In the study room of the Yangxin Palace in the Imperial Palace of Canglong City, Liu Heng, the son of the Great Jin Dynasty, slapped the bookcase in front of him fiercely, and then said to Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites: "Uncle, Dou Yan and Yang Zhong are getting more and more excessive, and they even dare to hide the news of the guerrilla general Liu Ji's victory over the 520,000 troops of the sixteen tribes of the grassland, what are they going to do?" Is there still a son of heaven in my eyes! ”

Zhou Qingyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the reason why the officials of the family headed by the six Taiwei want to hide the news of Liu Ji's victory over the 520,000 army of the sixteen clans of the grassland is just to buy time for each family, and secretly take the first step to win over that Liu Ji. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Liu Heng, the Son of Heaven, said unwillingly: "Uncle, do you just watch Dou Yan and Yang Zhong win over the border generals like this, you must know that Liu Ji has now formed an army of 250,000, which is an army of 250,000!" Uncle, how about you say that I directly let the queen mother make an order and promote Liu Ji to the general of the chariot cavalry? Will that Liu Ji be loyal to me? ”

"The emperor must not do this, if the emperor and the queen mother do this, it is almost equivalent to turning their faces with Dou Yan and Yang Zhong, they will never let the emperor and the queen mother control the military power, in addition, they currently control the military power of the 800,000 forbidden army in the capital, once they think that the emperor and the queen mother are a threat to them, then they are likely to take risks, the emperor first...... Alas-" Zhou Qingyao mentioned Liu Heng's father, Liu Wei, and couldn't help but sigh gloomily and didn't continue.

Liu Heng, the Son of Heaven, suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle, did you say that my father was killed by Dou Yan and Yang Zhong?" ”

"Don't say it, the emperor, if this sentence spreads, something big will happen!" Zhou Qingyao said urgently.

"Uncle, rest assured, the eunuchs and palace maids of the Heart Cultivation Palace will definitely not come close here, what I said to my uncle, only God knows that you know and I know, and it will not enter the ears of the third person, and I am still sure to do this in the Heart Cultivation Palace!" Uncle, you tell me, was my father killed by Dou Yan and Yang Zhong? ”

Zhou Qingyao sighed and said: "The first emperor has always been in good health, and the first emperor also has a good martial arts, but he suddenly had an emergency and died young, so the minister was a little suspicious, but he never found any evidence. ”

"Uncle, do you also suspect that your father was killed?"

"Your Majesty, listen to the advice of the ministers, don't mention these words in the future, at least don't mention them again until the emperor takes back the military power of the 800,000 forbidden troops in the capital."

Liu Heng, the son of heaven, wanted to say something, but then Zhou Qingyao said again: "Your Majesty, Liu Chong, the governor of Qianzhou, should be regarded as our person, those families want to win over Liu Ji in secret, we can also win him in secret, and the emperor can Liu Chong to do this." ”

Liu Heng, the Son of Heaven, immediately nodded and said: "This is also a way, Liu Chong is a disciple of the clan, and he can still be trusted, then I will immediately send someone to send Liu Chong a secret decree, so that he must draw Liu Ji into my camp." ”

On July 4, 426 of the Great Jin Dynasty, among the county officials in Chengyin City, Liu Ji did not know that he had become a fragrant glutton, not only some people in Qianzhou were beating his idea, but even the top families of the Great Jin Dynasty had several families who were ready to win him over, and even the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty was ready to win over Liu Ji through Liu Chong, the governor of Qianzhou.

Maybe Liu Ji's army of 250,000 is nothing, but Liu Ji's army can defeat the army of 520,000 of the 16 tribes of the grassland, which makes everyone can't help but pay attention to Liu Ji.

Liu Ji summoned some of his generals to the county government today, including 16 cavalry battalion commanders Yang Zaixing, Zhou Kai, Hua Xiong, Su Lie, Wu Liang, Qu Tutong, Le Jin, Yu Ban, Chen Wu, Pan Zhang, Zang Ba, Cao Xiu, Yan Yan, Feng Sheng, Lin Chong, and Guan Sheng, as well as 10 infantry battalion commanders Le Yi, Wei Xiaokuan, Gao Shun, Xu Rong, Zhang Guiba, Zhang Guihou, Zhang Guiben, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang.

Liu Ji said to the twenty-six lieutenants: "Now the sixteen cavalry battalions and ten infantry battalions have been fully equipped, and then the battalions must pay close attention to training, although we have defeated the 520,000 army of the sixteen grassland tribes led by the Lou Fu tribe and the Wuheng tribe, but we must not relax our vigilance, we must know that the northern steppe is vast, there are many nomads, and there are three nomads who are stronger than the Lou Fan and Wuheng tribes, the Xiongnu, Xianbei and Khitan, the three strongest nomads on the grassland, We're definitely not friends, and we might be able to meet them at any time. ”

Yang Zaixing immediately said: "Don't worry, my lord, with so many of our brothers, even if the Huns, Xianbei and Khitan, our Chengyin army is not afraid, who dares to provoke us, the 520,000 army of the sixteen tribes of the grassland is an example!" ”

Liu Ji said with a smile: "With so many fierce generals of you, of course General Ben is not afraid of any clan of the grassland, and when you train the soldiers of each battalion into elites, General Ben is also ready to lead troops to directly attack the grassland and grab things!" ”

At this time, Qu Tutong asked Liu Ji: "Lord, the livestock in our hands now can fully feed 250,000 soldiers, 110,000 auxiliary soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people for a period of time, but has always been a staple food on meat, isn't it too extravagant, and relying solely on slaughtering livestock for food, the speed of consumption of livestock is too fast." ”

Before Liu Ji could speak, Le Yi said out loud: "The lord has already contacted a big grain merchant in Jue County, Changping County, Yongzhou, this big grain merchant was met by the lord after he exterminated the Yama King Ridge, and now he is transporting the first batch of 200,000 stone grain to our Chengyin County, and we will buy a batch of grain from this big grain merchant every month in the future." ”

One stone of grain is equal to 120 catties, Liu Ji bought rice, wheat, millet, and soybeans from the big grain merchant, and paid a high price, the price per catty is 8 copper coins, you must know that in Yongzhou, these grains do not exceed 5 copper coins per catty, but you have to count the freight of others, and you have to let the family earn more, otherwise who is willing to risk sending so much grain to Chengyin County, the border county of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Liu Ji continued: "Rest assured, our soldiers and civilians in Chengyin County will not go hungry, in addition to purchasing grain, some land in Chengyin County and Longchang County has been cultivated, and we can harvest a lot of grain in the autumn." ”

Longchang County was no longer populated before, so Liu Ji unceremoniously put Longchang County into his sphere of influence.
