After a night talk with his younger brother, Han Won summoned his officers for a discussion on the second day. After the unanimous decision of everyone, Han Yuan finally took Ma Erhan as the temporary leader and Hu Erhu as the deputy leader, and ordered the two to lead 10,000 officers and soldiers to Dongning and Bei'an.

Han Won's troops are limited, so naturally he won't do such a stupid thing as dividing troops and stationing troops in the city, and he actually has another purpose in doing so.

These 10,000 soldiers came to the two prefectures, which could show the strength of the won and give officials everywhere a deterrent, so that they would not dare to disobey in front of them in the future; On the other hand, in order to control local officials, Han Won came up with a conspiracy: every time the army arrived in a city, three to four hundred sharp soldiers were selected from the army and stationed around the mansions of local officials, in the name of 'protecting' their families, but in fact they were blackmailing.

Officials from all over the country did not know the means of the won at first, and when they saw the army approaching the city, they did not dare to resist, so they all opened the door and let them go, but when they knew the true intentions of the won, it was too late.

In this way, the officials whose families were controlled naturally did not dare to play tricks anymore, and the won easily controlled all the places under their rule.

However, it was only a stopgap measure for the Korean won to do so, and he knew that it was a bit excessive. The officials of the two governments hindered the safety of their families, and although they were respectful to him on the surface, they were afraid that they hated him in private. In the long run, the situation in Chuzhou will still be biased in favor of Bai Junwu.

In fact, these are just contingency measures, Han Won has his own ideas, and his real plan is still to come.

Ma Erhan, who was leading troops outside, received orders from Han Yuan one after another, and Han Yuan ordered him to expand his army on the spot every time he entered a city. Han Won's meaning, hoping that he can go out with 10,000 people and come back with 20,000 people.

Ma Erhan, who received the order, couldn't help but worry, it was already the limit to bring more than 10,000 soldiers and horses by himself. Moreover, because of the distance from Nanping Province, the logistical supply of the army has become more and more problematic.

Ma Erhan is not like the western thief, he burns and loots everywhere he goes, he leads the troops in an orderly manner, and he has always committed no crime against the citizens and gentry. But because of this, he left an impression that the locals were easy to talk to, and then when the army was short of food, Ma Erhan asked the local gentry to help them, but everyone was reluctant to cooperate.

No, Ma Erhan had no choice but to ask Han Yuan for instructions, hoping that he would send more people to transport grain and grass, otherwise his 10,000 people might not last long.

Han Yuan received Ma Erhan's complaint and was speechless. This thief, let's call him stupid, he behaves more shrewdly than anyone else when it matters. Let's say he is shrewd, but he is twisted and indecisive in such a trivial matter.

Han Yuan immediately replied, telling him to replenish the grain and grass on the spot, and if he encountered Diao Min who did not obey his fate, he would be slaughtered directly with a knife, killing chickens and monkeys. It's really ridiculous, didn't this Ma Erhan learn a few words, and really think of himself as a reader, right? If you have a guy in your hand, why bother snorting?

After Ma Erhan got Han won's permission, his attitude immediately hardened, and after killing a few rich families who refused to cooperate, the food problem of the army was temporarily alleviated.

…

Han Won acted decisively and resolutely, and it didn't take long for him to control the land of the two prefectures, and it was already two months later for Bai Junwu of Fucheng to receive the news.

Bai Junwu suddenly felt bad, although he was not messing around in the state city during this time, he had also been recruiting troops and horses, collecting military salaries, grain and grass, but Han Yuan's tricks were obviously much better than him.

"What to do, what to do?"

In the backyard of the Marshal's Mansion, Bai Junwu frowned and walked around talking to himself.

He also tried to gather his generals together to discuss, but most of those Qiu Ba were simple-minded and only knew how to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle, and there was no other meaningful opinion.

Bai Junwu has been leading troops to fight for some time, although he was born in a family, he is usually moody and short-tempered, but he is quite cautious in doing things. Even if it is not a very deep city, it is by no means a reckless man.

Bai Junwu wandered in the backyard for half a day, during which the steward Ma reminded him several times to eat, but he was driven away.

Steward Ma saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. How can you do it if you don't eat, if it goes on like this, the won in Nanping will be unscathed, and the little grandfather will fall ill first.

"Marshal, would you like to eat something first? The kitchen prepares your favorite roast suckling pig for you. Steward Ma persuaded.

Bai Junwu roared impatiently: "Don't eat, don't eat!" Get out of the way, you old man! Hugh went to Ben Shuai to touch the mold! ”

Steward Ma couldn't, so he had to comfort him: "Lord Marshal, just rely on that won to order troops, you can't make any big waves, you still take care of your body." ”

"You know what? If it goes on like this, it won't be long before Ben Shuai will be surrounded by that kid in Chuzhou City! I don't know how I'll die when the time comes! The more Bai Junwu thought about it, the more terrifying he felt.

Steward Ma thought secretly for a moment, shook his head and said, "Lord Marshal, you are worrying too much. That won doesn't have that much ability, and besides, we won't sit still. ”

"Huh? How so? You make it clear to me! ”

Bai Junwu hates Steward Ma's sloppy character, and he should be straightforward and frank when he speaks, and he should talk about it at one time.

Steward Ma organized his language for a moment and replied: "Lord Marshal, the old slave thinks that even if Han Yuan controls the other two provinces, he may not dare to attack the state capital. ”

Bai Junwu said in disbelief: "Why don't you dare? If I get the land of Sanfu, I will definitely do my best to take the state city. ”

Steward Ma smiled: "Have you forgotten that there is a Yuezhou next to this Chuzhou." You can ask Zhongzhou for instructions, and let King Wu give those Qiu Bafeng officials a knight, and the word is the head, and you are not afraid that they will not be moved. ”

"Well, that's true."

Bai Junwu nodded, such a simple truth, why didn't he think of it. Once he and Yuezhou are involved, Han Yuan will be the enemy.

"Yes, old horse, no wonder my father trusts you so much, your head is really bright." Bai Junwu said with a rare compliment.

"The old slave is just a bystander." Steward Ma said modestly.

With Steward Ma's reminder, Bai Junwu's train of thought was also opened.

"In my opinion, not only can we contact Yuezhou to attack the Korean won, but Zhongzhou can also take the opportunity to ask for some money, food, and armor. Now in this Great Xia Kingdom, except for the local officials of Wuzhou and Qizhou who clearly expressed their support for King Wu, they also have a clear banner, and most of the other states have an ambiguous attitude. I don't believe King Wu would refuse my request. ”

Bai Junwu said this to Steward Ma, after all, there were few think tanks around him.

"Wonderful! With the material assistance of King Wu, why should we be afraid of the won? The marshal is worthy of being from a big family, and this insight is really admired by the old slave. ”

Steward Ma lost no time in patting the horses, this is also his occupational disease, when he was in the Guogong Mansion, he patted Bai Jingwen's ass every day, and when he came here, he naturally wanted to shoot Bai Junwu's ass.

Bai Junwu didn't care about this, and ordered: "Without further ado, you quickly send two groups of people out of the city, one to Zhongzhou to ask for money, and the other to Yuezhou to ask for help." ”

Steward Ma was ordered to retreat.

"Heh, Han won, I see what you are fighting with me!" Bai Junwu said secretly in his heart.
