Marshal's House.

Luo Cheng sat there, staring at the crowd of horses under his seat.

There are not only veterans such as Hou Mo Chen Yi, Wei Zheng, and Wang Ziming, but also teachers such as Zhang Xutuo and Zhang Yichen, as well as friends such as Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling who had teamed up in the early years.

Of course, there are also Qu Tutong, Feng Deyi, Li Baiyao, etc., who were once enemies, and Du Yan, Zheng Yuanxuan, Zheng Shanguo, Cui Junsu, Wang Qi, Wei Ting and others who once looked down on him Luo Cheng.

These people can be called handsome for a while.

But now, they are all gathered under his Luo Cheng.

After Zhang Xutuo came to Liaodong from Shandong, he has been recuperating in the house, and he finally came out today.

He is now serving as the right servant of the imperial court inspection school and the squire of the military department, and Luo Cheng's father has just come from Liaodong, he resigned from the post of Shandong Daojiedu envoy, but he added Shangzhu State, Kaifu Yitong and the three divisions, crowned the king of Qi, and no longer held a substantive position.

After all, if a father does things for an official under his son, it is always inconsistent with the name of the year to be virtuous and openly proclaim the establishment of the country with filial piety.

Luo Guile was idle, so the court awarded him the title of Pingzhangshi, which can be regarded as a title of prime minister.

It turned out that Luo Cheng's old boss Zhang Yichen is also coming to Liaodong now, including Fang Xuanling's father Fang Yanqian, and their arrival Luo Cheng is of course very welcome.

In fact, these people can do it together today, but it is just a sentence of interest.

Even if there were personal grudges and old grudges in the past, they can still sit together now.

Of course, there are also people like Li Yuan, who were originally in-laws with Luo Cheng, but they thought that they had the strength to compete for the world, so they did not accept Luo Cheng's repeated recruitment, and still stood on their own.

"Marshal, Li Mi of Henan Province sent an envoy a few days ago to pay tribute to the ministers, expressing his willingness to serve Zhengshuo and be loyal."

Luo Cheng just smiled at the news.

"Li Mi previously accepted the recruitment of the emperor of Jiangdu, but now he has come to show his loyalty to my Liaodong court, can you believe this?"

Feng Deyi immediately said, "Li Mi has the ability, but he must not be gullible, he was recruited before, and now he says Feng Zhengshuo, I think it is just a delaying tactic." Now Li Mi is fighting with Dou Jiandong in Hebei Province in Baima County east of the canal, and this person is just worried that we will take the opportunity to make a move, so he came to give us ecstasy soup. ”

Luo Cheng cast an appreciative look at Feng Deyi.

"What do the feudals think should be done with Li Mi's envoy?"

"I think that since Li Mi took the initiative to join the service, it is better to accept this seal first, and then give him an official position or something, he will fool us, and we will fool him. And I think that this move has an advantage, that is, Li Mi will be a minister of my court in the future, if he rebels in the future, he will have to bear the name of rebellion, and we will beat him, and he will also be famous. ”

Of course, Feng Deyi believes that the most important thing is to appease Li Mi first after taking this table, so that he can fight Dou Jiande with all his strength, and when they are both defeated, it is not too late to make a move.

At that time, even if Li Mi is still a nominal Sui minister, it will not be easy to deal with him, and he can send troops if he finds some reason.

"Teacher, what do you think?"

Luo Cheng asked Zhang Xutuo, Zhang Xutuo had been in Henan for a long time, and although he was defeated by Li Mi, it was not that he really couldn't beat Li Mi. As for the situation in Henan, he naturally has the most right to speak.

Zhang Xutuo has been recuperating from his injuries for a while, and now his body has recovered a little, but he has been a little uncomfortable psychologically, mainly because he is still guarding the fighting Da Sui, which is actually on the verge of extinction, which makes him still very hurt emotionally, especially among the anti-thieves who want to destroy the Great Sui, the most powerful one is Luo Cheng, a student who should have guarded the Great Sui like him, but this is already the case, Luo Cheng also saved his life, so after this period of recuperation and adjustment, his heart knot slowly opened a little.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to today's meeting.

"Now the Central Plains has become a dividing trend, all parties are strong, one after another, in addition to my court Zhengshuo, Li Mi is the strongest, and then Hebei Dou Jiande, and then Jiangdu court and Luoyang court. Moreover, there are such as Xiao Miao, Lin Shihong, Xue Ju, Li Rail, Liang Shidu, Shen Faxing, etc., but they are not to be feared. ”

"The real one who becomes a powerful person is Li Mi, Dou Jiande, Li Yuan, Wang Shichong, Xiao Milling, and although Xiao Milling has a large number of soldiers, he is the weakest in strength, and he is just taking advantage of the weakness."

