Chapter 1165: Pro-Recruitment
He Lingsi said to Liu Yu with a smile: "Who wants to rob you, there are so many good girls, I will choose one more." But later, you have to seriously help me choose a good daughter-in-law for the debate, otherwise I won't follow! ”
It happened that at this time, the information of the queen to be selected was also brought, so Liu Yu discussed with this fickle woman, and finally Liu Yu made a decision for Liu to decide on the daughter of Fu Wan and Princess Yang'an, which was the twelve-year-old girl named Xi Xi and Fu Shou.
It's not that Liu Yu wants to cultivate Liu Bian's Lori complex, but now Liu Biao is practicing the "Emei Jiuyang Gong" that Liu Yu taught him. This internal martial arts requires that the practitioner must remain a child, otherwise he will never be able to reach the realm of Dacheng. With Liu Wei's qualifications and Liu Yu's help, he will be able to break through in five years at most. At that time, Fu Shou will only be sixteen or seventeen years old, so he won't delay anything!

After lingering with his wives who he hadn't seen for a few days, Liu Yu met with the ministers under Liu Yu's oppression to deal with business.
"Xiangye," Lu Zhi, the imperial lieutenant of the dynasty, said after saluting Liu Yu, "At present, our army is fighting head-on with the two major forces of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao at the same time, and with the full cooperation of Guo Jia and Fu Zhu, as well as the generals, the two armies of Cao and Yuan are separated from Hangu Pass and outside Hanoi, and cannot take a step beyond Lei Chi. But the losses of our army were also enormous. According to the latest reports, more than 11,400 people have been killed on the Hangu Pass line, while more than 16,800 people have been killed on the Hanoi line. The combined number of wounded on both sides exceeded 50,000. ”
I didn't expect that with the help of countless advanced defensive equipment, our army would still have such a large casualty?! What Liu Yu couldn't figure out was that Cao Cao had Tong Yuan, the "King of Guns", to teach him soldiers, so it was not surprising that his army had such a high combat effectiveness, but why did Yuan Shao also have such a sophisticated army? It seems that he really underestimated the heritage and ability of this world's number one family before!
"Did Guo Jia and Fu Zhu send a letter asking for help?"
"Nope."
Liu Yu was relieved when he heard these two words, and waved his hand: "Then don't worry about these two places, let's talk about the situation of Gongsun Zan and Sun Jianjun!" ”
"Xiaguan understands." Lu Zhi replied and continued: "Sun Jian lost because of the defeat of the Shanyue clan in Jian'an County, so he transferred 20,000 infantry troops under Zu Mao. The Jiangdong Army, which was now facing General Zhang Liao across the river, had shrunk its forces and put on a defensive formation. As for the Gongsun Chan army, they were a little troublesome, and they did not attack the city. Instead, they plundered the people everywhere, because they fought with elite cavalry that came and went like the wind, so General Zhang He had not yet found an effective way to deal with them. Fortunately, before the war, we implemented the policy of clearing the wilderness, so Gongsun Zhan's army did not gain much. ”
Liu Yu thought about it. said: "Gongsun Zan and Sun Jianjun will be handed over to Zhang He and Zhang Liao to deal with it with all their powers, we don't have to interfere so much in the rear, I trust their ability!" ”
"Yes, Xiangye." Lu Zhi replied with some emotion.
