will definitely drag it out."

As for who the candidate is, Gongsun Fan can actually guess, but he can't say now.

It cannot be said so easily.

"Indeed." Liu Yu nodded in approval.Then, raising his eyes slightly, he asked knowingly, "Then who can be sent to investigate the internal affairs of the Hu people?"

If the question had been asked before the Great War, no one would have volunteered to be a detective.

Some things, you know who is behind the scenes, but you can only turn a blind eye.

Because they are not one person, not a consortium, not an army, not a county government.

They are aristocratic families.

It's the minions extending to every corner, and the power spreading all over Youzhou, just like the root system under the big tree, it is difficult to eradicate at all-the aristocratic family.

But at this time, someone has to do it, someone has to do it.

But this matter is not something that anyone can do, nor is anyone who wants to do it just let him do it.

Liu Yu wants someone to do it.

"Lord."

Clasping fists with both hands, kneeling on one knee, Gongsun Fan recommended himself: "The last general is not talented, I would like to find these spies for my lord, and kill them in one fell swoop!"

it is good.

well.

Gongsun Fan's awareness here is very good, and he also pays attention to the use of words.

Why?

Because if it is to find out the spy, this sentence only needs the first two sentences.

But Gongsun Fan deliberately added a "kill in one fell swoop", and made the execution of the spies for himself on his own initiative.

Liu Yu read a sentence from the eyes of the other party - The Gongsun family of Youzhou is willing to be the master's executioner and eradicate the family that hinders the master's pace.

With a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, he raised the copper bottle that had been refilled with wine, and said meaningfully: "Honmu, I would like to respect the general again."

Chapter 64

Outside Juyong Pass, the Han army camp.

Most of the more than 1 Hu people who were captured were held here. Their hands were tied with thick ropes, and all the soft armor or animal skins were stripped off their bodies, leaving only the single clothes that covered their bodies. The second circle is above the open space surrounded by wooden fences.

Because they are not officers, nor high-level weapon users, they are completely placed here, waiting for Liu Yu to deal with them.

"Surrender to Mr. Liu and you can live. We shouldn't die, right?"

"That was in the past! In the past, Mr. Liu didn't know how to fight. What about now? Maybe he will let us go."
