Liu Yi passed the book to Guo Jia to deal with Jingxiang's matter, and as Fengxiao and Liu Biao's adviser Kuai Liang met again, the situation in Jingzhou also became clear, Liu Biao invited Guo Jia and Xu Shu into the state capital, and discussed in the study for nearly a day before sending them back to the post house, and the details of the discussion between them were unknown to no one except the person concerned, but then Liu Biao's attitude towards Xun Yu gradually became cold and perfunctory, and the Jingzhou army was also secretly mobilized, the most obvious thing was to strengthen the defense of Nanyang County, Kuai Yue led an army of 50,000 to join Liu Pan and Huang Zhong here.

Seeing this situation, Xun Yu asked Liu Biao to resign, and came to visit Guo Jia before leaving, and there was no sense of depression between his descriptions, and with Feng Xiao's understanding of his old friend, his performance was by no means fake, presumably the result of this trip Xun Wenruo had already considered in his heart, since he came he would not return empty-handed, as for why Guo Jia was also difficult to find out.

Occasionally, Zhuge Liangguo refused Liu Yi's request to invite him to Beijing as expected by Guo Xu, on the grounds that he was still young and had to take care of his teacher Yunyun nearby. Judging from the current situation, Zhuge Liang's intention to stay in Jingxiang seems to be helpful to Liu Jingzhou, regardless of whether he is sincere or not, it will be beneficial for Jingzhou to resist Cao's army.

Soon after Xun Yu left, Guo Jia and Xu Shu also said goodbye to Liu Biao and embarked on the way home, more Pang Tongyi in the line, although it was a newlywed Yan Er Ke Shiyuan knew in his heart that the situation should not be delayed now, under Liu Yun's arrangement, everyone passed through Yuzhou day and night, this is Cao Cao's sphere of influence, although his people may not dare to blatantly attack the angel, but this risk Liu Yun still does not dare to take it, the itinerary of Tian'er elite to the fullest, carefully arranged, until after entering Xuzhou, Liu Yun slightly let go of the burden in his heart, Xuzhou is led by Liu Xuande, In today's situation, it should be safe.

On October 18, 198, the eighth year of Xingping of the Han Dynasty, the general of Zhengdong led Liu Bei, the uncle of the emperor of Xuzhou, to conquer Yangzhou in the name of conquering Yangzhou in the name of the general Sun Bofu privately attacked Yangzhou, and the army entered the important town of Huaiyin, at this time, Sun Ce's envoy Lu Su Zhuge Jin was still in Beiping and had not turned back, Liu Bei had been planning for a long time, and had a lot of support from the general secretly, under the sudden raid, Guan Yu occupied three counties and nineteen counties of Yangzhou within half a month, and the Xuzhou army was mighty, at this time Sun Ce also personally led the army to meet the enemy, and the two formed a confrontation on the first line of the county. Occasionally, more than a dozen battles of the size are lost and attacked, and at this time it coincides with the arrival of midwinter, and both sides are high ditches and deep bases, and they do not seek merit but seek no fault.

At this time, the most bizarre thing is that Cao Mengde's troops did not move, neither sent troops to attack Xuzhou, nor did he use troops against Jingxiang, but the transfer of Yanzhou people and horses is extremely secret, and it is difficult to investigate its details for a while, which leads to the trend of not making Liu Yi and Liu Biao both secretly vigilant in their hearts, Cao Cao will not be so quiet, once the army is raised, it will be huge!

Time entered December of the eighth year of Xingping, the winter of this year was extremely cold, and heavy snowfall fell in the north, and many counties were cut off from the roads! Among them, Youzhou is the most, so the outside is a scene of heavy snow and a cold and frozen scene, the officials in the Youzhou Prefecture are busy in full swing, and the continuous heavy snow has caused the collapse of residential buildings in various counties and townships, with a total of more than 1,000 dead and injured, this number seems to be nothing in troubled times, but it has not been encountered for many years for Youzhou, which has been stable for a long time, and the momentum of the heavy snow continues to continue, and the damage to the crops caused by casualties is even more worrying, since the last drought in the world, Youzhou's administrative system has ushered in a more severe test than the previous one.

At this time, the city of Beiping is covered in silver, it looks extraordinarily magnificent and majestic, and the careful expansion makes this Han capital city under the attack of heavy snow and does not have any accidents like the rest of the places, the streets are full of children running and frolicking in the snowman and playing snowball fights, for them this snow has added a lot of childlike fun, but Liu Yi in the state capital obviously does not have the slightest interest in appreciating the beautiful snow scene, he can't control this kind of celestial phenomenon, but it is too bad time, if the heavy snow lasts for half a month, It will be a devastating blow to the farmland of Youzhou, and he can't sit back and wait for the snow to stop, but always have to come up with a way to survive such extreme weather.

"Wang Xi, how long do you think this heavy snow will last?" A group of officials gathered in the lobby of the state capital here to discuss the way to deal with it, at this time, even the commander of the Longxiang battalion, Pingnan General Xu Huang, led the army to the suburbs of Beiping and waited in the palace for the main army division to meet, it can be seen that the situation is serious at this time, Liu Yi said that the first question was Wang Xi, since the last drought accurately predicted the rain, his observation of the celestial phenomena has been enough to convince everyone, he also predicted the heavy snow before, but the northern land has always been snowy has been customary, but he did not expect it to come so violently!

