Chapter 648 gradually stabilized

Li Duan was dying and could no longer preside over state affairs, so Li Duan found a royal brother of Li Duan, a homeless son of the former prince of Li State, and Li Long helped him to the position of the lord of the country.

This is Dao Anjun of the Li Kingdom, and the fourth lord of the country, Li Long.

Li Long is only six years old, he is an illegitimate child, it is good to say that he is living among the people, but in fact, he was abandoned, and now he has been found back by Li Hui and helped him to the position of monarch, called Dao Anjun.

Dao Anjun is now even a tablet, and it is Li Hui who actually controls the military and political power of Li State.

However, Li Hui is not a person who pays attention to the desire for power, and the Li country is now in chaos, and he has to take care of it, as the ancestor of the Li family.

With the secret help of the lord of the Xia Kingdom, he finally drove Ling Tao out of Canwu City and regained power.

It is estimated that it will take him a few years to make Dao Anjun really take power.

If Li Guo's national strength wants to recover, it will take longer, but Li Hui doesn't want to waste any longer time, he follows in Zhang Xian's footsteps, and needs time to improve his cultivation.

He originally wanted to seconded a few capable ministers to Zhang Xian to help Li Guo restore his national strength, but he also knew that Xia Guo was also short of capable people now, so he was embarrassed to speak.

I had no choice but to pull out one from the eight sons of the Eight Sons.

All the children of the Li family have also been recalled.

Not to mention that Li Hui was busy and anxious, it is only said that Ling Tao led hundreds of thousands of sect members to go straight to the three northeastern cities like locusts crossing the border, and the places where he passed were full of mourning, destroying the scourge in the northeast of the Li country, which basically did not suffer from the baptism of war.

The cold wind is howling, the air is turning into ice, and the cold winter season has arrived in a blink of an eye.

There were several heavy snowfalls, and the earth was silvery white.

Ling Tao had arrived at the Troubled Stone Pass at this time.

In the dilapidated Guancheng, there is almost no complete house, but fortunately, there are many members of the Black Lotus Holy Sect, and they are all blindly loyal people, under the transfer of Han Yu, half of the houses in the Guancheng have finally been repaired, which is enough for the core disciples of the Black Lotus Holy Sect to stay.

But hundreds of thousands of ordinary members of the church were not treated so well, some of them lived in three cities, but most of them had to sleep in the open.

Sleeping in the wilderness in the ice and snow, even those who have cultivated for a long time can't stand it, not to mention that these were originally ordinary farmers or slaves.

In a few days, more than 100,000 people died of hunger and cold, or were bedridden.

But at this time, Liu Guozhong's army, wearing brand new winter clothes, arrived.

300,000 people came overwhelmingly, and the Black Lotus Holy Sect disciples stationed in the three border cities hurriedly abandoned the city and left.

Liu Guozhong recovered the three border cities without much effort, and then waved his army to the stone pass.

Looking back at the wilderness of the entire three border cities, you can see the fallen Black Lotus Sect members everywhere.

Ling Tao brought out hundreds of thousands of sect members, those who had cultivation and ability had survived, after all, they were valued, and those who blindly followed, had low ability, and commanded and shouted and shook their arms, but they couldn't take care of it.

Therefore, in the vast area of the three border cities, there are all people who look sluggish and lie in the ice and snow waiting to die.

They were ruthlessly abandoned.

Grain and materials have been transported into the rocky pass, they have no food, no cotton tents to protect them from the cold, and they have no strength to go back to their hometown, so they can only sit and wait for death.

Liu Guozhong is not a good person, and he has shown mercy if he did not order all of them to be killed.

In fact, Liu Guozhong doesn't want to be a good person, and he doesn't want to be a wicked person at this time, although these people are pitiful, but they are also hateful, and they can't live without rescue, why bother giving them mending knives, as if he killed innocents indiscriminately, and he didn't carry this notoriety.

