Chapter 59: Eleven Years of Great Cause
"Second brother doesn't have to be like this, but from now on, you have to study harder." The Infant Yang King smiled and comforted.
King Yingyang has no children under his knees, and once he dies, he will naturally be succeeded by Gao Jianwu, so he must start paving the way for Gao Jianwu, otherwise with his strong character, even if he is desperate, he will also lay down Fuyu City.
"The younger brother has limited ability and can't afford it, and the eldest brother must live a long life."
"Nonsense, for my brother's own body, how can I not be clear, and the burden of Goguryeo will fall on you in the future." The Infant Yang King said sharply.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" After saying that, there was another violent cough.
"Big brother, don't be angry, little brother listens to you." Gao Jianwu hurriedly stepped forward to help him stroke his chest and said.
"The general came with the news, in winter, the Great Wall strongholds were pulled out of more than fifty places, although I don't know how the Central Plains people did it, this is meaningless, there is no need to fortify in the winter in the future, so as not to increase casualties, just concentrate the troops in Liaodong City." The Infant Yang King said.
"Little brother understands."
"Fuyu City was originally to suppress the Khitan and other clans, and it is not a pity to lose it, after three years of war, we just need to recuperate well, and we are strong, so that others dare not bully."
"Uh-huh!"
"Second brother, you have a gentle temperament, and you are the king of Shoucheng, so I am still very relieved to be a brother." The infant yang king babbled for Gao Jianwu to analyze the future road.
"Eldest brother, you have a good rest, and when you get better, you can slowly teach your younger brother." Gao Jianwu couldn't bear him to be so tired, and hurriedly persuaded him.
"Hmm!" The Infant Yang King thought about it, and it was not good to let him accept too much at once, so he nodded slightly, and then let the attendant carry him away.

"In February this year, Wang Suba, a native of Shanggu (now Yi County, Hebei), rebelled, with more than 100,000 people, called the king of Mantian, and the country name Yan. Transferred to Hebei and Shanxi. After attacking Youzhou, the middle stream was killed.
In the same month, Shanggu (now Yi County, Hebei) Wei Daoer revolted, there were more than 100,000 people, called Lishan Fei, the north of the Turks, and turned to fight in Hebei and Shanxi.
The imperial court took Li Yuan, the commander of the guard, as the ambassador of Shanxi and Hedong to comfort him, and undertook the dethronement of the county civil and military officials. The eastern soldiers of the river suppressed the rebel army and went to Longmen (now Hejin, Shanxi) to defeat Wuduaner. Li Keshi took a copy of the news from the Central Plains and read it aloud to everyone in the hall.
Although it was blocked in Liaodong, everyone did not give up paying attention to the information in the Central Plains, but it was very grassy that every time the message came back and forth, it would take several months, after all, they did not have a special stronghold.
"In this way, the Central Plains is even more chaotic." Zhang Zhongjian sighed.
"The faint king deserves it!" Hei Sumei gloated and scolded.
"From the news, it does seem to be getting more and more intense." Li Keshi agreed.
"Alas! It's the common people who suffer, this damn world. Zou Yu frowned and scolded.
People from later generations, where have they seen so many tragic situations, although Zou Yu is getting used to it more and more on the battlefield, and he likes the feeling of being happy and unrestrained, but when he sees the people with yellow faces and thin muscles and hard work in life, he always can't help but feel compassion, so he has always told himself that no matter what, try his best not to let the people under his rule have no food and no clothes.
Many things that have been taken for granted in the eyes of people now, in fact, in Zou Yu's view, it is already very miserable, it should be said that it is a hard life, think about the future generations, there is a day when they don't eat a little meat, and now the people eat meat is a thing that only happens during the New Year's holidays.
If there is a shortage of oil and water, the amount of food will be large, and at the same time, the food will be even more scarce, and the most important thing is that there is no food and clothing for more than 6 billion human beings, so it is too difficult to come up with something to feed a large number of people.
As for the pigtail dynasty being able to feed a population of 100 million, there are not many people who have rebelled in that case, Zou Yuren is mainly due to sweet potatoes, which is also the simplicity of the people, as long as they can survive, they will not think about rebellion. But now sweet potatoes are still in that part of the Americas, so this is also a pipe dream.
"The war in the Central Plains is about to break out, but it's a pity that we are trapped in Liaodong, even if we want to do something, we are powerless." Li Keshi sighed.
"I can't fight with the heroes of the world." Zhang Zhongjian said with a little regret.
The past two years have been quite happy for him, he has encountered big and small battles, and they are all victories, and in addition to the growth of strength, it is unnatural to want to find two similar masters to make moves.
Now Fuyu City only has Qin Qiong's appetite for him, the two of them are five or five, Qin Qiong is powerful in cavalry, and Zhang Zhongjian is better in foot combat, as for Zou Yu, Zhang Zhongjian doesn't want to fight with him, according to Zhang Zhongjian, there is no technical content at all, it is fast, because of the great strength, so the speed is fast, and the continuous splitting is enough.
Therefore, Zhang Zhongjian has suggested that he practice dual weapons, preferably with a blunt weapon, one in each hand, with his strength, it is not good to use a knife, and it takes a lot of effort to retract it when it is stuck, and hitting it with a blunt weapon is the same as a move.
After Zou Yu thought about it, he decided to use the simplest stick, there is no good forging master in Liaodong, but a stick does not require much technical content. The main thing is that he likes the feeling of holding two sticks and pumping wildly. (You can make up for it with your brain, your hands are whipped wildly, your mouth is laughing wildly, and the ground is shaking!) οΌ
Panlong cooked copper eyebrow stick! Two eyebrow sticks, made of wrought copper and refined iron, toughness and hardness, made into a coiled dragon style, not only increase friction, not easy to slip, and the opening of the dragon head is exquisite, can be combined into one, into a long stick of one zhang six.
After Zhang Zhongjian competed once, he would never accompany Zou Yu again, not only him, but even the two Fangzheng brothers were treated the same, so recently he liked to train Liu Renliang.
After discussion, it was decided to set up a stronghold in Youzhou to find out the news of the Central Plains, and it was located in Youzhou, in the name of a caravan, because it was able to smuggle some leather goods from here, so it was not difficult to gain a foothold.

In August, Zou Yu and others, who were busy with the autumn harvest, received another news, Yang Guang toured north, the Turkic Shibi Khan led hundreds of thousands of cavalry to plot an interception, Princess Yicheng sent an envoy to change, Yang Guangchi entered Yanmen (now Dai County, Shanxi) was besieged, the Turks rushed to attack Yanmen, forty-one cities and thirty-nine, directly attacked in front of Yang Guang, Yang Guang listened to the suggestion, urgently recruited everyone in the world to rescue, and finally added Princess Yicheng with a plan, only to deceive Shibi Khan to retreat.
In this battle, Zou Yu heard a familiar and famous figure for the first timeβββ Li Shimin, in the process of this rescue, although he was only taken aside, only said that Li Yuan sent his second son Shimin to lead the troops to rescue the driver, but Zou Yu remembered that Li Shimin began his brilliant life from this time.
