After the meeting, Liu Ce left Xu Wenjing and Ye Yin to continue to plan the next specific plan. Wild Sand Literature Network

Liu Ce was a little surprised that Ye Yin was unwilling to take up any position under his command, but he could only temporarily suppress the doubts in his heart and not think about it.

"Now the situation in the Far East needs to be dealt with in three aspects at the same time, the first is naturally the Shangguan army and the local army with bad intentions on the Dingzhou and Youzhou sides, which is the most urgent problem to be solved at present.

The second is the defense of the Hulan people in northern Hebei, once the civil war in Yuanzhou breaks out, we must pay attention to their movements at any time, so as not to be taken advantage of by them.

The third is that the situation in the rear, especially in the direction of Yuanzhou, must be stabilized, and once the rear is affected, it will add a lot of variables to the pacification of this civil strife. ”

After Ye Yin analyzed his opinion, he sat down under the court case and waited for Liu Ce and Xu Wenjing to reply.

Xu Wenjing looked embarrassed, now that he had just ended a war that was unnecessary, causing so many casualties, he was about to start a new journey before he had time to deal with the aftermath?

Thinking of this, Xu Wenjing said to Liu Ce: "Military Governor, isn't it too hasty to detonate the civil strife now?" We're not ready yet. ”

Ye Yin said: "Strategist, we are not ready, are we ready for the chaos?" I don't think that now is the best time to detonate this crisis, and we can control the casualties and losses to a minimum!

If the time drags on, when they are well prepared, no matter whether they win or lose, the soldiers and civilians of the Far East will cause even greater casualties than they have now! ”

Xu Wenjing turned around and just spoke, but saw Liu Ce waving his hand and said: "Needless to say, just implement the plan proposed by Ye Gongzi, and now start discussing the specific tactical arrangement." ”

Xu Wenjing sighed and said: "Since the military governor has made up his mind, and his subordinates no longer persuade each other, if you want to quickly calm the hidden crisis of civil strife, first of all, Jizhou cannot afford to lose, and you need to send a general who takes into account the overall situation to temporarily take charge of preventing Hunu in the north.

The subordinates suggested that Chen Yingenvoy be the chief general of the Jizhou army, temporarily command half of the Jizhou army, and cooperate with the rest of the departments to carry it out. ”

Liu Ce said: "Chen Qingsheng is calm and good at using troops, and the governor of this army also has this intention in his heart to let him temporarily take over the front-line military affairs, and quickly draft a book to appoint Chen Qing as the general of the southern Hebei garrison." ”

Xu Wenjing nodded, and then continued: "On the Yuanzhou side, his subordinates thought that they should send people to contact the Yuanzhou Governor's Mansion more, and I don't think he wanted to see his foundation territory fall into war......

Liu Ce said: "What the military advisor is worried about is that the military governor has discussed with Qin Mo Yebin before he came, and everything in Jizhou will be reported to them and the governor. ”

Xu Wenjing arched his hand and said: "Then it's time to study the movements of the chaotic army in the direction of the dark and how to deal with the situation after the outbreak of the war......

Liu Ce opened his eyes and said: "This is my responsibility as the military governor, the border troops in the Far East are like a plate of loose sand at the moment, I must stir this plate of loose sand together and hold it firmly in my hands, and I will move to Youzhou in a few days......"

Xu Wenjing immediately got up and said: "Military Governor, please think twice, Youzhou is not as good as before, I am afraid that something will happen to you if you move like this!" ”

Ye Yin's hand suddenly stopped when he heard this, and he said to Liu Ce: "The military governor is wise, this kind of courage is really admirable!" ”

"Ye Yin......" Xu Wenjing saw that Ye Yin's attitude was clearly supporting Liu Ce's move to Youzhou, and his face suddenly sank, "Why don't you ......?"

"Needless to say!" Liu Ce said slowly, "The affairs of the border army are urgent, this military governor does not want to occupy such a vacant position and let the situation continue to deteriorate, Youzhou will be handled by me personally, and there will be a lot of trouble with the labor division and Ye Gongzi in the direction of Dingzhou!" ”

Xu Wenjing nodded helplessly, and just spoke, but heard Ye Yin say to Liu Ce: "Military Governor, don't you hope to follow the Military Governor to Youzhou this time......"

"Huh?" Liu Ce groaned when he heard this, looked at Ye Yin's handsome and unsympathetic face, and finally nodded, "Yes!" ”

June 23, Youzhou border, Dasheng Pass......

Dasheng Pass is the only pass in Youzhou to resist Hu Nu going south, built between the dense forests surrounded by mountains, the pass wall is more than six zhang high, stretches for several miles, and looks very majestic and magnificent from a distance.

However, it is such an insurmountable wall in the eyes of the world, but it has not been able to prevent the iron hooves of the Hulan people from trampling on the land of Youzhou, and it has hardly stopped the invasion of Youzhou by foreign races for more than ten years.

Guarding the victory pass was the deployment of the three flag regiments under the command of Dong Tianke, the commander of the division flag. On the surface, it was 70,000 people, but in fact, the total strength of the border army remaining in the pass was only 7,000 or 8,000 at most, and the rest is unknown......

On the wall of the pass, a group of ragged soldiers leaned against the women's wall with a languid face, chatting from time to time on some topics of their own interest.

In the other corner, several border soldiers pulled off their pants and began to release the filth accumulated in their bodies, and the entire wall was filled with a disgusting stench.

