Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Well! That sounds pretty close to the truth. Liu Xiu said to Long Yuan on the side: "Propose two million dollars and bring someone to send it to He Mansion in person." Then, he said to He Lu: "Shopkeeper He, please leave the grain and grass of our army to you!" ”

He Lu was grateful, kowtowed forward, and said: "General Liu's great kindness, the villain has nothing to repay, in the future, the villain's life is General Liu's, as long as General Liu commands, the villain will go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and he will not give up!" ”

Liu Xiu patted He Lu and said with a smile: "I hope that the shopkeeper He said this from the bottom of his heart!" ”

He Lu's face was straight, and he said: "The villain can swear by the heavens, if he swears to General Liu...... With two minds to the lord, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and the bones will be scattered, so that my He family will be full of doors, and there will be no place to bury my death! "His oath is poisonous enough.

Liu Xiu's eyes lit up, pulled He Lu up, and said, "Shopkeeper He, now you can go back, the matter of grain and grass needs to be solved as soon as possible!" He Lu knew that there was not much food left in Liu Xiu's hands, and he said with a straight face: "The villain also has two small granaries, although the grain in them is not much, but when added together, there are also hundreds of stones

The urgent need of the soldiers and soldiers. ”

"Good!" Liu Xiu praised it, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Okay, let's go and do things!" ”

"Lord, the villain retires!"

"Hmm." With Liu Xiu's approval, He Lufang turned around and walked out. He also left with Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Xiao.

Liu Xiu did not seize too much grain in Xiangcheng, but seized a lot of money.

If you don't use this money, you can hand it over to Wang Feng, so it's better to take it out and give it to He Lu, who has not only cultivated his own grain channel, but also has a legitimate reason to raise food!

After He Lu left, Liu Xiu's eyes fell on Choshi and asked, "Second situation, how is the investigation?" ”

Choshi took two steps forward and said, "Someone set the fire to it!" ”

"Who did it?"

"Li Wen and Jia Xuan's remnants."

"Everyone's caught?"

"Only two people were caught, and the rest of the people should still be hiding in the city at present, and their subordinates will investigate it as soon as possible!" Choshi said.

Liu Xiu is very satisfied with the efficiency of the Cho period. He said: "These remnants of Li Wen and Jia Xuan must be cleared up as soon as possible, otherwise, Xiangcheng will never have peace." ”

"My subordinates understand."

"By the way, the next situation, you asked Junwen and them to come here, and we will discuss the follow-up deployment."

"Yes! Lord! Choshi said yes and walked out quickly.

It didn't take long for Jia Fu, Ma Wu and others to come to the lobby of the county government one after another. After everyone arrived, Liu Xiu asked: "Now that our troops have captured Xiangcheng, do you think our army will go next?" ”

Ma Wu said: "Lord, my subordinates think that our army should be in full swing, first take the father's city, and then take Yingyang!" ”

Father City and Yingyang are the two closest cities to Xiangcheng. Jia Fu said: "The father city is located in the middle of nowhere, and it has little value, Yingyang has Yingshui as a moat, and our army needs to cross the water to fight Yingyang, which is too difficult." ”

It would be polite to say that it is too difficult, but in fact, with their current strength, they can't beat Yingyang at all.

They led cavalry, not a naval army, and how could cavalry cross the water to fight? How do you go about fighting water wars with people? This is completely unrealistic.

Ma Wu asked, "Junwen, what about your opinion?" ”

Jia Fu squinted his glasses and said, "Be bold, our army will take the county seat directly!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked and looked at Jia Fu in surprise.

Jia Fu said: "The Yingchuan County Army has been transferred to Luoyang, and the county soldiers collected from the counties have not yet entered the county town, and the current county army is empty, which is a good opportunity for our army to enter the county town!" ”

His analysis coincides with Liu Xiu. The latter nodded with a smile and said, "I think Junwen's opinion is feasible!" Directly taking the county seat, it seems to be risky and adventurous, but in fact it is an unexpected danger to win! ”

Feng Yi frowned and said, "If we really defeat Yingchuan County, I'm afraid that we may attract the army of Luoyang at any time!" ”

Choshi continued: "Luoyang's reckless army, go to fight Nanyang, Liu Xuan will definitely be more auspicious, if the reckless army comes to fight Yingchuan, our department will be more auspicious, Liu Xuan can sit back and enjoy its success in Nanyang!" ”

He didn't say it too bluntly, but the deep meaning of his words could be understood by everyone present.

Wang Yi and Wang Xun went to fight Nanyang, which was not a good opportunity for their own side to overthrow and start over, and even after Liu Xuan was killed, they could directly push Liu Xiu as the emperor here in Yingchuan.

If Wang Yi and Wang Xun came to fight Yingchuan, they would fight desperately in front of the two armies, and they were completely making wedding clothes for Liu Xuan.

If they lose, none of them will survive, and if they win, it will only further consolidate Liu Xuan's throne.

Ma Wu's big eyes rolled, and he came back to his senses and said, "Lord, my subordinates think that the second situation is reasonable!" ”

This time, Wang Ba surprisingly did not contradict Ma Wu, he keenly smelled that it was mixed with the power struggle within the Han army, he had just joined the Han army, and he didn't know the specific situation, so it was better to talk less.

How could Liu Xiu not understand the meaning of Choshi's words? But if you really let the Mang army go to fight Nanyang, it is not only Liu Xuan who will be sold, but also his eldest brother, and so many Liu clan relatives. Liu Xiu glanced around at everyone and said meaningfully: "From ancient times to the present, there are countless people who have fallen into internal fighting, and I don't want us to wait for the Han army to follow in their footsteps!" If Nanyang falls, and only our army is left alone in Yingchuan, how long can it last? All in one

Loss, one death is dead, this truth, you have to think twice! ”

Abandoning Nanyang and selling Liu Xuan, it seems that they will soon become vested interests, but in the long run, they will not live a few days longer than Liu Xuan.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally they all bowed their heads and were silent in thought. Thinking about it carefully, the lord's words are not unreasonable, if the Mang army really destroys Nanyang and kills Liu Xuan, can the Mang army still tolerate their existence in Yingchuan?