The art of war, long-distance and close-range attack.

The four strongest families, Li Mi Dou Jiande, Li Yuan, Wang Shichong, and now Li Yuan and Li Mi Dou Jiande are in contact with the Zhide Imperial Court, mainly in Shandong.

And now the big war is also here in Shandong.

"Whoever can win in the Central Plains in the end will be the final winner."

"I suggest that you can unite with Wang Shichong of Luoyang and destroy Li Mi first!" Zhang Xutuo suggested.

Whoever is the strongest will be killed first, and the weak will be strong.

The newcomer Du Yan proposed that the north should be followed by the south, and the north should be swept away from north to south.

So don't care about the Central Plains for now, they are fighting theirs, we will fight ours, first find a way to defeat Fan Yang's Dugu usurpation, and then go south to attack Dou Jiande, and then go down to the Central Plains.

Xuansu County, a domestic city.

Yuan Taizuo, the governor of Xuansu, welcomed the arrival of a group of Han officials, who were a large group of officials such as defense envoys, county officials, and county lieutenants sent by the Liaodong Imperial Court.

"Governor Yuandu, how is the reorganization of the county soldiers of Xuansu County, but it has been completed, how are the troops, and how is the equipment?"

The new Xuansu County Governor and Defense Envoy Changsun Shunde asked.

The eldest grandson, Shunde, was only a guard earlier, but later because he escaped the battle of Liao, he killed cattle with Liu Hongji and them, and was deliberately imprisoned to avoid service.

Later, he joined Luo Siye's army with Liu Hongji, because his niece eldest grandson Wujian is now Luo Cheng's concubine, so he came to Liaodong from Dingxiang.

was awarded by Luo Cheng the post of Xuansu County Cheng and Defense Envoy.

Originally, he was not enough to confer this position, but Xuansu is now Yuan Taizuo's territory, and it is still risky to come here, so it can be regarded as an exceptional award.

Yuan Taizuo is much older.

In the past few years, he has also worked hard, worked hard, was unwilling, and resented.

But with the defeat in the Battle of Fuyuchuan, and with Song Laosheng taking control of Lelang County, Yuan Taizuo finally chose to surrender.

His two sons are hostages in Sui, and he can't fight anymore when he is old.

Years of war have made his territory smaller and smaller, and the young and strong have been preparing for war on the border all year round, resulting in the exhaustion of money and food, and famine everywhere.

"According to the order of King Qin, my Xuanwu County has five counties under its jurisdiction, with a total of more than 600,000 households and more than 3 million dingkou. The first army of county soldiers was established, with a number of 24,000 soldiers and an actual strength of 24,000, with a total of 48 battalions. According to the system of the imperial court, the four-round rotation system is adopted, and there are 12 battalions on duty now, with a total of 6,000 people. ”

"Isn't there a supernumerary?" The eldest grandson Shunde asked.

"There is no supernumerary, and the original soldiers and horses, except for the 24,000 retained and transferred to the county soldiers, the rest have been reduced and returned to the field. The military account roster is all there, and Changsun Juncheng can check it at any time. ”

The eldest grandson, Shunde, was very satisfied with this result.

"I believe in the governor of the Yuan, but the inspection is also a point inspection, which is a rule of the imperial court. There is another matter, before I came, the king of Qin asked people to bring an order, asking the governor of Yuandu to check 10,000 soldiers from Xuanwu County and send them to Liaodong, and go to the Central Plains with the imperial army to quell the chaos. ”

"That's fine, right?" The eldest grandson Shunde asked with a smile.

Yuan Taizuo hesitated and was entangled.

I want to refuse, but I know that there is no room, but I accept it, but I am unwilling.

"What, is there a problem?"

"It's just that spring plowing is imminent, and I am afraid that I will miss the agricultural time when I go on the expedition at this time." Yuan Taizuo had no choice but to say so.

"The imperial court also knows, so this time the soldiers are specially exempted from three years of rent as compensation."

"I don't know who is in charge of these 10,000 soldiers and horses?" Yuan Taizuo asked again.

"It is best for the county prince to be in charge, of course, if the county prince is unwell, he can also be handed over to a certain person or led by the county captain." The eldest grandson Shunde said with a smile.

Yuan Taizuo was entangled for a long time, and finally had no choice but to respond.

If he refuses, maybe Luo Cheng's loyal army will come to the east to attack him first, and now he is powerless to fight with Luo Cheng.

There are more than 40 cities in Buyeo River, the main city of Buyeo was broken in one day, and the remaining 40 cities were all captured in less than half a month, which deeply shocked him.
