Chapter 149: The Snow Falls, and the Theory of the Fire (10th Update)

However, as the so-called unpredictable weather in the sky, just when Yuan Xi was waiting for all the talents from all walks of life in Youzhou to come to Suxian, the weather suddenly began to get cold sharply, and after a few days, the goose-feather-like snow fell, and in one night, the vast land was changed into a set of snow-white clothes, which looked very beautiful, but Yuan Xi did not have the slightest pleasure of appreciation, because of such weather, the plan of Juxian Pavilion could not be implemented at all.

"I've thought about everything, but I just forgot about the weather" In the inner hall of the Assassin's Mansion, Yuan Xi, Li Ru, Han Yan, and Pang Tong were warming themselves around a stove.

"Now it seems that we can only wait for the heavy snow to pass" Han Yan, who was wearing a thick velvet jacket and was thin, licked his lips that were a little bruised and said softly.

"Forget it, just wait for the winter, the weather is warming, so as not to have another accident, the plan of the Juxian Pavilion must be sensational, in this kind of weather, it is estimated that no one will dare to go far" Yuan Xi frowned and announced softly.

Li Ru and the three nodded, and Pang Tong said: "What the son said is very true, and he doesn't care about this time."

"By the way, it's suddenly so cold, the soldiers are all right!" Yuan Xi said with concern

"Childe, rest assured, the winter clothes have already been distributed, and a month's military salary has been specially advanced, there should be no problem" Li Ru put his hands on the red flame, constantly rubbing back and forth.

"In the past few days, in ancient times, Daijun, Yuyang, and Liaoxi have all said that heavy snow has fallen, and the so-called Ruixue shines on the harvest year, which may be true for other places, but it is a little different for us Youzhou" A trace of worry flashed in Yuan Xi's eyes.

"What Gongzi said is very much, foreigners are not good at farming, animal husbandry is the staple food, every time after a heavy snowfall, a lot of cattle and sheep will die, resulting in a decrease in food, and then there will be turmoil, if they themselves are just that, I am afraid that someone will faint and come to Youzhou to be presumptuous" Pang Tong said with a serious look.

Han Yan nodded in agreement, "It happened a few years ago, but it was just a small tribe that was disobedient, and the Three Kings Department had a big order to suppress it, so it was quickly pacified."

Hearing this, Li Ru shook his head slightly, "I think we should pay special attention to it this year, especially Liaoxi and Shanggu, recently the Secret Pavilion has been receiving news constantly, saying that the son of Wuheng Shan Yu of the previous generation, the Lou Ban who commanded the Three Kings Department has been uniting with Nanlou and Su Fuyan recently, and has been looking for trouble with Da Shan Yu, trying to regain the position of Da Shan Yu."

"He is talking about a dream, and he is recognized by the Son of Heaven and Yuan Gong, what kind of thing is he?"

Han Yan said with disdain, a trace of confidence flashed in his eyes, now Youzhou is not Youzhou a year ago, but has surpassed Gongsun Zhan's Youzhou back then, Gongsun Chan killed the benevolent Liu Yu back then, so Yan Rou, Xian Yufu and others were extremely dissatisfied, and Yuan Xi is different, since Yan Rou returned to obedience, the troops under his command have reached 110,000, and all of them obey Yuan Xi's orders, as long as a word, they can sweep them.

"I'm afraid that Tatun is good at taking care of the old feelings and taking the initiative to give way, that Lou Ban has a cruel personality and is ambitious, he is so eager to regain the position of Da Shan Yu, it is estimated that one is the right, and the other is also to be able to get a piece of the pie when my Han is in turmoil" Pang Tong sneered.

"Fleas are not terrible, but they will make people disgusting, and if there are more fleas, it is estimated that it will be a big trouble, the goal of the son is the Central Plains in a few years, recently there was news from Yangzhou, Yuan Shu actually went out of the city to meet the enemy Cao, Lu, Sun Sanfang, resulting in defeat and retreat, it is estimated that this cold winter, can let him hold on, but it will not last long, according to Confucian estimates, once Yuan Shu is destroyed, the battle of the Central Plains will inevitably break out in two or three years" Li Ru said seriously.

Yuan Xi nodded, a trace of ambition flashed in his eyes: "Time seems to be abundant, but in fact it is also very tight, since we have said this, then let's talk about the problems of Wuhuan and other foreign races, now that Youzhou is calm, the only thing to worry about is the foreign race and Liaodong Gongsun Du, Gongsun Du can be put aside for the time being, let's talk about foreign races first"

Han Yan immediately said: "The most important foreign clan in Youzhou is Wuhuan, which can also be called Karasuma, if the Han Dynasty is strong, they are more honest than the Han people, but now the Central Plains is in chaos and the Han court is in decline, so it is a bit jumpy, which is mainly divided into these parts, the most important is the Liaoxi Dun Da Dan Yu, Qiu Li Ju Department, and the Lou Ban Department, and the other is the difficult building in Shanggu, Su Muyan in the Xuanwu County area of Liaodong, and finally Wuyan in the right Beiping, these bright faces are all attributed to the management of the Da Dan of Liaoning, in fact, they are separated, Just nominally obedient"

"As for the Wuhuan grassland, it is Xianbei, the Xiongnu Zuoxian Wangbu, and the area of Buyeo, but these three aspects, due to the distance and the obstruction of Wuhuan, generally do not endanger our Youzhou"

After Han Yan finished his introduction, Pang Tong said: "Things can be done step by step, you can first completely stabilize Wu Huan, and then solve the rest, judging from the current situation, there are three ways to let the foreign people return to their hearts, one of which is to stabilize the status of Tadun Shan Yu, he still has a lot of respect for the son, especially after Deputy Commander Yan Rou returned to obedience, he immediately sent two thousand good horses; The second is that he is strong, once he changes, he will be completely scared, but this is not a long-term solution, once I am weakened, maybe there are heroes from foreign races, and there will still be a resurgence; The third is to adopt assimilation, move all of them into the hinterland of the Central Plains, accept our culture, get used to our diet, and gradually transform all of them into Han Chinese, so that the problem can be fundamentally solved, but it is estimated that it will take a long time."

"The third method is not suitable for now, but after the son unifies the world, the national policy is positioned, and the implementation is carried out, now it can only be used to kill to establish authority, to reward grace, once Wuhuan threatens my Youzhou, it is necessary to immediately destroy its army, destroy its department, and cast a great ferociousness, and for those who are loyal to the son, you can be greatly rewarded, so that they can be in awe from the bottom of their hearts, at present, Wuhuan has at least 50,000 elite cavalry, not to mention all of them, as long as half of them are taken, for the future battle of the Central Plains, As well as stabilizing the four northern continents, it will play a huge role," Li Ru said with a cold gaze.

After Pang Tong and Han Yan listened to it, although they felt that Li Ru's words had a strong smell of blood, they were foreigners after all, so they nodded in agreement.

"Then send an order again, let all counties and armies must take precautions, once the heavy snow passes, there is a foreign invasion and harm to our people, no matter who it is, we must give a tough response, there must be no hesitation and retreat, even if it is killed into the grassland, it will not hesitate, special note, all those who have made meritorious contributions in the war to defend the country will be rewarded generously" Yuan Xi ordered solemnly.

"No!" Li Ru, Pang Tong, and Han Yan immediately stood up respectfully and responded.