A yellow-skinned soldier in his early thirties sat shirtless next to a veteran with also torn armor, took out a black coarse cloth from his belt, wiped the sweat stains, and then hung it around his neck.

I saw the soldier ask the veteran: "Captain Wang Jia, you haven't been paid for two months this time, right?" ”

Wang Jiachang closed his eyes and sneered: "In eight days, it will be three months, Lao Ji, how is your mother-in-law?" ”

Lao Ji smiled bitterly: "What else?" That's it, this disease won't get much better for a while......"

Wang Jiachang persuaded: "It's better to ask a doctor to take a look, it's not a solution for your daughter-in-law's illness to drag on like this......"

Lao Ji said angrily: "I also know, but now the family is almost unable to open the pot, several babies are screaming with hunger, and the salary is not paid, where will the money come from to hire a doctor?" ”

Wang Jiachang sighed: "Why don't you go and ask Liu Baihu and Liu Baichang to borrow some?" ”

Lao Ji said: "Ask him to borrow?" Do I have a life to pay back such a high profit! You don't look at what happened to those who asked him to borrow money? ”

Wang Jiachang said: "Then what can you do? Watching your children starve every day with wild vegetable soup? Watching his mother-in-law lie down and cough every day? ”

When Lao Ji heard this, he immediately hung his head and said, "Wang Jiachang? What do you say we are soldiers for? Aren't you exchanging your life for a full meal? But how can this be now?

I joined the army at the age of nineteen and have been in the army for twelve years now, and when Hu Nu came, I stuck to the side of the castle tower without any intimidation, and I poked them here with a broken gun, and drove them off the city wall.

You say that even if you don't have merit, there is hard work, right? But what will it look like now, look at what we are wearing, a military uniform has not been changed for seven or eight years, and this patch is almost full!

Look at these shoes again, these straw sandals are still knitted by my mother-in-law, and it turns out that the pair that has been broken can drill mice,

There is also this military salary, two or five dollars of silver a month, minus the regular money for paying taxes and honoring the boss, and it will only be one or two or seven dollars in the hand, and the silver is still deducted from time to time, how is this living? Now I can't even eat a full meal, alas~"

After hearing Lao Ji's sigh, Wang Jiachang closed his eyes helplessly and said, "This is fate, admit it!" Who cares if we live or die? ”

"Who cares?" Lao Ji muttered when he heard this, and suddenly said cautiously to Wang Jiachang: "Have you heard?" There is a big event happening here in the Far East, it seems that there is a new front army, what is going forward to take office, in charge of us border army soldiers, even Dong Shiqi and a few of their superiors have to look at him, and more importantly, that big official is also a poor-born ...... like us."

"Pull it down," Wang Jiachang said disdainfully...... "I've heard it a long time ago, it's called the former military governor, and you can also call it the military governor, but what does this have to do with us?" After all these years, you still can't see through it?

When did the official take care of the life and death of our big-headed soldiers, and now the military governor doesn't know which green building he is holding a jiàn) and the dignitaries and nobles drink and talk together, and be merry and happy......"

When Lao Ji heard this, the originally high Xu immediately calmed down, what Chief A said was right, who would pay attention to the life and death of the people below?

"Dangdangdang......"

"It's time to eat......"

At this moment, there was a knock on the wall accompanied by a weak shout.

All of a sudden, thousands of soldiers ran down like crazy on the wall, pushing me all the way. Wang Jiachang and Lao Ji glanced at each other, and they also joined the crowd of food grabbers.

An open field in the pass was full of crowded people with broken bowls, and it could be seen from their appearance that most of them were emaciated, apparently caused by long-term malnutrition.

"Don't squeeze the, a bowl of rice porridge per person, a 'stew', stand outside!"

The fat-headed, big-eared cook stood in front of a huge wooden barrel with a long spoon handle, shouting at the crowded border soldiers, and the crowd finally quieted a little.

"One by one, alas...... Take your ......"

A firehead cook pours spoonfuls of porridge water into the bowl in front of him, and then pours a spoonful of "stew" into the empty bowl he is holding up.

After Lao Ji got the lunch, he looked at the rice soup in the bowl that was like clear water, and the spoonful of "stewed vegetables", and finally couldn't help but turn around and say to the fat-headed and big-eared cook who was sitting on the side and picking his teeth: "Why do you eat this every day?" A few grains of millet poured with water are also considered porridge? And this stewed dish, it is clearly the swill fed to the pigs! ”

When the fat cook heard this, he sneered and walked up to him and said, "Why is it so unpalatable?" Oh, go to Houying to eat, a meal of one penny and silver, and you will be able to eat enough white flour and vegetables! ”

Lao Ji said angrily: "That was our previous food, why do we have to charge now?" Look at what we brothers eat every day. ”

The fat cook's eyes were cold, and he said to Lao Ji: "What are you yelling about, what are you yelling at?" What's the use of you being angry at me? If you have an opinion, tell the commander that this rule is not set by me! Cut...... If you don't like the food, then don't eat it......"

After speaking, the fat cook waved his hand and knocked over the food in Lao Ji's hand, and the rice and water swill were suddenly spilled on the ground.

"You ......" Lao Ji looked at the fat cook's smug look, and stared at him with clenched fists.

"What do you see? Not convinced? Look, owe a beating, damn it! ”

The fat cook saw Lao Ji's face full of anger, and a roar was a slap in the face, and he was immediately slapped to the ground. The surrounding border soldiers looked at this scene indifferently, and they had already become numb to these......
