Feng Ying and Luo Li'er's response made Liu Yu feel extremely stunned: "What, don't you want to?" ”

"No, it's not...... Feng Ying buried Jiaojing in Liu Yu's arms and whispered: "I know that it is difficult for me to enter the hall of elegance, I just hope to be able to pour tea and pour water, add fragrance and quilts by your side and wait for the princess, and I will be satisfied!" ”

"We don't need any status, we just need to be by your side and a few ladies to serve you." If you want us, we're always there for you! ”

"Fool, since you are all willing to be my woman, why don't you be my woman in a dignified manner?" Liu Yu kissed the two rare beauties in his arms lovingly, and his heart was also sour, they actually looked down on themselves so much, people couldn't help but feel pity.

"Because we don't deserve it." Feng Ying and Luo Li'er whispered: "We are not as good as the princesses in any aspect, and we are low-status maids, we don't want to cause you trouble." ”

"Fool, what's not worthy of this, I like your people, not your property, status, or whatever." Liu Yu said in an unquestionable tone: "Be obedient and obedient, be my woman with peace of mind!" ”

"You...... You're so domineering. Feng Ying said faintly: "I don't understand, how can you like us?" ”

Liu Yu smiled slightly and said, "If you like it, you like it, do you need any reason for this?" ”

"Of course we need to, we don't have any confidence in ourselves." Gurier also said in a faint tone.

Liu Yu looked at the second daughter steadily. said softly: "Of course, your appearance is not as good as Hongchang, your temperament is not as good as Yan'er, and your talent is not as good as Yan'er." The family background is not as good as Ting'er, and the martial arts are not as good as Lihua, but you also have attractive places......"

Feng Ying, who let go of the big stone in her heart, glanced at Liu Yu, pouted and feigned: "Are you praising us, or are you hitting us?" It's really ......."

Liu Yu laughed dryly, stopped his clumsy relief, and directly expressed his infatuation with his hands.

In the coquettish-panting. Feng Ying and Luo Li'er pushed Liu Yu away together, and said with a look of spring-love: "We can't do this, wait for the princess and them to nod." We...... We can let you do whatever you want......" After speaking, Liu Yu was only left with a few silky eyes, but the person flew away.

Looking at their graceful backs gradually moving away, Liu Yu couldn't help but sigh quietly: Haven't they told Luan Fengwei that I am going to officially establish the Crystal Palace in this time and space?

There was a matter of Feng Ying and Luo Li'er. Liu Yu was not interested in continuing to visit the Chang'an Palace. And now Liu Yu and the others must not have gotten up yet. Bore, he can only cope with business!

When he came to a certain building in the palace that was requisitioned as the temporary office of the Western Expeditionary Army, Liu Yu found that Guo Jia, Zhuge Jin and other civil servants were all present, and he knew that they must have not slept all night.

"Wait for the ministers, see the prince!" After seeing Liu Yu, everyone in the hall came over to salute.

"It's all forgiven!" Liu Yu asked everyone to get up, sat straight on the main seat, and then asked, "Have the results been counted?" ”

Guo Jia took a step forward and said, "Back to the prince, in the battle of Chang'an, more than 16,000 people were injured in our army. More than 4,700 people died. More than 8,500 Cao troops were killed and 1,255 were captured. ”

He frowned slightly. Liu Yu asked, "Are there any important people in the captured Cao army?" ”

"Because there are so many things, the captives are just being held and have not been interrogated. Whether there are important people among them, Weichen does not know. Speaking of this, Guo Jia's tone changed and said: "However, Cao Cao's own brother Cao De has fallen into the hands of our army. ”

Liu Yu was a little surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Didn't most of Cao Cao's relatives go out of the city under the protection of Tong Yuan, and how did Cao De get captured by our army?" ”

"Cao De was not captured by our army." A hint of amusement appeared on Guo Jia's face: "He took the initiative to throw himself into our army, saying that he was going to move to Luoyang and become a shunmin under the rule of the prince!" ”

Liu Yu was stunned and speechless! Although I heard Chang Feng say a few days ago that Cao De had run away from home and wanted to go to Luoyang, Liu Yu always thought that he just missed the prosperity of Luoyang, and he didn't expect Cao De to take refuge in himself, let alone expect that he would openly do this kind of behavior similar to betraying the family at this moment.

