In the states outside the Han Dynasty, except for Guishan, there are no stronger enemies, especially in the northeast, Hezhou, Xinzhou, Ningzhou and other regions, even more so, just because of the ten years of great policies, the governors of various states and counties are extraordinary, for example, the pastor of Nahe Prefecture, called Lu Yu, is the son of Xilu Situ.

He was born in the East Palace, both civil and military, living in Hezhou, doing his father's will, doing generous politics, in accordance with the Qin system, and Hezhou set up more Yi Dao, the so-called Yi Dao, is the county seat of the barbarians, and exempted from the tax of the Han Dynasty for two years, to the people under his command, without discrimination, very popular with the people, even, Lu Yu often eats and lives with those barbarians, so that the hearts of the people are returned, within six years, Hezhou has millions of people, countless cultivated land, and more cattle and sheep 100,000.

What's even more rare is that he was able to teach many barbarians here, make them civilized, and recommend them as officials, Hezhou became more and more prosperous in the border fortress, and everyone praised him for having the wind of his father, and the people of the grassland, many fled into He, and the chiefs hated it.

Xinzhou on the side, the state pastor is called Cao Ren, it is said that this person seems to be the brother of Situ Cao Gong, however, he is different from Lu Yu, he did not rely on the strength of the family, from the pavilion chief all the way to the state pastor, whether it is governance, or military, are made a lot of achievements, this person is not smiling, the army is very strict, the same is true of governance, acting fairly, never favoritism, rewards and punishments are clear, and many policies in Xinzhou are implemented very quickly.

In addition to the two of them, there are Zhang Zhao of Ningzhou, Liu Ye of Youzhou, and Cheng Li of Bingzhou, these are not easy to get along with, there is such a group of people, Zhuhu outside the Sai has long retreated for hundreds of miles, and there are almost no Hu people outside the Saizhou, and the merchants have to travel far away to trade with them, and those who are unwilling to leave have also become vassal states of the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, when he heard that the northern and southern armies had descended, Hezhou Mu Lu Yu was a little confused, looking at the edict in his hand, he really couldn't figure it out, what did the northern and southern armies do here, there were no enemies outside the Saiwai at all, at most there were some thieves, most of these thieves were Han Chinese, who had committed crimes in the border counties and escaped, and to deal with some thieves, they had to use the northern and southern armies, isn't this an exaggeration?

Even more ruthless than this is the prince's prison army.

Lu Yu doesn't know how long it has been since something like this has happened, but when today's son has two sons, Liu Qu is the eldest son, and there is nothing bad about his conduct, and his status is unbreakable, not to mention that the prince is not very old, and the Son of Heaven can rest assured that he will come to supervise the army, but is it really necessary? If the Son of Heaven wants to catch these thieves, wouldn't it be better to directly let the state send border troops??

Similarly, most of the governors of the other states did not understand why, but although they couldn't figure it out, they still began to make preparations, they wanted to provide school yards, military camps, and even food and grass for the northern and southern armies.

And at this moment, the southern army that has been waiting in Luoyang for a long time is also ready to go, the newly recruited soldiers, reluctantly bid farewell to their families, and went to the barracks, at the same time, in the palace, the queen is also holding the little guy in front of him in military uniform, and he is very reluctant, Hu'er is not very old, but he is not small, if he was placed a hundred years ago, this height is enough to be called to serve.

Therefore, wearing a trumpet leather armor, it will not seem too disobedient, Hu'er is happy these days, all day long in the East Palace to practice martial arts, especially archery, quite the true legend of Lu Guozhang, arm strength is outstanding, and often hold a spear, riding a horse and stabbing thorns, the Yellow Gate has applauded, such days only lasted a few days, he was called to the Houde Palace.

The queen hugged him, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she was really reluctant to let him go away, looked at Liu Xi, who was indifferent, and said, "Your Majesty.. Hu'er is still young, I heard that there are deserts outside the city, flying sand, and the winter is unusually cold, and there have been state herds who have frozen to death... Or wait for Hu'er to grow up, he won't be able to suffer..."

Hearing this, Liu Xi didn't open his mouth, but Hu'er jumped up and shouted, "Mother!" Don't, I'm growing up! I can stand it, Father finally agreed, why do you want to be like this... If I can't go outside, I won't eat anymore... Well.. I won't eat meat anymore! ”

"This is a good idea, lose weight...", Liu Xi nodded thoughtfully, but Hu'er was so anxious that she almost cried, shaking the queen's hand, her eyes were full of anticipation, seeing Hu'er like this, the queen was not very easy to say anything, she sighed helplessly, then nodded, Hu'er screamed happily, and kissed her mother several times.

Liu Xi glanced at the kid in front of him, he had ordered Zhang Liao, this time let this kid see what war is.

"If something goes wrong with the army, I will ask you, if you lose the battle, you should apologize!" , Liu Xi said coldly, the queen was taken aback, but Hu'er nodded and said, "That's how it should be." ”

"You must obey the orders of the commander and obey the military law, otherwise, if he disposes of you, I will not care!"

"Respectfully!" , Hu'er even gave a military salute.

"Then go to the camp of the Southern Army and set off together." , Liu Xi waved his hand, the queen grabbed Hu'er, and told him again, then he watched Hu'er rush away from the Houde Palace, Liu Xi no longer had a straight face, and sat beside the queen with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I'm scaring him, I've already ordered it, you can rest assured." ”

"But it's a war after all... If he..."

