The successive deaths of Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun, as well as Dong Zhuo's remnants' capture of Chang'an to control the government, this qiē was faster than Gao Yi expected, but he was not surprised by this, no matter how much wind and rain he had outside, the most important thing he had to do now was to stabilize the inside, otherwise he would always fight outside, and the backyard would catch fire every day, which would be simply asking for trouble for himself.

What's more, now that Liu Wei has come to Nanyang, if Gao Yi wants to turn this into his own political advantage, he must wait for the opportunity to support Liu Wei to regain the throne, only in this way can a prince with a high reputation like Yuan Shao no longer make any jokes about the establishment of another son of heaven.

But it's easier said than done, Gao Yi understands that this is a road of no return, and what he has to do next is to recuperate, and then connect Ma Teng and Han Sui to start a war with Dong Zhuoyu's party in Chang'an, rescue Liu Xie openly, and then return the throne to Liu Wei.

Fortunately, now Nanyang is garrisoned by 5,000 defenders of Nanyang County, as well as more than 5,000 young and strong recruits recruited by Xun Yu and Fu Yu from the hundreds of thousands of people who migrated to Nanyang, plus the tens of thousands of militia in the area of Nanyang retained by the guerrilla army, a total of 20,000 people, nominally under the command of Yuan Shu, but the actual command is in the hands of Xun Yu and Fu Yu and Xu Yu, and Wen Ping and Wu Anguo are the commanders of this army.

About 30,000 horses in the Sili area, mainly based on Pei Yuanshao's guerrilla army, actually controlled by Guo Jia, originally stationed in the area of Guangchengguan and Taiguguan, after Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang and moved the capital to Chang'an, he gradually extended his power to Hongnong and Hedong, Hanoi, Pingyang, Henan Yin, Guo Jia was ordered by Gao Yi to lead troops into Luoyang, and began to resume production work, intending to firmly control Sili zhì in hand, and later connect with Nanyang and Songshan into a piece, each other is a horn, and gradually encroach on the surrounding areas.

The Songshan men and horses remained with about 30,000 people, of which 10,000 were men and horses who followed Zhou Cang, as well as 10,000 prisoners collected from Liu Pi and Hu Zhen, as well as thousands of personal guard battalions and Jin cavalry soldiers and horses led by Pang De and Qin Fan, which were actually controlled by Xu Shu and explored the movements of the princes in Chenliu, Yingchuan, Runan and other places at any time.

There are also a few prisoners such as Di Mo, Xu Rong, and Hu Che'er who are imprisoned here, and Gao Yi does not kill them or let them go, but just eats and drinks to see when they will surrender.

These 80,000 people, plus Zhao Yun and Sun Jiandianwei's Jin cavalry army stationed outside the city

As for Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Jaw ↓ dǐng ↓ diǎn ↓ Xiao ↓ said, .⊥.⊕os_ (); and others, in the name of taking refuge in Yuan Shao, fought many times with the Black Mountain thieves Yu Poison, Zheng Gu and others in Jizhou, constantly expanding their influence, making Yuan Shao love and hate, Tian Feng took this diǎn into account, and wrote to Yuan Shao in time to explain and dispel Yuan Shao's concerns.

At the same time, Guan Hai also had a big move in Qingzhou, he got the help of the old Yellow Turban general Bian Xi, Taishan thief Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Wu Li, Chang Feng and the pirate Guan Cheng, invincible in the Qingzhou area, captured the state and county, Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiao and several battles with it were defeated, and finally left the official position of Qingzhou Thorn Shi and became a monk, and became a laughing stock in Qingzhou.

But in this way, Gao Yi can't unite with Guan Hai head-on, after all, Gao Yi is now one of the Jiuqing, and Dong Zhuo also appointed Kong Rong as the minister of Beihai before his death, so that he can pacify the rebellion of Guan Hai, although Kong Rong hates Dong Zhuo's chaotic government, but he is really concerned about the matter of Guan Hai, with the influence of the Kong family of Lu State, Kong Rong has been refuted by Wang Xiu, Shiyi, Guan Ning, Bing Yuan, Wang Lie and other Beihai celebrities in a short period of time, and implemented benevolent government in Beihai. For the benefit of the people, for a while, it became a nail, cutting off Guan Hai's power from it, and Guan Hai had to gather people and horses, taking advantage of Liu Bei's main force to follow the princes' coalition army in Luoyang, and attacked Liu Bei's plain county, as a base, echoing Jizhou and Songshan, waiting for the opportunity to fight back to Beihai and drive Kong Rong out of Qingzhou.

Because of the importance of the matter, Guan Hai had to fly a pigeon to Nanyang to ask Gao Yi's opinion, Gao Yi thought about it, but still refused this matter, and ordered Guan Hai to give up the plain county, after all, Gao Yi now has a place for Liu Bei.

"Lord, Liu Bei is the Taishou of Runan, is it a little too high to think of him? He was just a plain order before, and he was suddenly promoted to Taishou, will it cause criticism, besides, this person has a lot of ambitions, when he was in Luoyang, he even clashed with General Sun Jian, if it weren't for the mediation of Princess Wannian, I'm afraid that a fight would be inevitable!" Xu You broke Gao Yi's reverie and said many people's doubts.

Gao Yi didn't speak, his eyes turned to Zhao Yun and Xun Yu: "Brother Yun, among these people, you have more contact with Liu Bei, and you should know more about his personality than others, Wen Ruo, you have also talked to Liu Bei these days, tell me, what kind of character is Liu Bei?"

