After the new wheat harvest and the grain eased slightly, Liu Shi ordered Li Ru to arrange for some people to slowly start to migrate from Nanyang and Shangluo to settle in Chang'an. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Now there are 600,000 people in Nanyang and 110,000 merchants, and Liu Shi plans to move 200,000 from Nanyang first, 30,000 merchants, a total of 230,000 people to come to Chang'an.

At the same time, it was announced: Those who come to settle in Chang'an will be rewarded with three acres of land per person and rent-free for one year.

Under the arrangement of Lu Su and Li Ru, the crowds on the Wuguan Road from Chang'an to Nanyang kept coming and going, helping the old and the young, and there was an endless stream.

In order to ensure that the people came to Chang'an smoothly, Li Ru also set up porridge sheds and post houses along the way for people to rest and eat.

Chang'an and the land of Sanfu are also gradually becoming lively.

Liu Shi received the resettlement situation and thought secretly: "In another year, the situation in these three auxiliary places will be better." ”

Liu Shi decided to recover and annex the state to ensure the safety of Chang'an and Luoyang.

Hedong Anyi, Liu Shi gathered everyone to discuss the matter.

Fa Zhengdao: "Since Zhongping, the Yellow Turban rebellion, the court is unable to look north, the Southern Xiongnu broke Yanmen, occupied Taiyuan, Shangdang, and Hanoi and Hedong. Although General Gongsun appointed the history of the state assassin, but General Gongsun fought with Yuan Benchu for a long time, and had no time to take care of anything else, and the appointed history of the state was driven away by the Xiongnu, and has been occupied by the Southern Xiongnu so far. ”

Liu Shi nodded and looked at Fa Zheng approvingly.

Fa Zheng was overjoyed in his heart, and said: "It is estimated that there are more than 100,000 Southern Xiongnu in the current state, and nearly 50,000 soldiers can fight. In addition to guarding the passes, Yongzhou can recruit up to 70,000 soldiers, and it is not impossible to recover the annexed state. It is only necessary to seize Taiyuan and Yanmen with a thunderous force, cut off the connection between the Xiongnu and several places, and then divide and surround them, and eliminate them one by one, and it will be done. ”

Li Ru objected: "Xiaozhi's words are too optimistic, although our army has 70,000 usable soldiers, but these 70,000 soldiers, most of them are Tuntian soldiers, they have no combat experience, and the defense of the city is acceptable. Once this kind of thing happens, it will affect the security of Chang'an and Hedong. At the same time, this year is when a large number of people are migrating and the food supply is tight, so we must try to be as stable as possible, increase the number of tuntian, and ensure the food security of Chang'an and Luoyang. I think that at present, it is only appropriate to seize Taiyuan and Shangdang to consolidate the security of Chang'an, Hedong, and Luoyang. After Yongzhou's strength increases, it will expand outward. ”

Fa Zheng retorted: "Now that General Gongsun is fighting with Yuan Benchu, he has no time to take care of anything else, and Yongzhou is justified in the order of the Son of Heaven to capture the entire territory of Bingzhou. Once General Gongsun and Yuan Benchu divide the winners and losers, they will be involved in the annexation of the state, and with the prestige of the two of them, it will be determined how we can fulfill the will of the Son of Heaven at that time. Besides, there is no grain, as long as we seize and annex the state, the Xiongnu have more cattle and sheep, these can naturally be used as some military food supplements, how to say that there is a shortage of military food? ”

Li Ru said: "Only the courage of the horseman, once it is stuck with the Huns, Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Xianbei join forces to attack, how can our army resist?" Moreover, if Yuan Benchu wins, and Yu Yong fights with me for Shangdang, Taiyuan, Yanmen, and even Hedong and Chang'an, what will happen to us? ”

Fa Zheng was dumbfounded. Ma Teng and Han Sui were supported by the first Lingqiang, Hu Yueqiang and other ethnic groups. And there are a lot of them in the north, Xianbei is even more eyeing in Xihe, and Kou plundering Chang'an is a frequent occurrence, but he feels that now is an opportunity, and it is a pity to lose it.

Liu Shi heard them arguing, waved his hand and said: "Wen You is right, Yuan Benchu has the help of Wu Heng, this time General Gongsun may really be defeated in the hands of Yuan Benchu." It just depends on the degree, if Brother Gongsun can hold on, Yuan Benchu will not be able to attack the party, but he will recruit celebrities and sages to come out to echo him, and he only needs to send one person or appoint one person to get the party. With Yuan Benchu's current momentum, as long as he gets the party, the Xiongnu will definitely be attached, and then we will be powerless. ”

After pausing and seeing Li Ru's anxious face, he said: "Of course, food is also a big problem, we can't rely on Nanyang for a long time, we must let Chang'an be able to protect itself." However, Shangdang and Taiyuan will not be recovered, and Chang'an and Hedong will be difficult to protect. ”

Liu Shi said in an accentuated tone: "I decided to occupy Shangdang first, encroach on Taiyuan, and ensure the safety of Chang'an, Luoyang, and Hedong." Ordered Zilong and Xiaozhi to take Li Kan and Cheng Yin to lead 30,000 to the party, and Yan Rou and Zhang Xiu led 10,000 to guard Puzi. After the party was stabilized, it was stationed in Taiyuan and gradually expelled the Xiongnu. ”