After learning about the military situation, Liu Yu focused his eyes on You Heng's face. The big farmer, who was in charge of the money and grain in the seven states, said knowingly: "Lord Yu, this year's tax and silver income is only more than 21.62 million taels, a decrease of more than 3 million taels compared with last year, mainly because Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other hostile forces have blocked the border, which has greatly reduced the number of merchants entering and leaving the country. And the grain production was also due to the strong wall and clear field, and only nearly 60 million stones were harvested. ”
Liu Yu asked a little worriedly, "This won't have any bad impact on us, right?" ”
You Heng smiled at Liu Yu. With a little pride, he said: "Please rest assured, this year's tax and grain production alone are enough for post-war reconstruction and the consumption of the soldiers and civilians in the seven states, not to mention that we still have an extremely large amount of money and grain reserves!" ”
Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction. asked Situ Zheng Xuandao: "How is it, Zheng Gong, has the universal education been implemented?" ”
Hearing this, Zheng Xuan replied with some excitement: "At present, we have built 6,463 junior colleges, 821 intermediate colleges, and 125 senior colleges. The enrollment rate of school-age children is above 80%, and we will strive for 100% of the goal! Other than that. The first batch of cadets of 'Xidian Military Academy' and 'Songyang Academy' are about to graduate in the near future, and President Huangfu Song and Dean Guan Ning asked Xiang Ye if he would go to the graduation ceremony of the cadets when the time came? ”
Liu Yu shook his head. smiled: "I won't go, just trouble Zheng Gong to encourage the students on my behalf!" ”
Next, it was the turn of Han Rong, the servant in charge of animal husbandry, to report on the work: "The six large horse farms we built in Youji Prefecture have accumulated about 96,000 war horses, and the proportion of horses in our army is already very high, so now those war horses are still kept in the horse farm, and a lot of forage is consumed every day. And there are many people in the people who are willing to pay a high price to buy a war horse of ours, and the ministers dare not make their own decisions, and ask the prime minister to decide! ”
Liu Yu waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "Sell, why don't you sell it?" ”
"No." Lu Zhi objected: "At present, our army controls two-thirds of the horse sources of the entire Han Dynasty, resulting in a shortage of cavalry for most of the princes' forces. Think twice! ”
Liu Yu nodded and said: "What Taiwei Lu said is very right, according to Liu Yu's estimate, at least forty percent of those war horses will fall into the hands of the princes!" ”
Lu Zhi was stunned and said, "Then why does Xiangye still sell war horses?" Could it be that Xiangye has another clever plan? ”
Liu Yu laughed and said, "It's not a clever plan. The war horses that Liu Yu is going to sell are all leftovers from our army, and their quality is much worse than that of our own use. And after the change of hands by the people, the price of the war horse has at least doubled, and those princes who want to form cavalry may have to pay a very high price, which can be regarded as weakening the opponent in disguise, not to mention that we still have to make money! Ha ha! ”
All the ministers laughed with Liu Yu, and they all came up with ideas to carry out a dark box operation in order to take the opportunity to raise the price of horses. Laughed for a while. Liu Yu continued to deal with the remaining trivial matters, and after he was done, he mercilessly drove away several important ministers who wanted to eat at his house. Ever since Liu Yu invited several heavyweight ministers from the DPRK and the Central Committee to come to his house to eat a meal that was similar to modern dishes made by the chef under the guidance of Liu Yu himself, these greedy guys always came to talk to Liu Yu about things before he started the meal. Liu Yu is tired of it, which is the fundamental reason why Liu Yu went to the dragon vein to cultivate......
###########################################################
"Lu Bu and Wei Zhongdao actually took refuge in Yuan Shao?" Liu Yu couldn't help but be slightly taken aback when he heard Ren Hongchang's report, but after thinking about it, this was not something incomprehensible.
Ren Hongchang frowned, revealing a vicious and cute expression and said, "This Lu Bu and Wei Zhongdao don't know how to do it, the Dong family has already surrendered, but they have joined the hostile forces instead. Husband. We must teach these two traitors a profound lesson! ”
Liu Yu funnily pinched her pink and smooth little face, and said, "Didn't the report say it?" Our army's four masters of the Hanoi defense line, Xu Chu, Zhao Yun, Huang Xu, and Tai Shi Ci, and Lu Bu, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou on Yuan Shao's side, could only have a slight advantage. Moreover, Yuan Shaojun's advance and retreat were measured, and the army was strong, and he never found a chance to give him a fatal blow. In my opinion, this lesson will be very difficult to apply to them! He looked at Ren Hongchang's little mouth that was pursed out of dissatisfaction. Liu Yu smiled again: "If Hongchang is willing to give me a fragrant encouragement, my husband will let out this evil breath for my baby!" ”
To Liu Yu's surprise, Ren Hongchang did not throw himself into his arms and entangle with him, but looked at him with a worried face and said, "Husband, are you going to personally conquer Yuan Shao?" ”
"yes, what's wrong?" Liu Yu was a little strange at her expression.
Ren Hongchang hesitated and said: "I know that my husband has peerless martial arts, but the sword and arrow have no eyes......
