There were many courtiers in the imperial study, and when they heard Yang Guang's words at this moment, their faces were instantly filled with astonishment.

Even Yang Su and Yu Wenshu are the same.

They really didn't expect Yang Guang to pass on such a will.

You said that it might be possible for you to quietly send a master into the four northern counties to pick people back, but now you are blatantly sending a team to pick them up, and you also claim that the four northern counties are the land of the Great Sui....

Isn't this a clear scolding of the Great Sui for being shameless?

How could he see that there was danger, he divided the four northern counties, and when he saw that there was no danger, he unilaterally announced that the four northern counties were of the Great Sui!

"Your Majesty, there is obviously a reason why the Murong Kingdom's army was defeated in Licheng County, and the minister is worried that once he sends a team, it will anger Meng Fan.... And the minister heard that Meng Fan's side has a large army stationed in Wuyang County, and my soldiers of the Great Sui want to enter.... I'm afraid it's a little difficult, so it's better to think of another way....."

After a short silence, after thinking about it, Yu Wenshu still stood up.

Now that the situation has finally stabilized, he is really worried that Yang Guang's brain will be hot and he will send troops to attack Meng Fan again, and then his grandson Yuwen Chengdu will have to bear great pressure.

"Murong Guo was defeated? Hmph! That's because the nine-headed monster invited by Murong Guo didn't appear! If there were no nine-headed monster, I, the Great Sui Tianbao General, would be able to easily destroy that Murong Jie! In this way, these four northern counties are still my Great Sui land! Then Meng Fan is still a minister of the Great Sui on his face, am I wrong?"

Sure enough, what are you afraid of.

As soon as Yu Wenshu said it, Yang Guang immediately dismissed it.

He even added as a matter of course, "As long as I have the following holy decree, saying that Meng Fan has a merit in retreating from the enemy, everything can be solved!"

"This ....."

Hearing this, the imperial study became silent again.

If I am not mistaken, Yang Guang also made a decree ten days ago, making it clear that as long as the army of Murong Guo could arrest Meng Fan and Cheng Yanjin, he would give 10,000 taels of silver....

Now isn't that the other way around, slapping yourself in the face?

It's a pity that the courtiers who stand again are very heavy-minded, and they are not willing to touch their heads again at this time, so they all chose to remain silent in the end.

That's it

Half an hour later, a holy decree came from the palace!

"From now on, the Great Sui will take back the four northern counties, and the county of Licheng County will make Meng Fan meritorious in resisting the enemy, and give him a thousand taels of silver as a reward....."

......

At this time, the east has already revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly,

All the people in the four northern counties had just gotten up, and this night was the most restful night they had ever slept on.

Because Licheng County sent two large armies, one to the north of Yan County and the other to guard the mountain pass of Wuyang County.

One south and one north completely protected the four northern counties.

They don't have to worry about Murong Guo's army anymore!

"Lao Zhang, you said that Lord Meng's army has already gone to the north of Yan County, so when will he send his courtiers to take over us?"

At this time, in the county seat of Yanjun, the old man who sold steamed buns re-entered the streets and began to set up stalls.

Next to him is an old man who sells tofu brains.

In the hearts of these people, Meng Fan has already become their new master, and now he is about to officially establish a country.

"Who said it wasn't? Yan Wang Luo Yi never came back after his defeat, and it was not a matter of leaving an empty county mansion!"

The old man who sold tofu brains sighed beside him.

If nothing else, even if it's a small village, you have to choose a village chief, right?

It's okay to say that there is no person in charge of this huge county for a day or two, but it doesn't matter if it takes a long time.

"I heard that King Yan seems to have defected to Lord Meng, I don't know if it's true or not, if only he could come back!"

Sighing and looking at his bun, the old man spoke again.

"Who said it wasn't.... At the beginning, in order to protect Yan County, the 100,000-strong army finally fought only 3,000 men and horses, and the young Paul Cheng was also calculated by the demons, and the situation was too tragic...."

Recalling the incident a few months ago, Lao Zhang, who bought tofu brains, was also emotional.

It would be good if the reinforcements of the Great Sui arrived early in that war, but it's a pity .... No ifs!

Although King Yan was defeated and left in the end, the people of Yan County did not have any intention of blaming Luo Yi.

Just because, the Luo family did their best!

"Lao Zhang... Lao Zhang.... Hurry up and press the handprint!"

Just when the two old men were sighing with emotion, there was a sudden shouting in the distance.

"By mudra, what mudra?"

When they heard this, the two of them were stunned.

"Our lieutenant chief is going to Licheng County to petition, about the matter of imploring Lord Meng to establish a country as soon as possible!"

Look again, there is a middle-aged man who walked all the way and did not miss any of the people who set up stalls.

"Petition? So what are you waiting for...."

Hearing the truth, the two old men immediately put down the things in their hands and followed.

......

This scene didn't just happen in Yan County,

Similar situations are also playing out in Zhuo County, Hejian County, and other counties in Qizhou Prefecture.

Many people had one idea, "Please ask Meng Fan to come out and preside over the overall situation!"

.......

As everyone knows, just when those village chiefs were about to rush to Tianwolf Pass one after another,

The Great Hall,

Meng Fan frowned, rubbed his eyebrows,

In front of him was a map of the four northern counties, marked with four counties and eighteen counties!

In the main hall, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, etc. are all there.

They looked at the map with a thoughtful look.

"Childe, it is better to let King Yan return to garrison the county guard of Yan County, he is already familiar with the land of Yan County, and there should be no problem in controlling it!"

In a moment, Wei Zheng took the lead in standing up, breaking the existing silence.

"Yan County is naturally him, but what about the other three counties? What about the remaining eighteen counties?"

Looking up, a trace of helplessness flashed in Meng Fan's eyes.

I thought that I had a lot of talents under my command and could do everything with ease.

But since he won the four northern counties, he realized that the talents under his command were not enough, and the gap was not ordinarily large.

As far as the eye can see, there are only four or five ministers in the full hall..... The rest are fierce generals with strong combat power!

You expect them to govern the county, no doubt no different from a blacksmith studying.

And now that more than two million people have poured into Licheng County, Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, and Fang Xuanling are already too busy to take a break, how can they be sent to other counties and prefectures to preside over the overall situation?

"Childe, for the sake of today's plan, perhaps only by recruiting some talents can we solve the dilemma!"

Faced with such a predicament, Wei Zheng was also helpless.

It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and the lack of manpower is really a hard injury.

"Recruiting?"

Meng Fan raised his eyebrows, he didn't think about it, he just ..... I'm afraid it's too late!

"By the way, where has Su Cheng gone now?

However, frowning, he suddenly thought that if Su Cheng came back, he would be able to preside over a county!

Du Guo is coming back, and with his talent, he can also preside over a county, so doesn't it mean that he can solve the urgent need?

As for the remaining counties, we can only figure out a way later.