And the sect members gathered in the Chaotic Stone Pass, there were only more than 100,000 people left, and they could be regarded as the elite of the Black Lotus Holy Sect.

Liu Guozhong led 200,000 people to the outside of the Ranshi Pass and ordered to set up camp, he had no intention of attacking the city.

100,000 out of 300,000 people occupied the three border cities to rectify order, maintain the operation of the government, and stabilize law and order.

200,000 people followed him to the Rocky Pass.

These three cities have a small population, they were swept away by the Black Lotus Holy Sect, half of the dead and wounded, and the food and materials were looted, if it were not for Liu Guozhong who brought a large amount of food for the winter, the people of these three border cities would have to freeze to death and starve to death if they did not leave their hometowns.

Since Liu Guozhong intends to stay here for a long time, he can't make it deserted.

These materials were given to him by Zhang Xian, and some of them were transferred to him by order of Li Hui.

The Zhenwei Army and the Yangwei Army cut down on food and clothing and gave Liu Guozhong grain, grass and materials.

According to Zhang Yu's thoughts, he would not give anything to Liu Guozhong, but he did not dare to disobey Zhang Xiansheng's decree.

Fortunately, Xu Mao explained to him, which made him feel better.

"、、、This is part of Your Majesty's grand strategy, although we are not very rich in materials, but we have to cut down on food and clothing to provide for them. ”

Zhang Yu didn't speak with a cold face, but accepted it.

At this moment, the Zhenwei army has withdrawn all its soldiers and horses to Mochizuki County.

They were ordered to cooperate with the naval army to recover several cities in the north of the river at the mouth of the Li River that had been occupied by the Dongsheng Kingdom.

Block the southbound exit of Dongsheng Country.

And the naughty Yanru had no interest in being the king, so he returned the five northern cities to the Li Kingdom and brought people back to the Cangyue Kingdom.

More than half of the food and materials for this winter came from the supplies of these five cities.

Yanru gave Li Hui a rear supply area.

In addition, the Cangyue Kingdom also surprisingly abandoned its grudges and fully supported the reconstruction of the Li Kingdom.

This is all based on Li Hui's face, of course, Zhang Xian behind Li Hui has a bigger face, and it was Zhang Xian who made a request, and Cangyue Kingdom supported Li Hui.

Zhang Xian fully supports the restoration of the Li State, of course, this is also a step in the grand strategy, the Li State he supports, naturally will not go against him, so with a stable Li State, then the Suli State will be contained, so that he has no other thoughts.

In this way, the entire northeast direction of the Xia Kingdom will be worry-free.

In the northwest and southeast, there are the Wuwei State and the Southern Barbarian State that is about to be seized by Zhao Wen, both of which are vassal states that are friendly with the Xia State, and they are also dependent, so that there will be no war or threat in the surrounding areas of the Xia State within three or five years.

Zhang Xian wanted to take the opportunity to consolidate the interior and develop the national strength.

In the temporary palace of Shunyi City.

Zhang Xian buried his head in the case file.

The copywriting waiting for his approval can bury him entirely, although he doesn't want to be involved in political affairs, but there are some things that he still can't escape.

"This Li Wenhui is really, why did he send a cart of copywriting, which didn't make His Majesty tired. ”

Uncle Tai was helping to sort out the copywriting under the guidance of Xiao Fei, while muttering dissatisfiedly.

"Xiao Fei, you go and invite Mr. Liao. ”

Zhang Xian rubbed his swollen forehead and said to Xiao Fei with a bitter face.

He has been away from Beijing for a while, although it is said that Li Wenhui has full authority to deal with political affairs, but there are some major matters, Li Wenhui does not dare to call the shots, which does not send the backlog of copywriting that urgently needs the king's approval to Shunyi City.

Xiao Fei went to invite Liao Lin, who came to Shunyi City with Zhang Xian, and Wang Yan came to report at this time;

"The Marquis of Jinyang wants to see Your Majesty,"