Liu Yu didn't know what to say. Although Liu Yu didn't tell them about the many golden fingers he had, he had also demonstrated to them more than once his invulnerable "King Kong Body Protector Divine Skill", but why were they always worried that he would be injured?
“…… If my sister knew that my husband was in danger in order to vent my anger, I would definitely be scolded to death......"
looked at Ren Hongchang's bright eyes with tears. Liu Yu said helplessly: "Okay, okay, it's okay if I don't go!" ”
Ren Hongchang's eyes flashed. Hesitantly said, "Actually, it's not that you can't go......"
Raising his eyebrows, Liu Yu was slightly suspicious, but still asked, "Let's hear it." ”
Ren Hongchang glanced at Liu Yu, buried his head and sobbed and said, "As long as the husband can take our sisters with him, we will protect your ......."
The more Ren Hongchang spoke, the quieter he became, and Liu Yu should not refute looking at her with a smile all the time. After a while. She looked up and glanced at Liu Yu and then quickly lowered her head. Liu Yu shook his head a little amused, and was about to speak. She quickly got into Liu Yu's arms, stared at Liu Yu with eyes full of thousands of honey and ten thousand styles, and whispered softly: "Husband, ......"
Liu Yu's head was dizzy, his heart softened, and he couldn't help but say: "Go together, go together!" ”
Ren Hongchang's eyes flashed with surprise and pride, she kissed Liu Yu fiercely, then stood up and ran towards the door, saying as she ran: "I'll go tell my sister and them the good news!" ”
Liu Yu shook his head and smiled, knowing in his heart that Liu Xuan and Ren Hongchang were most likely like him, and they were both very quiet. Liu Yu's cheekiness is not afraid of outsiders' comments, and his strength is enough to ensure the safety of his woman...... Bring it!
……
This time he went to Hanoi, Liu Yu did not transfer other troops and horses, but only brought his own soldiers to carry the Wei army. After annexing the original Dong Zhuo's "Flying Bear Army", the number of the Beiwei Army has reached 10,000, which is more than enough as reinforcements. Because of the topography, Hanoi City was not surrounded by Yuan Shao's army, so Liu Yu entered the city without much effort.
Seeing that the frustration, Zhao Yun and others who came to greet him were full of shame, Liu Yu couldn't help but smile and said: "You have done a good job, guarding this Hanoi city like a thunder pool, so that Yuan Shao's more than 100,000 elite soldiers and strong generals can't go beyond it, this is something worthy of praise, but why do you have that kind of expression?" ”
"Xiangye, the minister previously said that he would make Yuan Shao lose his troops and generals. Kechen underestimated Yuan Shaojun's strategy, and failed to do his best in a series of calculations, and the minister was ashamed! ”
Liu Yu patted Frustrated on the shoulder. Relieved: "The strategists in Yuan Shao's army not only have the 'Erhu', who has been famous in Hebei for many years, but also Wei Zhongdao, who is known as the 'genius of the world', it is already something to boast about if you can compete with them on your own, what is there to be ashamed of?!" ”
Seeing that Liu Yu's face was slightly relieved, he turned his head to look at Huang Xu, and teased: "How is it, my good apprentice." Don't you get hurt by a tiger without eating tiger meat, right? ”
Huang Xu scratched his head and didn't speak, Liu Yu couldn't help but ask in surprise: "You won't really be injured by Yan Liang and Wen Chou, right?" ”
Huang Xu remained silent. Zhao Yun next to him said: "Back to the master, the junior brother has never fought with the Hebei Second Tiger. ”
Liu Yu was even more curious: "Then why does he look so dead?" Could it be that he found the woman he liked in Hanoi, but the other party was a married woman? ”
Everyone laughed, and Huang Xu also jumped to his feet when he heard the sound and said, "Master, you slandered me." When will I see a married woman? ”
"Then why are you listless?"