Sighing slightly, Liu Yu said to Guo Jia: "Since this is the case, then you should arrange his future life well, don't treat him badly!" After Guo Jiaying was, Liu Yu asked again: "How are those officials of the Chang'an puppet court now?" ”

"Basically, important people and their families have broken through with Cao's army, and most of the middle and low-level officials have fallen into the hands of our army."

Liu Yu thought for a while and said, "You carefully examine it, all the former pseudo court officials who are willing to take refuge in our side will be granted corresponding official positions according to their abilities. And those who were loyal to Cao Cao, together with his family, were sent to the border of Youzhou to open up wasteland. The officials in charge of this matter received orders one after another, and after the hall was quiet, Liu Yu asked again: "Has the granary of the treasury in the city been counted?" ”

Zhuge Jin, who is in charge of such affairs, said: "The treasury and granaries in Chang'an City have not been destroyed, because the number is too large, and they are still being cleaned up. ”

Liu Yu raised his eyebrows because of his sentence "too much", and said, "According to your estimate, how many should there be?" ”

Zhuge Jin thought for a while before he said: "According to Weichen's estimates, the grain stored in the four large granaries in the city is at least more than 160,000 stones, which is enough for the 600,000 soldiers and civilians in Chang'an City to eat for half a year. However, there is not much left in the treasury, and the gold, silver, copper, coins, silk, silk and satin, etc., will not add up to more than 200,000 taels of silver. ”

Liu Yu guessed that Cao Cao should be a little reckless, so he was not puzzled by this, and continued to ask: "Have you counted the treasury and the imperial palace in the palace?" How's the catch? ”

"The materials in the treasury and the inner government are being counted, but according to Weichen's estimates. The combined value of the two places would not exceed 500,000 taels of silver! ”

Shaking his head, Liu Yu motioned to his subordinates to continue to deal with affairs, and then said to Guo Jia: "You come with me." I have something to say to you. ”

took Guo Jia into a small room next to the office, and after sitting down face-to-face, Liu Yu didn't speak immediately, just stared at him. Guo Jia was furious by Liu Yu's heart, and after laughing a few times, he asked, "Lord Wang, is there anything wrong with Weichen?" ”

It was not what he expected. Liu Yu really nodded and said, "Yes, I think you're very wrong!" ”

Guo Jia was slightly stunned. said with a smile: "Please also ask the prince to make it clear." ”

Liu Yu frowned and said, "Since you set out on the expedition, something has been wrong with you, you have always been unrelenting, and even your duties as a military advisor have been neglected. When the offensive of our troops was blocked. I don't know how to come up with an idea. Tell me, why is that? ”

Guo Jia was stunned again, and then said to Liu Yu with a face full of shame: "The prince forgives the sin, this is really the fault of the minister......

Liu Yu waved his hand to interrupt him and said, "Don't apologize to me, I just want to know why?" ”

On such a private occasion, Guo Jia didn't make much politeness, he blushed slightly and said, "Lord Wang." Do you know that Wechen is going to be a father! ”

"What? What do you mean. Is one of your wives and concubines pregnant? Liu Yu was taken aback, because he had heard Hua Tuo say that Guo Jia's body was too weak and basically would not have offspring, could it be that his wife and concubine brought him a hat?

Guo Jia, who was immersed in happiness, didn't notice Liu Yu's face, he said with a wistful smile: "There was once a doctor who said that his ministers were weak and childless, but 'there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great', and Weichen can't be sorry for his ancestors." After many treatments, I later got a glimmer of hope from Lord Hua Tuo. After Weichen came back from Jizhou a few months ago, Lord Hua Tuo handed over the medicine that took two years to be prepared. Weichen tried it, and it worked, and on the eve of the expedition, he learned the news that his wife was pregnant. ”

I see, this Hua Tuo didn't say it clearly, causing me to misunderstand Guo Jia's wife and concubine...... However, the news of the henchmen and cronies really made Liu Yu overjoyed, and he couldn't stop congratulating him.

