Governor please stay

On the other hand, for Er Zhurong, the core lineage had suffered heavy losses, and if there was a man like Hu Lujin with tens of thousands of elite soldiers dangling around, he would not be able to sleep soundly.

Hu Lujin was worried that Er Zhurong would "close the door and beat the dog", and Er Zhurong was also afraid that Hu Lujin would counterattack Jinyang and take away his foundation!At this time, Hu Lujin wrote a letter, saying that he was not suitable for the water and soil of Lucheng, and wanted to lead his troops to the south.Er Zhurong saw that it was just what I wanted, so he got off the donkey and asked Hu Lujin to lead the people away quickly.

So there is today's scene.

An hour later, Hu Lujin led a large team out of Fushuixing to meet Gao Huan.The two met like old friends and talked very happily.Gao Huan had been chatting with him all the time, and didn't go to see Lou Zhaojun and their children who were sitting in the carriage.

I don't know if it was intentional, but Gao Huan even talked cordially with Hu Lujin's brother Hu Luping, but never asked about Lou Zhaojun's situation.He knew that the other party was in the team, but he didn't take a look.

After the group returned to Yecheng, Gao Huan didn't stop, and issued several edicts in the name of Emperor Yuan Long in Ba Mansion.

Article [-]: It is a great honor to be appointed as the governor of Youzhou, the governor of Youzhou, and other idle officials who can be assigned to the top.Except for the commander's headquarters, the soldiers and horses of all counties in Youzhou are under his control.

Article [-]: Related to Article [-], Hu Lujin was ordered to lead his troops northward to Youzhou, and the soldiers pointed directly at Hanlou, which supported its own self-respect.

Article [-]: Disband the Xingtai in various places in Hebei (set up by Er Zhurong at the time when Er Zhurong settled Ge Rong's trilogy, and this strategy was proposed by Liu Yishou), take back the military power and redistribute it.

Youzhou is the backyard of Hebei, the northern frontier, and its strategic position is extremely important.Han Lou's thorn got stuck in Gao Huan's throat, making him unable to sleep well.Now that Hulu Jinxiong has a strong army, he can finally use troops against Youzhou!

……

In the cold autumn, it is a pleasant thing to take a bath in the big pool.In the past, Hu Luxian only heard that this was the place where Liu Yishou led his subordinates to discuss matters. Today, he also had the opportunity to come in to "join in the fun", and he was really honored.

There were many wooden plates floating in the pool, with seasonal melons and fruits on them. Hu Luxian took a look and found that only Peng Le was eating, and the others were quietly waiting for Liu Yishou to speak. He resisted taking the plates. The impulse, just did not move.

"Everyone, I recently received news that Hulu Jinhu Luguang and his son have taken refuge in Gao Huan, along with tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians. Now Gao Huan is ready to attack Hanlou in Hebei."

Liu Yishou ate tangerines while talking, and found that everyone except Peng Le didn't eat them, so he said with a smile: "We are all old-fashioned, and we don't care about these details."

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt relieved and started eating.Liu Yishou thought to himself, now that he is becoming more and more majestic, no one dares to show off in front of him.

Everyone in the hot pool looked at Hu Luxian from time to time, which made the "Condor Shooting Boy" very uncomfortable.

He hangs around here, his father and elder brother Hu Luguang hang out under Gao Huan's subordinates, it has to be said that this is a very common survival strategy.But Liu Yishou mentioned it now, but it can't help but make people think about it.

"What are your master's plans?"

Dugu Xin, who doesn't talk much on weekdays, has become more active recently.Yu Jin led troops to the outer town of Xuyi, and many people felt that their chance had come.

"Gao Huan also promulgated a new land equalization system, and he wants to build Hebei into an iron barrel. I guess he will have no problem flattening Hanlou. As for us, we can just have some fun for Gao Huan recently."

This year, Gao Huan's upward trend is obvious. He has issued a series of security decrees based on the people's will. In addition, this year's weather is suitable and the fields have a bumper harvest.The right time, place, and people are all on Gao Huan's side. It's true that this thief's climate has become established, so he can't compete with him.

"My lord, this year's Shouyang is also a bumper harvest. After the construction of Sun Shu'ao's ancestral hall this year, we have formulated water regulations, and the use of Shaopi has gradually become more standardized. Gao Huan is developing well, and we are not bad."