Huang Xu was depressed again, and Zhao Yun continued to explain: "The junior brother is unwilling because of the defeat with Lu Bu. ”
"Come on, Lu Bu has the reputation of 'the world's number one general', although it is a bit exaggerated, but his immediate kung fu is really difficult to find opponents, and his halberd moves are deadly, it is already commendable that you can retreat with your whole body." Seeing that Huang Xu was still a little stupid, Liu Yu said again: "You have only been practicing martial arts for eight years, and Lu Bu has been practicing for nearly thirty years." You won't be so arrogant as to think that you are a martial arts wizard who comes out once in a thousand years, and one year of practice can be worth ten years for others, right? ”
Everyone laughed again, Liu Yu looked at Huang Xu, who was blushing from embarrassment, and said seriously: "Life will inevitably encounter various setbacks in the world. But when we face these setbacks, we must not be discouraged and evade, where we fall, we must get up from there, this is what the big husband does! ”
Huang Xu nodded vigorously and said, "The disciple knows that he is wrong, thank you for the teachings of the master!" Then he said proudly: "Actually, Lu Bu is not as powerful as the legend, and I will lose in skill and experience." Give me twenty years, and I'll be able to surpass him! ”
Liu Yu shook his head and sighed: This kid is really shameless! Twenty years later, he was at his peak. But Lu Bu is close to the age of sixteen, isn't he bullying the old man? Alas. The son does not teach, the teacher is lazy, it seems that I will take the time to tell him the traditional Chinese virtue of "respecting the old and loving the young......
Liu Yu was woken up early the next morning, saying that Lu Bu was inviting another battle outside the city gate. took Liu Xuan and them up to the city wall to take a look, hey, what a "Lu Bu among the people": the hair on his head is a pheasant tail golden crown, the body is wearing dragon scale silver armor, the waist is surrounded by a beast-swallowing jade belt, and there is a flying phoenix brocade robe behind him, plus the cold light Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand and the red rabbit dragon horse that stepped off the divine horse, it is really worthy of the "unparalleled Wenhou" who is known as "the heroic talent and praise the heroic".
When I first met, Lu Bu was just a figure in the Innate Great Perfection realm, and he hadn't even stepped into the human level, but he never thought that in seven or eight years, he would have become a peerless warrior at the top of the ground level. When it comes to the strength of the horse, I am afraid that the old third grandmaster of the ground level will be slightly inferior!
"What a hero!" Hearing Cai Yan's admiration, Liu Yu couldn't help but glance at her, and sensing Liu Yu's dissatisfaction, Cai Yan immediately changed the conversation and said: "What's the use of being a hero, it's not my husband's subordinate defeat!" ”
Seeing the interaction between Liu Yu and Cai Yan, Ren Hongchang and Zou Zhiruo both chuckled. Liu Yu said bluntly in Liu Yu's ear: "Husband is really a careful eye! ”
When Liu Yu was about to refute her, Lu Bu outside the city had already seen Liu Yu, and he said loudly: "Liu Yu come out and die!" ”
Liu Xuan smiled and said coldly: "The defeated generals dare to be so rampant?!" ”
Zhao Yuntie blushed and said: "Master, please allow the disciple to fight, even if the disciple throws away his life, let this guy know the fate of insulting the master!" Xu Chu, Huang Xu, and Tai Shici also asked Liu Yu to fight.
Liu Yu was about to appease them, but Lu Bu cut off Liu Yu's words again: "Liu Yu, why haven't you come out yet?" Do you dare not fight with a certain family, or have you used all your strength on a woman's stomach? ”
Lu Bu's words amused Yuan Shaojun behind him, and also annoyed Liu Yu's women. Ren Hongchang's voice sounded on the battlefield: "I didn't expect Yuan Shaojun to be so short of food that he would let a noble person like General Lu eat horse manure in the morning." It is really a sin to make the front of the two armies stink! Looking at General Lu Bu from the Yinu family, you should surrender to our army, don't say anything else. We can take care of the bran! ”
This time, it was Liu Yujun who burst into laughter, while Yuan Shaojun seemed a little silent. When he looked at it with all his eyes, he found that most of the soldiers were flushed, Liu Yu guessed that some of them were angry, and most of them were suffocating!
The earth-shattering murderous aura rushed out from the furious Lu Bu, and he roared violently: "Slut looking for death!" When he had finished the roar, he took a large black bow from the victory hook beside the saddle, and bent it with an arrow. Put.
When the screaming sound of the long arrow breaking through the air reached Liu Yu's ears, the arrow was less than twenty meters away from Ren Hongchang. But Liu Yu didn't plan to make a move. Because Tai Shi Ci had already moved first. With an accuracy that surpassed the missile interception system, the arrow fired by Tai Shici collided with Lu Bu's arrow ten meters away from Ren Hongchang, and a spark bloomed in the sound of gold and iron.