Guo Jia smiled and appreciated, and after a while, he suddenly said with a straight face: "Lord Wang, Weichen thinks that you can also ask Lord Hua Tuo for such a medicine to eat, no matter what, your family business must also be inherited by someone!" ”

Liu Yu naturally knew what Guo Jia meant, but in fact, this was also what many of his subordinates were worried about. They were always afraid that Liu Yu would have no descendants to inherit Liu Yu's career, and if there was nothing to do, they hinted that Liu Yu would take more concubines and take more medicine, so that Liu Yu had no temper. After hearing Guo Jia say this again this time, Liu Yu could only roll his eyes again and change the topic: "I'll talk about this later." By the way, now that our army is in good form, why don't you go back to Luoyang to accompany your wife first! ”

Guo Jia shook his head resolutely and said, "No, Weichen can't forget his public because of his personal interests, and ask the prince to take back his fate." Wechen will never neglect his duties again, please don't let Wechen go back to Luoyang! ”

Liu Yu glanced at him and said, "Okay, but you have to think clearly, this battle may be fought for a long time, maybe after you return to the division in triumph, your children will be born!" ”

Guo Jia smiled and said disapprehantly: "It's okay, anyway, everything at home has been arranged, and even the child's name Weichen has already been given." ”

"Oh, all the names are ready?" Liu Yu asked with interest: "What's it called?" ”

Guo Jia said in high spirits: "If it's a boy, it's called 'Guo Yi', and if it's a girl, it's called 'Guo Yi'." ”

Guo Yi? This name is quite familiar, it seems to be the name of Guo Jia's son in history. Thinking of this, Liu Yu couldn't help but say: "According to what this king has seen, there is no doubt that this fetus must be a boy!" ”

"Thank you for your auspicious words!" Obviously, the patriarchal ancients liked to hear such words.

"Since you've decided to stay, you have to be careful, don't lose face in front of your unborn son?"

"Please rest assured, Weichen promises that there will be no more problems!"

Liu Yu, who was assured by Guo Jia, nodded and said, "Very good, then let's talk about how to fight next, right?" ”

Guo Jia opened a topographic map of Yongzhou, and said while pointing: "At present, our army can only be said to have just entered Yongzhou, and the two counties of Beidi and Fengyi in Yongbei, the four counties of Tianshui, Fufeng, Longxi, and Anding in Yongxi, as well as the entire territory of Liangzhou, are still in the hands of Cao Jun. ”

Liu Yu took a closer look. It was immediately confirmed that this map was a military topographic map made by Jinyiwei, because no civilian map would also show the strength of the city. He pointed to the small print next to Tianshui City on the map and said, "Is there still '15,000 cavalry and 33,000 foot soldiers' in Tianshui City now?" ”

Guo Jia shook his head. said: "There are not so many anymore! According to our intelligence, as early as when Cao Cao set out to conquer Liangzhou, 10,000 cavalry had been drawn from Tianshui City. After the end of the war, Cao Cao not only did not return these soldiers and horses, but when he attacked Hanzhong, he transferred 20,000 foot soldiers from Tianshui. Now the whole county of Tianshui can withstand the strength of a war, including the township warriors of each county. It will definitely not exceed 20,000! ”

Liu Yuqu tapped his fingers on the wooden case, and asked thoughtfully: "Is this the case in all the states and counties under Cao Cao's rule?" ”

"Yes."

"Don't you think it's a little strange?" Liu Yu frowned slightly and said, "If this is the case only in the counties of Yongzhou, it is normal. But Liangzhou has just fallen into the hands of Cao thieves. He couldn't have just transferred his troops and horses away and ignored the instability in the counties, right? ”

Guo Jia nodded in agreement: "This is indeed a little strange. Originally, Cao Cao appointed Cao Hong, one of the 'Five Sons' Good Generals, as the 'Zhenxi General' to lead Xiping Taishou, and let him lead an army of 50,000 to Xiping County, which is located at the throat of East and West Liangzhou. But after he got the news that the prince was about to attack Yongzhou, he actually transferred back Cao Hong and the army he led. And all the horses in Liangzhou were raided. Whether it's a horse or a warhorse. It was still a stallion and a young horse, and all of them were transported back to Yongzhou. ”

Liu Yu's heart jumped, and he hurriedly asked, "Where are this large number of horses in captivity now?" ”

"According to Jinyiwei, after our army captured Tongguan, Cao Cao ordered people to drive those horses into Hanzhong."

