"Liu Bei can step on **** luck wherever he goes." Ye Chen was very speechless when he received the news.

Liu Bei used Dong Zhuo to become big before, but now he has picked up an emperor, with Liu Xie's identity, and Yan Rou and Zhang Fei by his side, it is not difficult to imagine that it will not take long for him to become big again.

Ye Chen was also helpless, everyone had arrived in Nanyang, and he was too far away from Ye Chen, even if he wanted to make trouble, it was not so easy.

Ye Chen arranged the defense of Bingzhou, and then went back with the army, and left Bingzhou to the second-line garrison army to defend, but he still left a general.

Guan Yu temporarily stayed in Bingzhou, and Bingzhou could not be guarded without a general, Guan Yu was one of the most qualified generals, and he could completely suppress and merge the state.

There was another very important reason why Ye Chen was in such a hurry to go back.

That is, he is going to be a groom again, and this time the bride is the Luo Shen Zhen Mi he has been thinking about for a long time.

Zhen Mi's sister, Ye Chen has been thinking about it, it is so beautiful.

Delicate and cute, Ye Chen never gets tired of watching it, but it's a pity that he can't eat it all the time, but now that the time is ripe, he can eat it.

In this way, Ye Chen could still bear it, and as soon as the matter of the state was over, he went back with the army.

When I returned to Jixian County, it was already the middle of the year, and it was the hot summer season.

After coming back, Ye Chen let him choose a date and began to prepare.

This marriage will not be a big deal, after all, this is Ye Chen's first marriage.

The wedding is being planned, so there is no need for Ye Chen to worry about it, and he will not be so anxious when he comes back, because Zhen Mi's sister is there and can't run.

Ye Chen began to deal with government affairs.

"Feng Xiao, the five thousand war horses promised to Cao Cao were not given." Ye Chen asked.

"Lord, give it, why did you just give it this time?" Guo Jia asked with a smile.

"What if you don't give it? This time, Cao Cao played a great role in Bingzhou, and now Yuan Shao is still threatening our rear, and we have to rely on Cao Cao to attract firepower. Ye Chen said.

Of course, Guo Jia also knows this truth, but Cao Cao is an enemy after all, at least a potential enemy, and if he helps Cao Cao, he will have to fight back in the end.

Ye Chen asked again: "The city has been preliminarily completed, and the defense of Youzhou has been strengthened, so it's time for the whole army to prepare for expansion." I don't know what Bonghyo suggests. ”

Guo Jia was surprised, this Ye Chen has not been very active in expanding the army, unless necessary, he will try not to raise too many troops, but now why did he take the initiative to expand the army.

Guo Jia knows very well that Youzhou has great potential for army expansion, and it needs people, money, and equipment.

But Ye Chen has never been too enthusiastic about expanding the army.

"My lord, there is no big problem with expanding the army, you only need to transfer officers from various armies." Guo Jia said.

Ye Chen nodded, and then said: "Let Tai Shici prepare, expand his infantry to 20,000, and at the same time let Xu Huang expand his army to 10,000, so expand in the early stage, and the cavalry will not expand for the time being." ”

Expanding the infantry, Guo Jia was not surprised, the infantry was better than the cavalry when attacking the city, with the current number of infantry in Liaodong, it was not enough to launch a storm, and if it was necessary to attack the city in the future, the infantry would also be needed to attack the city wall.

Infantry and cavalry are both very important, and when the two are combined, the power will be greater.

Youzhou has always been dominated by cavalry, and now the number of infantry is expanding, which is also the rhythm of fighting.

If he didn't expand the army before, it's not that Ye Chen didn't understand, Ye Chen knew the importance of the army better than anyone else.

But Ye Chen has to feed a large family, and this family is not his small family, but the entire force.

Millions of people want to be rich, stable, and identify with him, and this requires his constant development.

Now that Youzhou has developed, there is money, food, and weapons, and it is relatively easy to get an army.

Not to mention Ye Chen, the affairs of Youzhou are developing steadily.

Let's talk about Liu Bei, Liu Bei has big ambitions.

He entered Nanyang, controlled Wancheng, and then began to control government affairs.

began to purge, using the emperor's name to eliminate dissidents, and replacing all the officials in Nanyang with his people.

At the same time, Liu Bei began to recruit troops and expand his military strength.

"Ye Chen, Ye Chen, you made me almost die in Chang'an, let me break with Dong Zhuo, and occupy my territory, now it's time for me to take revenge." Liu Bei sat by himself and thought secretly.

The more Liu Bei thought about it, the more angry he became, and finally clenched his fists and slammed the table hard, making his guards startled.

"Come on, let Your Majesty send down a holy decree, Ye Chen is a thief, deprive him of the title of Marquis of Xiangping, and remove him from the positions of General Zhenbei and Youzhou Mu."

Liu Bei finally thought of a poisonous plan to deprive Ye Chen of everything, Liu Bei knew the role of the name, which would definitely deal a major blow to Ye Chen's reputation.

Cracking down on Ye Chen's legitimacy may also lead to civil strife in Youzhou.

At the beginning, Ye Chen asked Liu Wei to make an order to make Yuan Shao a thief, Yuan Shao encountered huge trouble, the reputation of the Yuan family was greatly damaged, and many families in Jizhou also separated from him, and even Xun Yu ran away directly and lived in seclusion.

Now that Liu Bei is learning Ye Chen's moves to deal with Ye Chen, thinking about it makes Liu Bei excited.

At this moment, Liu Bei seemed to be the emperor himself, and the emperor wanted to issue a holy decree according to his will.

A few days later, the holy decree reached Ye Chen's hands.

"You are not small, you dare to read this kind of holy decree, why don't you use it to wipe your ass halfway?" Ye Chen looked at the eunuch who came to announce the decree with a smile and said.

The eunuch had never seen the world, and at first thought that he had come by holy order, and he was extremely noble and could be arrogant, but when he arrived in Youzhou, he knew that no one took him seriously.

Ye Chen's question was an understatement, as if this holy decree was not a holy decree, but just a piece of waste paper.

Ye Chen waved his hand and said, "Go back and tell Liu Bei that I have accepted the holy decree, and it will be displayed publicly for everyone to see, and it will be placed in the vegetable market for everyone to know." ”

The eunuch came out in a daze, but he didn't know what was going on.

According to Liu Bei's thoughts, this eunuch should not have gone back alive, but Ye Chen had no intention of killing him.

What is the point of killing a eunuch who has proclaimed an edict.

"Lord, this Liu Bei is quite bold, thinking that the emperor can do whatever he wants in his hands, he thinks he is Dong Zhuo, and he actually uses the lord's method to deal with the lord." Guo Jia said with a smile.

"I can get to this part, not by family, not by identity, but by the people of Liaodong to get here, it is not an exaggeration to say that the people of my Youzhou are only me Ye Chen, and there is no emperor, the emperor has no role here, and how much influence does such a Han family have on ordinary people."

The Han family still has a huge influence now, or for a long time to come, but that is for the big families, for those who have read books, and for the people who come, it is the sky that can give them food, and the sky is bigger than the emperor.