Seeing that people stopped talking, Liu Xiu Zhengse said: "Our department is advancing Yingchuan County, and capturing it is only secondary, and its main purpose is to introduce the main force of the Mang army into Yingchuan. ”

Ma Wu frowned and asked, "Lord, if the main force of the Mang army really enters Yingchuan, how should our army deal with it?" ”

The Han army entered Yingchuan with a total of only 20,000 soldiers, and more than half of the troops were still in the hands of Wang Feng's wine bag and rice bag.

Liu Xiu's eyes were deep, and he said quietly: "If you can fight, you will fight, if you can't fight, you will run, the longer you drag the Mang army in Yingchuan, the more fully prepared Nanyang will make, and the greater the chance of our side to win!" ”

Everyone looked at each other, nodded their heads, and said in unison: "We are all at the mercy of the lord's arrangement!" ”

Liu Xiu said: "Okay, next, the target of our army's attack is Yingchuan County!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at Choshi and said, "Second time, send your elite scouts to infiltrate the county town, I want to learn more about the current city defense situation in the county town!" ”

Choshi arched his hand and said, "Yes! Lord! ”

Liu Xiu suddenly thought of something and said: "After our army leaves, Xiangcheng cannot be ignored, and there needs to be a safe person to stay in Xiangcheng." ”

When Ma Wu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, he turned his head and grinned at Wang Ba, Wang Ba clearly looked at Ma Wu's big plate teeth flashing with forest light, his heart moved, and he immediately realized that it was not good, Ma Wu was fighting his own ghost idea.

He was just about to speak, when Ma Wu spoke: "Lord, my subordinates think that it is most suitable for Bo Yuan to stay in Xiangcheng!" Bo Yuan is a native of Xiangcheng, and he knows the situation in Xiangcheng best, and there is no one more suitable for him to stay in Xiangcheng than Yuan Bo! ”

When Wang Ba heard this, his nose was almost crooked, so he said that Ma Wu was a person with a disgusting and evil face, and he had a stomach full of flowers. He followed the lord, not to be a little official, but to follow the lord, go into battle to kill the enemy, and make meritorious contributions. He turned his mind around, and then said: "Lord, my subordinates think that Xiangcheng is the top priority for our army to go north, and if Xiangcheng is lost, it means that our army's back road will be cut off, and it will inevitably become a lone army, and there is a danger of annihilation of the whole army." Therefore, those who stay in Xiangcheng must be one

A highly respected and brave general, who can take on this heavy responsibility, it is none other than General Ma! ”

Ma Wu's anger rushed straight to his head, he slapped the case, pointed at Wang Ba, and asked sharply: "Wang Ba, what do you mean?" You can't get along with Lao Tzu, right? ”

Wang Ba looked at Ma Wu for a long time, and said slowly: "Obviously capable of taking on heavy responsibilities, but ignoring them, there is already a suspicion of disloyalty!" ”

Ma Wu was so angry that he held the sword in one hand, and was about to walk towards Wang Ba's side, when Choshi on the side felt a pain in his brain, and hurriedly pulled Ma Wu and said in a low voice: "Zi, Zhang!" ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Xiu. Ma Wu looked back, and sure enough, Liu Xiu was sitting there, his face gloomy, his eyes like torches, staring straight at him and Wang Ba.

If you want to say who can control Ma Wu today, only Liu Xiu. Under Liu Xiu's implied firelight eyes, Ma Wu shrank his neck in fright, sat back on the collapse obediently, drooped his head, and ignored Wang Ba.

After a while, Liu Xiu's face softened a little and said, "Uncle Yuan! ”

Wang Ba hurriedly got up, bowed his hand, and said, "My subordinates are here!" ”

"If Xiangcheng elects a county commander or county lieutenant, do you have a suitable candidate in mind?" Ma Wu is right, Wang Ba is a native of Xiangcheng and knows the situation in Xiangcheng very well.

Wang Ba pondered for a moment and said, "My lord, my subordinates feel that the priest is a suitable candidate!" ”

"Priesthood? Who is he? Liu Xiu had never heard of this name, so he asked curiously.

Sai Zun is a Yingyang clan, born in a scholar family, and his family is very wealthy. When he was young, he read the scriptures and was very talented. This person is very delicate, and he is a scholar, polite, and looks like a bully.

Once, Yingyang's official bullied the priest, and the priest didn't say anything at that time, but when he returned home, he immediately gathered a few guests and killed the official.

After that, in order to avoid the limelight, Sai Zun ran from Yingyang to Xiangcheng.

After arriving in Xiangcheng, Li Wen and Jia Xuan valued him very much, or the money of the priest was in place, and the priest was here in Xiangcheng, and he changed from a fugitive to a bureaucrat.

The energy of the Shi clan was very huge at that time, ordinary people killed people and wanted to be wanted, while the children of the Shi clan killed people, fled elsewhere, and hid for two years.

When the priests went to Xiangcheng, they did not hide, but also became officials, which shows how much privilege the scholars had at that time.

However, this person is indeed very capable, iron-faced and selfless, never colluding with Li Wen, Jia Xuan and others, and is also very loved by the people here in Xiangcheng. In Wang Ba's view, the sacrifice is definitely a clear stream in the officialdom of Xiangcheng, and he appreciates his ability, character, and virtue. Now that Liu Xiu asked him to recommend talents, the first thing he thought of was to sacrifice him.