"Cao Cao has such an abnormal behavior, haven't you thought about why?" Liu Yu said with some dissatisfaction. Could it be that after his wife became pregnant, he also became sluggish?

Guo Jia scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Actually, Weichen has also thought about why. But even Weichen himself couldn't believe the conclusion, so he didn't dare to tell you! ”

He said so. Liu Yu became interested and asked, "Is the conclusion you came to ridiculous?" Come and hear it! ”

"Weichen feels that Cao Cao seems to be giving up Liangzhou and Yongzhou, and is ready to take Hanzhong with the determination to break the cauldron and sink the boat!"

Liu Yu looked at Guo Jia, whose face was slightly red, dumbfounded, and was really speechless for a while. Such a conclusion is truly incredible! Although Hanzhong is a big granary in the world, if it comes to development potential, it is far less than Yongliang Erzhou, how can Cao Cao give up the big and take the small?

"Actually, there is a basis for Weichen to think so." Probably Liu Yu's expression made Guo Jia feel a little embarrassed, and he took the initiative to explain: "The territory of Yongliang Erzhou can be described as a flat river, and there is no danger to defend. And the strength of Cao's army and our army is far apart, if Cao Cao stubbornly defends Yongliang, then defeat is only a matter of time. Instead of this, it is better for the strong man to break his wrist, concentrate all his forces, take Hanzhong as soon as possible, and then rely on the dangerous terrain around Hanzhong to defend our army. You can even find an opportunity to go south and eat Yizhou, and by that time, Cao Cao will have the strength to fight with our army again! ”

"Do you think it's possible?" Liu Yu interrupted Guo Jia's words with a little amusement, and said: "At present, Cao Jun has fallen into a bitter battle in Hanzhong, if our army adds a fire behind him, then he will not say that he will take Hanzhong, I am afraid that even self-protection will be a problem at that time!" ”

Guo Jia was speechless for a moment, and Liu Yu didn't want to embarrass him more, so he immediately changed the topic and said: "Okay, let's not speculate about Cao Cao's thoughts, the most important thing at the moment is to eat Yongliang Erzhou!" Do you have any good plans? ”

After Guo Jia coughed a few times, Zhengse said: "According to Jinyiwei's intelligence, the Cao army that remains in Yongliang Prefecture is mainly divided into three major forces. Weichen thinks that our army can be divided into one main and two times, and attack separately to break the three resistances! ”

"Tell me about it!"

"One is the chariot general appointed by the Chang'an puppet court and the commander of the Beidi Taishou Chariot, the Beidi and Feng Yi two counties in Yongbei are under the control of this person, and its troops are about 30,000. Although this person is Cao Cao's sworn friend, his personal ability is ordinary, and there are no particularly outstanding talents under his command, so the prince only needs to send a general to lead 50,000 troops, and he will be able to attack him with one blow! ”

"The second is Cao Cao's son-in-law, Hu Ben Zhonglang will embroider Zhang. This person was originally ordered to lead an army of 80,000 out of Tianshui to attack Hanzhong through Wudu, but he was blocked by Yang Ren and Yan Pu under Yangping Pass. After learning the news of our army's attack on Yongzhou. He returned to Yongxi and took control of Tianshui and Longxi counties. I don't know why, this person has a hatred for our army and it. Moreover, he himself is one of Tong Yuan's two major disciples, and his martial arts are so high that he can be compared with several generals of our army, plus there are Xu Yu as military advisors in his army, which will bring great trouble to our army. I hope the prince will be cautious! ”

"The last one is Han Sui, who was named the hereditary 'Marquis of Wuwei' by Cao Cao in the name of the pseudo-imperial court. After Cao's army withdrew from Liangzhou, he nominally mastered the entire territory of Liangzhou with the help of his son-in-law, 'General Huqiang Zhonglang', who led the Xihai Taishou Yan Xing. However, the army he was able to control was only about 50,000. Weichen intended General Ma Chao to lead an army of 50,000 to attack this place. I believe that with the huge influence of the Ma family in Liangzhou, it will not be a big problem to eat Han Sui! ”