At this moment, Shi Jian hurriedly walked out, and after a while, he hurriedly ran in, and whispered to Liu Shi: "General Gongsun has been defeated under the joint attack of Yuan Benchu, Wu Heng, and Liu Youzhou's old army, and Yuan Benchu has announced that his nephew Gao Gan is the assassin of Bingzhou and is marching towards Bingzhou. Luoyang also seems to be unstable, Dong Cheng and Han Xian are fighting, Han Xian is strong, but most of the ministers of the court support Dong Cheng, so now it is evenly matched, and Lord Huangfu Li asked the lord to prepare early. ”

Liu Shi was shocked, and then said: "Zilong and Xiao Zhi quickly led three thousand light horses to the party, and Yuan Benchu has announced that Gao Gan is the assassin of the state. You wait until you get to the party and immediately occupy Huguan and wait for backup. If he has arrived, he will take advantage of his unstable foothold and drive him out, and the big Han is not his Yuan Benchu. ”

Liu Shi originally wanted to go back to the house to see Mi Zhen, but now that the situation is urgent, he had to change his mind and instructed Liu Zheng to say a few words, let Yan Rou and Zhang Xiu go to Puxian County quickly, and personally bring more than 25,000 people to receive the party for the rear army.

After a while, Liu Shi came to Liu Hu again.

Liu Shidao: "I think Zilong has 3,000 light horses, but the light horses are fast, but it is not conducive to defending the city, you quickly bring 5,000 foot soldiers, reinforcements from Jingjing Pass, Yuan Shao is powerful, beware of local wealthy families, family sneak attack." ”

Liu Hu said: "Walking the well path has to go through the road, since the wild king has closed the well path, what should I do if Zhang Yang blocks it?" ”

Liu Shi sneered: "Before he reacts, occupy the well diameter, how can he endure me." Later, I will write another letter, and he will be helpless to think about it, after all, it is the intention of the Son of Heaven to protect the state, even if he is very dissatisfied. However, you have to move fast, ignore the people who have fallen behind, and don't let Zhang Yang get entangled, then it will be troublesome. Remember! ”

Liu Hu nodded and said, "Got it!" It's just that in this way, it is necessary to guard against Zhang Yang's sneak attack on Hedong. ”

Liu Shi smiled: "I will let Ziming guard the Jiguan." You must arrive within six days, and the rations will be fed on the spot. ”

Zhao Yun led 3,000 light cavalry to Changping, and the forward probe Ma came to report, "The Changping royal family has responded to Yuan Shao's order and organized 2,000 slaves to close the city gate, and found that the 3,000 men and horses sent by the high cadres to receive Changping are only 30 miles away. Zhao Yun and Fa Zheng glanced at each other, and Fa Zheng said: "Don't want the eldest son, go straight to the Hukou Pass, and ambush the high-level pioneers." ”

Zhao Yun nodded, gave the order to go down, and walked around the city.

Three thousand Yuan Shao pioneers were in a hurry, just arrived at an open place, the pioneer Deng Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Gao Gan asked him to be careful, saying that the new hussar general, Yongzhou Mu has been ordered by the Son of Heaven to guard and merge the state, and the east of the river is also incorporated into Yongzhou, so that the party is Liu Shi's must take the place. However, the party is equally important to Jizhou, which has just won a great victory against You, and it can be seen from Heluo and Chang'an. If you lose Shangdang, Jizhou will have no danger to defend, and it is also a must-win place.

This place is Hukou Pass and the eldest son must be the road, the terrain is open, I saw the brigade riding from a distance, a horn, sharp and piercing, Zhao Yun let go of his hand, the white horse turned over, Zhao Yun raised his body, his body gently fell on the horse's back, and took the lead in pounceing on Yuan Shao's army, in an instant, the spear danced, in the screams of the Yuan army, killed a bloody road, when the Yuan army had not woken up, there was also a team of men and horses rushing on the other side, and the army was cut into countless small groups in an instant.

All kinds of voices were mixed together, and I saw flesh and blood flying, and silver light flashing.

Zhao Yun saw that someone in Yuan Shao's army on the opposite side was shouting loudly, and many people also gathered over, and it seemed that a general immediately approached him. At this time, the generals of the Yuan army on the opposite side also saw Zhao Yun running over, and the eyes of the two sides were on the same page, and a sense of war ignited in their eyes. The person on the other side shouted, "Come and get your name known." Zhao Yun said loudly: "Changshan Zhao Yun." ”

"What? Gongsun Zan's White Horse Yi from Zhao Yun? The visitor exclaimed.

Hearing the collision of swords and guns, a strong force took Deng Shenglian and his horse back several steps.

When Deng Sheng was panicking, Zhao Yun slapped the horse, the white horse rushed forward, and Zhao Yun swung his spear, and immediately swept Deng Sheng down.

Zhao Yun pointed the tip of the gun against Deng Sheng and said: "Stand up, let your troops lay down their weapons, spare you if you don't die, otherwise you will all die!" ”

Deng Sheng's face turned pale, and he endured it and said loudly: "Put down your weapons!" Drop your weapon! ”