"My lord, the clouds in the sky are extremely thick, it is difficult to see in detail, and my subordinates can only speculate on what they have seen in the past at this time, and it will be difficult to stop this heavy snow for at least seven days." When Wang Xi heard this, he immediately replied that he had been observing the celestial phenomena on the high platform of Qintianjian for several nights, but due to the heavy snowfall, the visibility in the sky was extremely low, and it was difficult to make a detailed conclusion, so he could only rely on experience to make speculations.

"Changwen, what is the situation in the counties now?" Liu Yi nodded slightly when he heard this, and no longer asked in detail, it was extremely difficult for Wang Xi to have this inference with advanced technical means, but the tightly knit brows deepened a little, with the speculation of those officials of the Agricultural Affairs Department, ten days to half a month under such heavy snow is the limit, otherwise the harvest in Youzhou this year will be greatly affected, and more counties and townships are more likely to lose the harvest, if this is the case, it will be an extremely heavy burden.

"Lord, the eight counties of Youzhou are all covered by heavy snow this time, but the severity is slightly different, among which the two counties of the Yan Dynasty are the heaviest, and the rest of the places are slightly lighter, Sui County has 17 people killed, 168 people have been injured, Yun County... Chen Qun got up and replied when he heard this, and the report of a series of numbers made the faces of everyone present more and more heavy, even when there was a great drought back then, Youzhou was not as it is now, but this is obviously no wonder that officials from all over the world, no one could have thought of this year's blizzard.

"Yuan Chang, have the county officials acted in accordance with the previous agreement? What about the book? Liu Yi bowed his head slightly when he heard this, he had never seen such a heavy snow in his later life, and it was obviously inappropriate to harshly criticize his subordinates, and several people had discussed earlier that county and county officials from all over the country should come to the most severely affected places in their territories to understand the needs of the people, and natural disasters should not be resisted but must not be caused by man-made disasters, and there are already more than 1,000 casualties, and they must not be allowed to expand!

"Back to the lord, the counties have been ordered by the state capital, only the county lieutenant of Miao County Dongmen Liang failed to arrive in time, and now the inspection department has temporarily detained it, and the county affairs are handled by the chief bookkeeper Zhu Liang, who is about to ask the lord to send it down, and the response from all over the country is not two, one is for heating, and the other is for resettlement, in which a large number of charcoal and wood, soil and stone and other things are already being mobilized, but due to heavy snow, some counties are difficult to transport for a while!" Zhong Xuan got up and said when he heard this!

"Hmph, Liu Mou's order has left them enough time limit before, and officials from all over the country can fulfill their responsibilities, this Miao County is not a rugged place, no matter what excuse Dongmen Liang has, he is not afraid, and he ordered him to be dismissed on the spot and escorted to Beijing to listen to the fate, the news is spread all over Youzhou, this time the matter is urgent, and Liu Mou, who dares to disobey the order of the state government, will definitely be severely punished, and the Zhu Liang you said is the brother of Zhu Ming, the lieutenant of Yanyun Battalion?" Liu Yi snorted coldly, he was quite satisfied with what most officials did, but if there was anyone who disrespected the order, he would never be soft! Listening to Zhu Liang's name, it was Zhu Liang who persecuted their mother and son when he and Mi Zhen accepted Hao Zhao as an apprentice in Yixian County, as for his brother Zhu Ming, Liu Yi's old subordinate, Dong Cheng and others intended to rebel and was broken by Jia Xu This Zhu Ming is a great meritorious, and he is serving in the Sizhou Zhang Liao Yanyun camp at this time.

"What the lord said is not bad, it is this person, just went to Miao County from Youzhou Academy a year ago, it is reported that this Zhu Liang is extremely diligent, and the local people's livelihood is quite good, this time he has repeatedly admonished Shangguan not to do anything, and is now coordinating county affairs in Miao County!" Zhong Xuan replied that the lord's memory has always been excellent, and the names of these officials are also unforgettable, so he naturally would not have thought that there was a relationship between the two.

"Well, this person should be rewarded for doing so, so he will be given the position of the East Gate, and this time he will do something again, and he will be corrected after the heavy snow! Ji Ming, what Fang Caiyuan often said about the transportation of those materials? Liu Yi was slightly relieved when he heard this, the gentleman of the year can also be diligent in serving the people at this time, it seems that Youzhou Academy does have the merit of educating people, although this officialdom is not as good as the battlefield, but it also has clear rewards and punishments, and immediately made a decision, and asked Tian Yu who was sitting down, Speaking of this person may be Liu Yi's talent and reputation are the most incompatible, because what he does is the logistics foundation and other obscure things, but in Liu Yi's eyes, Tian Yu's role is not under Guo Jiajia Xu and others, so he has great trust in him, Whatever has been rewarded, it has never been left behind.