Liu Yu looked at him with some doubts and said, "You don't want to divide your troops into three ways and attack these three forces separately, right?" ”

"How so?" Guo Jia laughed and said, "If Weichen really did this." Then Cao Cao is afraid that he will return to the division from Xiegu Pass to attack Yongzhou and cut off my retreat. When the time comes, even if Weichen dies, he will not be able to bear this responsibility! ”

Now Liu Yu was finally relieved, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case." Then tell us about your plans! ”

"Yes. Rajah! Guo Jia didn't sell Guan Zi, and said directly: "The main army is commanded by Xu Huang, Tai Shici and Wei Yan are deputy generals, Weichen and Lu Su are military divisions, and they lead 100,000 troops to attack Zhang Xiu in the west. Once Zhang Xiu is destroyed, he can enter Hanzhong through Yangping Pass, cooperate with Zhang Lu's department, and encircle and annihilate Cao's army! ”

"Wait......" Liu Yu interrupted Guo Jia. said: "It is enough to attack Zhang Xiu in the west with Lu Su here, you still stay in Chang'an." It's time to sit in the center! ”

With Guo Jia's cleverness, he naturally knew that Liu Yu was sympathetic to him, and he was very moved to get up and salute Liu Yu and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang!" ”

"Sit down!" Liu Yu waved his hand disappreciatively and said, "You go on." ”

"The Northern Route Army was led by Ma Chao as the main general, several of his brothers were deputy generals, and Fa Zheng was the military division, leading 50,000 troops to attack Che Guan. After its destruction, if its own losses are not large, it can attack Liangzhou through stability. If not, you need to return to Chang'an to replenish your troops. The Southern Route Army was led by Zhao Yun as the main general, and Huang Xu was the deputy general, leading 30,000 troops to feint and attack Xiegu Pass. If you have the opportunity, you can also eat it. ”

Liu Yu thought about it for a while and felt that there was no problem, so he said, "Just do it." I'll write you a few warrants for the redeployment of troops, and you can take them and give them to the relevant personnel. ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!"

###########################################################

Two days later, the repaired armies set off one after another, and after Liu Yu handed over all the things to Guo Jia and Zhuge Jin to deal with, he accompanied Liu Yu and them to go out to play!

To Liu Yu's surprise, there were several places of interest near Chang'an in this era that he had never heard of before. In the past ten days, they not only played these scenic spots such as "the former site of the Qin Palace" and "Emperor Wu's training ground", but also climbed Huashan to watch the sunrise.

Although life is quite free, there are also a little regrets. That's Feng Ying and Luo Li'er. These two women, who were eager to dedicate themselves to Liu Yu before, actually rejected Liu Yu when Liu Yu was about to eat them. said that he wanted the sisters to be of one heart, and asked Liu Yu to quickly get Gan Meiyu and Lai Ying'er, who was still practicing martial arts in Luoyang. also said that they would serve Liu Yu together at that time, so that he could enjoy boundless-glamorous-blessings......

When Liu Yu and his entourage went to Lishan to see the ruins of "Afang Palace" and were about to soak in the hot springs to relieve fatigue, Guo Jia actually sent a letter urging him to return to Chang'an, saying that there was an urgent matter to report. Looking at Liu Yu's unfinished expressions, Liu Yu was very generous and let them all stay to have fun, while he returned to Chang'an alone.

After ordering someone to take Guo Jia to the study, Liu Yu asked straight to the point without waiting for him to see the ceremony: "What's wrong, you are urging me so urgently?" ”

"Actually, there is nothing important, it's just that there are a few battle reports for you to see!"

Guo Jia's answer almost made Liu Yu go berserk, if he didn't clearly know that Guo Jia was not the kind of fat guy who dared to find an excuse to bluff him back to Beijing because he was jealous of his leisure, he was afraid that he would directly beat Guo Jia. But even so, Liu Yu knew from Guo Jia's expression that the matter should not be too important, so he glanced at him angrily, waved his hand and said, "I won't look at it, just talk about the important content!" (To be continued.) )