"No!" Zhao Yun arched his hand, lowered his head and thought for a while, "Liu Bei and his people, as Mr. Xu Yu said, his ambition is indeed not small, I heard that when he and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei Taoyuan formed a righteous alliance, he took the revitalization of the Han family and Kuang to help the world as his own responsibility, and his two righteous brothers Guan Yu Zhang Fei are also invincible, the best among the people, and Liu Bei is Lu Zhi's protégé, the imperial court is at the time of employing people, Liu Bei is talented, the younger brother thinks that he can be qualified for the position of Runan Taishou!"

Gao Yi heard this, but still didn't speak, but looked at Xun Yu and motioned for him to say it too.

Unexpectedly, Xun Yu said loudly: "My subordinates think that Liu Bei can be used for a small time, but not for a big use!"

Everyone present couldn't help but be stunned when they heard Xun Yu's words.

Gao Yi seemed to think of something, but he didn't say anything, but asked with a smile: "What is a small use, what is a big use?

Xun Yu said without thinking: "First of all, my subordinates want to say that Liu Bei's talent is wronged by using him as a guard!

Dian Wei couldn't understand it, and asked Xun Yu rhetorically: "Eh, there is diǎn dizziness, since Mr. said that Liu Bei is not of great use, and now he says that he can govern a state, isn't this also a contradiction? Hehe, I can't imagine that Mr. will make this kind of mistake!"

Regarding Dian Wei's joke, Xun Yu just responded with an indifferent smile: "General Dian Wei only knows one thing but doesn't know the other, Liu Bei can be of great use, but people can't be of great use!"

Dian Wei frowned, so profound, really difficult to understand, probably this is the reason why Xun Yu was entrusted by Gao Yi with confidence to be the general manager of the rear, right?

Xu You walked over with a smile, stood in front of Dian Wei, who was two heads taller than himself, and compared the height gap with Dian Wei with his hand: "It's really wise not in height, I'll give Wen Ruo's words to General Dian Wei You make an analogy, the general can understand, Wen Ruo said that Liu Bei is a tiger, this tiger can not only help the master catch prey, but it is more likely to eat the master as prey!"

Dian Wei heard cold sweat dripping on his forehead: "This is easy to understand, before I joined the army, I saw someone in the mountains raising tigers to catch rabbits for themselves to eat, but one day the tiger suddenly became animalistic, ate the person, and fled into the mountains, I heard that after I heard it, I found the harmful tiger in the mountains, and fought with it, it saw that it couldn't beat me, so it ran away, I chased, but it didn't pay attention, fell down the mountain stream and died!"

Gao Yi couldn't imagine that Xu You's casual analogy would involve such a hidden relationship of Dian Wei, he laughed dryly: "Let's get down to business, Wen Ruo, I have considered your concerns, so I didn't make a proposition, but found everyone to discuss together, since we tricked Liu Bei to Nanyang, we can't support people and don't let people do things and don't give people officials, hehe!"

Xun Yu Zhengse said: "What the lord said is very true, the position of Runan Taishou still has to be given to Liu Bei, what we can do is only to make a fuss about funding his soldiers and horses, this soldiers and horses cannot be the Gao family army, that will arouse Liu Bei's suspicions! So there is a suitable candidate in the hearts of the subordinates!"

Gao Yi blurted out: "Could it be Chen Dao?"

Xun Yu diǎn head: "It's this person! He still has thousands of Black Mountain troops under his command now, except for the left-behind men and horses stationed near Hedong, the rest have been brought to Nanyang, I heard that he still has some of his own left-behind guards in the ancient city of Runan, but the recent growth of Liu Pi and others is bound to covet this place in the ancient city, the lord can meet this person, and let him secretly help Liu Bei pacify the forces of Liu Pi and others, and take the people and horses belonging to the headquarters to Runan first, so that Liu Bei will naturally not suspect us and others, and will do things for the lord!"

Gao Yi laughed: "If Wen Ruo is amazing, you can think of this, I'll go see that Chen Dao, but if he refuses to help, I can't help it!"

Xun Yu smiled: "He won't help him, I'm afraid I'm already waiting for the lord to see him!"

"What?" Gao Yi didn't hear Xun Yu's words clearly, and asked again.

At this time, a soldier came in from outside, and when he saw Gao Yi, he knelt on the ground and said, "Lord, the girl who has been in a coma has woken up!"

"Oh?" Gao Yi heard this, his eyebrows suddenly rose slightly, and he waved his hand to everyone: "That's all for today, I'll go see Miss Ning Xiang first!"

Saying that, Gao Yi got up and went out of the house, and the rest of the people all started to discuss: "What kind of character is this Ning Xiang, who makes the lord so worried?"

Only Zhao Yun was silent, he knew that Ning Xiang was Chen Kun's sister.

It's just that my sister came, but my brother left.

Gao Yi didn't let people accompany him, and walked quickly to the medical hall in Wancheng New Town, but he saw Luoyue standing there from a distance, and when he saw Gao Yi, he first showed a smile on his face, but then he showed a frosty face: "Horse thief, when you come back to Wancheng, you didn't come to see me and your baby daughter first, but came to see a beautiful girl of unknown origin, and said, what is your intention?"

Gao Yi was speechless: "Madam, what can I do, I am not as good as before, I can't wait to split myself into two to use!"

"Brother, is that you?"

At this moment, in the medical hall, a faint but firm voice suddenly came from Ning Xiang.

Gao Yi was slightly surprised, looked sideways into the room of the medical hall, and actually saw Chen Zhizheng standing in front of Ning Xiang's bed in a daze, and the two looked at each other in a daze for a moment.

"I'm not!" Chen Zhi said this, helped his mask, turned around and walked out of the medical hall, completely ignoring the hoarse voice of Ning Xiang behind him:

"No, you are, why don't you admit it? I'm your sister Ling'er!"