"Although there are difficulties in the transfer of transportation, Yu can also discuss with everyone to solve it, but what Yuan Chang said is also the truth, Yu asked the lord to let me go to the Yan Dynasty to personally deploy, and then asked the military division to temporarily hand over the power of the command of the county here to Yu, as for other things, there are logistics departments and everyone is not under Yu." Tian Yu also got up and replied when he heard this, the lord's trust in him has never changed, it can be described as a great grace, he has to try his best to repay, every time he encounters an emergency, he is on the front line, this time this heavy snow has not been encountered in a hundred years, how can he not worry about the lord.

"Every person who can solve my worries in an emergency is Ji Ming, I will take you as a disaster relief envoy, inspect all parts of Youzhou, Zhicai will pass this matter to all armies, where Ji Ming needs to do his best to help, otherwise military law is engaged, Ji Ming, this is my jade card, temporarily give orders to you, if there is an urgent situation can be reported to Linji to decide, with this jade card can behead the following officers." Liu Yi was deeply pleased to hear this, and immediately took off the jade plate from his waist and handed it to Tian Yu and said solemnly, Tian Yu is not a person in the army, he can't give a sword, the Han Dynasty people are still jade, both men and women have to carry, Liu Yi's piece is also Cai Yan carefully selected for him, engraved with the word Langsheng, usually hung on the waist, at this time to give the jade card to each other, which is equivalent to giving Tian Yu the right to cut first and then play, the Han Dynasty is not better than now, the means of communication are backward, and at this time it is snowing heavily, he can't let Tian Yu ask for instructions on everything and then decide.

"The lord rest assured, Tian Yu will live up to the trust of the lord, and there is just a batch of charcoal and clothes that need to be sent to the Yan Dynasty, and Yu will set off tonight." Tian Yu stepped forward to take Liu Yi's jade plate and bowed down and said, in the Youzhou army, the prestige of the lord is extremely high, and this jade plate is better than any will.

"Well, without further ado, Ziping, you choose ten nimble people among my guards to accompany Ji Ming, don't keep him safe!" Liu Yi nodded and said to Guan Hai beside him, this kind of weather is quite dangerous, and he doesn't want Tian Yu to have any accidents.

When Guan Hai heard this, he stepped back and made arrangements, Tian Yu also sat back, and everyone discussed all kinds of details in the lobby, these things were complicated and complicated, and this discussion did not disperse until late at night, and everyone withdrew from the lobby to go their own way.

"Ziping, let the cook bring some food, and then call Gongming." Liu Yi picked up the teacup on the desk and took a sip, before he said to Guan Hai that he and Xi Zhicai couldn't rest at this time, because the military situation in front of them would not be slow because of the heavy snow in Youzhou.

"Zhicai, Fengxiao, have they ever crossed the Yellow River?" Waiting for Guan Hai to go out, Liu Yi asked Xi Zhicai, although the weather in Jizhou is not as good as Youzhou, there are several heavy snowfalls, so the Yellow River ferry has been closed for a few days, Guo Jia and others waited at the ferry for safety, and Liu Yi also thought about it at this time.

"Rest assured, Fengxiao and his entourage have crossed the Yellow River this morning, and they must be able to reach Yecheng soon, and Yuan Zhishi Yuan is coming to Beiping." Xi Zhicai said.

"That's good, let's have dinner first, and after discussing with Komeito later, you can go back to the house to rest first, and I will be in charge of this state capital myself." Liu Yi put his mind at ease, and when he saw that Xi Zhicai was quite tired on his face, he said that these Japanese military divisions have also worked hard for the things in the army, and although his stubborn disease has already been cured by Hua Tuo, Liu Yi is still very concerned about his body. At this time, it happened that the cook brought in the hot meal, and Liu Yi did it unceremoniously.

"Zhicai should listen to the arrangement of the lord, but the matter of celestial phenomena is difficult to disobey, and the lord should also pay attention to the body, at present, Cao Mengde must be on guard at any time if he does not move our army, and there are many things that need to be decided by the lord, hey~~ This heavy snow is really not the time." Xi Zhi knew that as soon as Liu Yi's words came out, even if he objected, it would not be effective, so he smiled and said, and finally shook his head slightly, and he also used food, so he and Liu Yi naturally did not have too many concerns.

"Liu can't make it snow, but he can't let the disaster expand again, although Zhicai can rest assured, this hard work is not in Liu's eyes, I can also tell which is more important, well, this mutton is not bad, I will make a hot pot tomorrow night and share it with the military advisor." Liu Yi swallowed the food in his mouth and said, this political and military affairs are extremely important, and he must go all out.

"Oh, Komeito has arrived? Come in, it's too cold outside, I've kept you waiting for a long time for state affairs today, do you want to come some. At this time, Liu Yi saw the figure outside the door, he seemed to be waiting for Liu Yi to have dinner with the military advisor, and immediately greeted loudly, and after Xu Huang entered, he said quite relaxedly, today can make Gongming wait for nearly a day.

"The main army division is busy with political affairs, how can Huang not know, the two of you use it slowly, Huang Fang just slept for a while, and now he is in good spirits." Xu Huang naturally knew that there was no big event, how could the lord make him wait for a long time, but the next remark made Liu Yi all playful.