"Hey, there is no strong enemy outside the Saiwai, I sent the army this time, one is to train the army, the northern and southern armies have gone a lot of veterans over the years, and a lot of new pawns have been added, as well as their generals, most of them are teenagers who came out of military science, these people still need to be trained, especially those generals, they need to have experience in large-scale operations, this is a rare opportunity to train the army..."

"I'm going to conquer Guishan, this time it's just a military training, what's more, Hu'er is crying every day these days, you have also seen it, he must be gagged... Look how happy he is now. ”

Liu Xi said a little, and the queen calmed down, and asked suspiciously: "Your Majesty wants to conquer Guishan?" ”

Liu Xi smiled bitterly, "If I don't conquer, when that kid ascends the throne, the first thing he will do is to conquer Guishan with the strength of the whole country, and at that time, the prosperity of my three generations of foundation will be destroyed in his hands, I know Hu'er very well, you think about it, just by sending the northern and southern armies and the border army, he can make up 300,000 horses, and when the time comes, these 300,000 horses will need millions of farmers to escort grain and so on..."

"If the farmers are busy, and millions of young people don't work hard, but go to fight in all directions, what do you think will happen in this world?"

The queen's eyes widened and she looked at Liu Xi, and Liu Xi said: "So, it's better for this Guishan to die in my hands, at least, I can destroy him at the smallest cost and take revenge!" Hearing Liu Xi's explanation, the queen didn't ask much, Liu Xi smiled, hugged the queen, and laughed: "This guy won't bother us anymore..."

The queen gave him a blank look and scolded, "You impropriety..."

.........

After some impropriety, Liu Xi quickly got up, he still has a lot of music to deal with, fortunately, he is strong, without the disease of his father, tired day and night, but can bear it, this battle of annihilation, if it is fought, it is impossible to say that he can get the position of the prince, so the commander of this battle of Guishan still has to be set in advance.

The only difficulty is how to convince both armies, if you let Guan Yu come, I am afraid that the southern army will not accept it, if you let Zhang Liao come, I am afraid that the northern army will not accept it, after the temple gets rid of the position of the captain, this has become a difficult problem, Liu Xi thought for a while, but he already had an idea in his heart.

And at this moment, Hu'er also rushed to the southern army camp, with a group of embroidered messengers, however, the embroidered messenger just sent him to the door, and he couldn't go in, the lord's pro-army was given by the lord in the future, the prince could not bring his own people into the southern army camp, Hu'er didn't care about this, and walked into the camp with a smile, the soldiers were practicing in full swing, and occasionally you could see the patrolling soldiers.

When these soldiers saw Hu'er, they just stopped and bowed their hands, and then quickly left, without the slightest respect for him from the temple people, but Hu'er still liked this attitude very much, and it should be like this, when he came to the main general's camp, he asked the pro-army standing at the door to go to the report, and the pro-army hurriedly entered, and after a while, Fang came out and said: "The main general is discussing the war with everyone, please wait a while." ”

Hu'er nodded, when he came, his father had already explained that he came this time mainly to supervise logistics, learn more about how to camp, how to march, and not interfere in the war, so he was not called at this meeting, and he was not angry.

It's just that after waiting in front of the camp for a long time, no one called him in, probably waited for almost half an hour, Hu'er couldn't sit still, and asked the pro-army to urge again, the pro-army walked in helplessly, and after a while, he walked out again, his face was red, obviously he was reprimanded, he saluted helplessly, and said: "The general is not under his orders, do not disturb." ”

"Good thief! But deceive me when I am young??! Hu'er was furious, suddenly, pushed away the pro-army in front of him, and rushed into the camp tent, Zhang Liao was sitting on the main seat, there were many generals sitting next to him, Hu'er broke in, everyone looked at the past, saw the people, they hurriedly got up and worshipped, only Zhang Liao, sitting in place, did not move.

Hu'er was furious, looked at him, and said, "I am a prisoner, what do you want to deliberately hang me out of the tent?" ”

Zhang Liao frowned, got up slowly, and said, "The supervising army has no right to listen to the major affairs of the military aircraft, why did the supervising army break into the main camp?" Someone! Get it for me! Zhang Liao gave an order, everyone was shocked, and before they had time to stop it, two soldiers rushed forward like tigers and wolves, and the young tiger was not an opponent, so he was taken down directly.

"Trespassing on the main camp is a capital crime!"

"Come on, drag it down and cut it down..."

"Never!!" , The generals present were so frightened that their legs were weak, and they all blocked in front of Zhang Liao, Hu'er also widened his eyes, looked at Zhang Liao in front of him, opened his mouth wide, and roared: "I am the prince!" Kill me, are you trying to rebel? ”

Zhang Liao squinted his eyes, his eyes were full of murder, and said indifferently: "That's right, the prince is still young, the fault is not in you, it lies in your master, who failed to teach you well, come on, go and cut off Cui Yan's head!" ”

Zhang Liao commanded, and several people immediately walked out, Hu'er subconsciously felt that he didn't dare to do that, but looking at Zhang Liao's cold gaze, he was extremely afraid in his heart, and he hurriedly shouted: "General Zhang, don't be like this, my master doesn't understand military affairs, this has nothing to do with him, the blame lies with me!" ”

"Oh?"

"Come on, pull it out and punish ten military sticks!"

"General Zhang!! How does this make!! This!! Seeing everyone's frightened opposition, Zhang Liao ignored it, personally went out of the horse, pulled the tiger out of the camp, let people press him to the ground, picked up the military stick, and began to fight, the prince who hit was wow wow yelling, everyone was frightened, Zhang Liao controlled his strength, looked at the prince who was scolding himself, and thought silently in his heart:

His Royal Highness the Prince, I am also acting under the edict, don't blame it...