When the two arrows fell down the city gates, thunderous applause and cheers erupted from both sides. But this did not dispel Liu Yu's anger. Especially seeing Ren Hongchang's somewhat pale face, Liu Yu almost wanted to jump off the city and tear Lu Bu apart.
Just when Liu Yu was about to take action, Liu Yu grabbed Liu Yu and said softly: "Calmness is a necessary quality for a handsome person, husband, you have to think twice before doing things!" ”
Zhao Yun also asked Zhan again: "If there is something to do, the disciple will obey him, please let the disciple fight!" ”
Liu Yu thought for a while and said, "You are still inferior to Lu Bu in a single fight, so let's do it, you will fight with Wen Gong and Ziyi." Help your sister take revenge! ”
Zhao Yun, Huang Xu, and Tai Shici glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Obey." ”
Zhao Yun and the others didn't bring any entourage, so they rode out of the city in three horses. Lu Bu glanced at Liu Yu. Then he said coldly to Zhao Yun and them: "Liu Yu himself does not fight, what will you three of your subordinates do when they are defeated?" ”
Huang Xu said with some viciousness: "My master has never been interested in opponents who are too weak!" ”
Zhao Yun rushed before Lu Bu went crazy and said: "General Lu Bu, although the three of us are not your opponents when they fight alone, but you insult my master and sister in front of the two armies, I can't say that we have to give up the dignity of a warrior to fight against you!" Make a move, please! ”
"Shameless" and "What kind of hero is more than victory", with these two roars, two generals galloped out of Yuan Shao's army. Xu Chu said behind Liu Yu: "Xiangye." These two people are the 'Hebei Two Tigers'. The one with a white face like jade is Yan Liang, and the one with a black face and a beard is Wen Chou. ”
It lives up to its name! At this moment, Liu Yute admired the foresight of their parents. At the same time, he also hated their behavior of wanting to sabotage the "New Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu" directed by Liu Yu, and Liu Yu could only secretly pray that Lu Bu's arrogance would prompt him to refuse Yan Wen's help in the war. Unexpectedly, Lu Bu didn't say anything, just looked up at Liu Yu quietly. Liu Yu looked down at him for a while, and said helplessly: "Since you want to die yourself, then Xiangye will fight with you as you wish!" ”
"Don't be a good friend!" Frustrated and persuaded urgently: "How can Xiangye's golden body be in danger!" There are generals in this kind of battlefield duel, why not Xiangye himself? ! ”
Liu Yu and the others were also worried, but they didn't say anything to stop them, Liu Yu knew that they didn't want to leave the impression of "harem politics" on this occasion. Liu Yu said solemnly to Fu Zhu and the others: "I have made up my mind, so you don't need to say much." Then he said softly to Liu Yu and them: "Don't worry, Lu Bu is just a defeated soldier under me, so don't worry." My husband is here to solemnly assure you that I will return safely! ”
Liu Yu didn't say anything, turned his head and ordered Luan Fengwei to take Liu Yu's armor and put it on for him personally. Liu Yu smiled at her, glanced at Cai Yan and the others, and then said to Jian Shuo, the commander of the Wei army: "You take people to guard the city gate, and no one is allowed to leave the city without my order!" ”
"Slaves obey!"
There was a time when Liu Yu was very distressed about the placement of Zhao Zhong and Jian Shuo, but when Liu Yu supported Liu Wei to ascend to the throne, everything was solved. Because Jian Shuo has an invulnerable, almost successful mixed yuan boy skill, and has some experience in commanding 10,000 soldiers and horses, so after He Man was appointed by Liu Yu as the Zhijin Wu in charge of the patrol outside the palace, he naturally became the new leader of the Beiwei Army. And Zhao Zhong, who was one of the ten permanent attendants, was appointed by Liu Yu as the head of the inner house, and he was familiar with the palace, focusing on protecting the safety of the little emperor and the queen mother. Of course, in order not to attract criticism, Liu Yu used supreme mystic skills to give the two of them a small facelift.
After Jian Shuo received the order, Liu Yu summoned Xu Chu to whisper a few words, and then picked up his weapon and rode out of the city. (To be continued)