Yang Xiuzhi said calmly at the side, he is now a veritable flattering emperor, and every time he flatters a horse, he can hit the vital point.Everyone said in their hearts that what they said just now was really good, and they felt relieved after hearing it.

"That being said, our territory is much smaller than Gao Huan's, and our potential is much weaker than theirs!"

Liu Yishou said with emotion.

To be honest, he felt that the development of Shouyang should be better than that of Hebei, especially this year when Jia Sixie organized a "training course" to guide farmers in farming, and exchanged information with Liang Guo, which brought a lot of money.

If we talk about the quality of development, we really beat Gao Huan and others.

But the problem is that your base is limited, and no matter how large the coefficient is, there is a limit to growth.This is an inherent disadvantage, and there is no solution at all.The only solution is to take up more space!

"General Dugu, General Zhao, after winter, when the river freezes, lead your troops to attack Xiapi County and Donghai County to the east of Pengcheng. In this way, this area will border on Liang State's existing territory. Pengcheng has no worries."

Liu Yishou's deployment seemed a bit strange.Because these two places can be occupied, and it is easy to occupy, but there is no support point, so they cannot be defended.To defend, it depends purely on the number of troops.

"The last general takes orders!"

Dugu Xin and Zhao Gui said excitedly.Liu Yishou only said to attack there, but he didn't say that they should defend after the attack.As long as it is captured, it is a victory, and we will talk about the rest later.

"My lord, this battle is completely meaningless. After we regain it, we won't be able to defend it. If we could defend it, Liang Guo would have done it long ago. It's a waste of money and food for us to attack there."

Wang Wei couldn't help but interrupted Liu Yishou to continue talking.

The so-called counselor is to make up for the lord's decision-making mistakes.Liu Yishou's order just now, to be honest, was really out of standard, basically down to Xiao Yan's level.

At this time, he had no choice but to stand up and stop, even if he would offend Dugu Xin, Zhao Gui and others.

"After taking down these two counties, we will hand them over to the people of Liang Guo for management. I will write a letter to Xiao Yan, saying that our strength is limited and the land we have won is not a fiefdom, and it is extremely inappropriate for us to occupy it.

Ask Liang Guozhong to send local officials to take over this place, and re-appoint the governor to be in charge of the defense of the second county.After conquering these two counties, we will retreat to Pengcheng and join forces with Wu Mingche. "

Eh?Can you still play like this?

Everyone was shocked, they didn't understand what Liu Yishou wanted to do.

"It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree. These two counties are the springboard for us to attack Lanling County. If we fight down and Xiao Yan gets the land, his ambition will definitely expand. There will be people in the court who want to pick peaches and lead troops. Attack Lanling County and take back the ancestral home of the clan.

If they want to do something, then let them do it.Do you understand this truth? "

Liu Yishou said with a smile.

Some people have already shown a look of sudden realization.

My lord's move is really damaging. Liang Guo won the three counties of Gao Huan, and the opponent will definitely not give up. If Gao Huan even endures this tone, then Qing Xu, whose control is already very weak, may break away from Wei State control, seek refuge in Nanliang.

Isn't this sensational, isn't Yang Kan the most direct evidence?

So after Gao Huan knew about these actions, he would definitely respond strongly, and he would never escape a fierce battle with Liang Guo.Can Liang Guo stop it at that time?There is a big question mark here!

Liu Yishou's "four or two pulls a thousand catties" this time is tantamount to setting Gao Huan and Xiao Yan on the fire.

As far as Xiao Yan is concerned, I have already attacked Lanling County for you. Can you resist sending troops to attack Lanling County?

For Gao Huan, Qing Xu lost ground one after another, and his rule was crumbling, so he had to deal with it.

At that time, both sides fought life and death, would Xiao Yan miss that cheap son-in-law who held a heavy soldier, was good at fighting, and was good at fighting?

"Wonderful, my lord's skill of picking chestnuts from the fire is really brilliant!"

Hu Luxian imitated Yang Xiuzhi's tone and praised.

"You can tell the chestnut out of the fire, it's really hard for you."

Liu Yishou put his arm on Hu Luxian's shoulder, and said loudly to the crowd: "Now the battle for the general situation has begun.

The former state of Wei has already existed in name only, Gao Huan took the initiative and wanted to recover the lost ground steadily.

The success or failure of He Bayue's attack on Guanzhong is still unknown, so it should not be underestimated.

Liang Guo's government is corrupt, there are many square towns, and the various places are not coordinated with each other, just like tribes on the grasslands.It looks powerful, but it is actually vulnerable.

We already have the capital to gain a foothold, and what we need to do now is not to plunder land indiscriminately, to hit this today and hit that tomorrow.

I summed up nine words, that is: build walls high, accumulate grain widely, and become king slowly.

This is a struggle that will last for a long time, maybe five or ten years will tell the winner.Gentlemen, our career has just begun, and it is far from the time to lie down and enjoy it! "

Chapter 315 Counting Merry Characters, Looking at the Present

On the wall of the study in Liu Yishou's mansion, there is a very detailed map, covering Lianghuai, Sanwu, Henan, Qingxu and other places in the north, including Jiankang.This was compiled and summarized by Yang Min's organization from various captured official maps of the Northern Wei and Nanliang.

And many places above have been circled and commented.

At this moment, Liu Yishou was standing in front of the big map, pacing back and forth.And Chen Yuankang was like an invisible person behind him, neither speaking nor doing other things.

"Chang You, what do you think Gao Huan will do when we win Xiapi County and Donghai County this time?"

Liu Yishou asked with his back to Chen Yuankang.

To be honest, Chen Yuankang is too familiar with those people in Hebei. On these issues, his views will be much more accurate than that of Wang Wei, who came from a poor family.

"Qingxu is the flank of Hebei. Since ancient times, the line of Qingxu has been fought from south to north. It has a good record. Huanwen went through this line in the Northern Expedition. Liu Jinu (Liu Yu) fought all the way to Luoyang Gao Huan doesn't say anything, he still has capable people under his command.

Hehe, how could Gao Huan tolerate Liang Guo nibbling Qingxu? "

Chen Yuankang said with a sneer.

The forces of the Qingxu family suffered heavy losses in the late Northern Wei Dynasty. Those who went away died, first Xing Gao, then Liu Yishou, and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court.

Qingxu has now left a large power vacuum, and those people in Hebei may have been coveting there for a long time, and they are worried that they can't find an excuse to send troops!

"Then do you think we can conquer these two counties?"

Liu Yishou was still looking at the map, with his back to Chen Yuankang.

"If you just fight but don't defend, it's really easy." Chen Yuankang said indifferently.

Such a thing seemed to him like going to a widow's house for the night.It couldn't be easier to get a night's sleep, and now he can even do it without spending money.

But to marry a widow home, the difficulty increases exponentially!

So in Chen Yuankang's view, it is not difficult at all to take down only these two counties.

"If Gao Huan sends troops to attack, do you think Liang Jun can hold it?"

Liu Yishou's eyes seemed to be fixed on a certain point on the map, and he was still talking with his back turned.Chen Yuankang understood that the other party already had an idea in mind and just wanted to hear other ideas.

"In the Liang Guofang township system, the governor guards one side and commands the military forces of each state. Generally, the number of troops that can be commanded is between [-] and [-]. Xiahou Kui, who is the commander of the military forces of the seven states, was taken away by Xiao Yan. It is enough to see that Xiao Yan is actually consciously controlling the size of General Fangzhen's leadership.

Several large square towns, including Shudi, Jingxiang, Jiangzhou, Lianghuai, Sanwu, Guangzhou and other places.There is no doubt that we are now the absolute main force in Lianghuaifang Town. "

The so-called counselors, of course, should pay attention to big things, instead of staring at those trivial things all day long.Now Liu Yishou left all those chores to Yang Xiuzhi.Chen Yuankang and others have long been liberated and can study the general trend of the world.

"well said!"

Liu Yishou turned around and clapped his hands.

There is a nursery rhyme in the history books of previous lives that said: "Three Cuisines and two Zhangs are not as good as one Kang", Liu Yishou has now realized that the real great talent is to build a strategic plan from a high place and see far and deep.In the case of not having a golden finger, he is the kind of person who climbs high and looks far.

"I thought that in order to regain the glory of the ancestral land, Xiao Yan must choose a clan, most likely the prince led the troops. After we captured Donghai County and Xiapi County, they sent troops from the flanks, took back Lanling County, and picked peaches."

Where are the flanks?Beihai County of Liang State.

Liu Yishou was not familiar with the name, but he knew where it was.In the previous life, that place was called Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province!

"My lord understands Xiao Yan really deep down. I also think that those Xiao clans will break their heads in order to compete for this expedition."

"Then what do you think, this time, which prince will go out to take command, and which general will assist him?"

Liu Yishou looked at Chen Yuankang with burning eyes and asked.

After going around for a long time, I finally got to the point.

"My lord asked me to collect information about Xiao Yan's sons, and after my research, I got something. This time, the fifth prince Xiao Xu and the sixth prince Xiao Lun may compete for this spot, but Xiao Yan will definitely not give it to them.

As for the reason, the lord should know best when he was in Leyou Garden that day. "

Liu Yishou nodded slightly, Chen Yuankang was very correct, these two people probably belonged to the ranks of "rebellious sons" in Xiao Yan's heart now.

"The seventh son, Xiao Yi, has powerful subordinates and is deeply afraid of Xiao Yan. If he participates in the battle to regain the ancestral land, if he succeeds, he will gain great prestige. I think that Xiao Yan may have to change the crown prince at that time."

It is impossible to change the prince, but Liu Yishou feels that Xiao Yan will definitely not give Xiao Yi the task of being in command.

"Among all the disciples, the eighth son Xiao Ji is the most favored, and he has a very good reputation in Jiankang. Regardless of whether this is pretending or not, in fact, Xiao Yan is probably already cultivating him as a prince."

Chen Yuankang said calmly.

Liu Yishou was shocked. He knew the answer because he had seen the result.However, Chen Yuankang was able to deduce so many things through a little bit of clues, and he was indeed quite capable.

"After Xiao Tong's death, the ideal prince is no longer here. Xiao Yan actually didn't like Xiao Gang as the prince, but he was forced to do so. Besides, he has no intention of abdicating at all. It's okay to let Xiao Gang be a shield. not good.

Once Xiao Yan is going to abdicate, Xiao Ji will definitely be arranged to take over in the previous two years.I thought about it for two years, Xiao Yan should send Xiao Ji to some places to practice in other towns, and after he is familiar with the government affairs, he will be transferred back to Jiankang, and it will be time for him to become the prince.

As for the location, the climate in Guangzhou is hot, and it is very bitter there.Jingxiang is already the territory of Xiao Tong's descendants, and Xiangzhou belongs to Xiao Yi, so... probably it can only be the land of Shu. "

Chen Yuankang got the correct answer through the method of elimination.Liu Yishou knew very well that Xiao Ji went to Shu in the end, until the Hou Jing Rebellion.

"In order to pave the way for Xiao Ji's crown prince, Xiao Yan is very likely to let Xiao Ji be in command."

Chen Yuankang added.

Liu Yishou nodded slightly, this can be regarded as a hero who sees and agrees.The main reason is that Xiao Yan's sons are too bad. Xiao Yi, the only one-eyed dragon with some strength, is still hated by Xiao Yan.Xiao Ji, as the eldest son among the dwarfs, is very likely to be selected.

But this is only a small problem. The key question is, who is the lieutenant general?

Xiao Ji didn't have the ability to lead the army, he just represented the banner of Liang Guo's clan and commanded the battle, and there were others.

"Lan Qin is in Zhongli, which is the strategic support for the entire Huaibei. If he leads his troops away, the two Huaihe Rivers will really become our world. It is impossible for Xiao Yan to joke about this kind of thing."

Chen Yuankang was counting his fingers again.

Zhongli's significance to Lianghuai cannot be overemphasized.Otherwise, when Liang Guo was still on the rise, it would not have fought fiercely with the Northern Wei Dynasty in Zhongli.

"Chen Qingzhi can almost be regarded as the only leader of the army that Xiao Yan trusts 100%. Chen Qingzhi must be guarding Stone City, and he can't take a single step."

Chen Yuankang ruled out another one.

"Xia Houkui is still under observation, and he is currently suppressing bandits in Fujian. Xiao Yan will only regain his trust in him after this matter is over. At least his life will not be too easy for the next few years."

This removes one more.
