Liu Wei finally accepted the one-year task of destroying Yuan Shu issued by the system, and still remembered that when he destroyed Dong Zhuo and regained Chang'an, Liu Wei also accepted the task issued by the system to destroy a prince within three years, but Liu Wei was in a state of recuperation and failed to complete this task. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info fortunately, there is no punishment for this task, and there is no big problem if it is not completed.

But today's task, although the rewards are rich, the system will give a talent above 99 commanders. In other words, these people are very likely to be peerless commanders such as Yue Fei, Li Jing, and Xu Da. But in the case of a generous reward, the relative punishment is also heavy, if the task is not completed, among Liu Wei's forces, there will be a military general above who will die.

In other words, Yang Zaixing, Zhao Yun, Xue Rengui, Wu Yunzhao, Luo Shixin, and Qin Qiong are very likely to be in danger of their lives.

Hearing Liu Wei accept the task, the system said coldly: "One year, today is the twenty-first day of the seventh month, which means that before the twenty-first day of July next year, Yuan Shu must be directly killed by the host forces, or they will capture and sacrifice it to the host for punishment." If it is done by other princes, it will not be counted! ”

"I know!" Liu Wei waved his hand, sat down from his seat, and took out a few pieces of rice paper to write. After writing, Liu Wei put it into an envelope and called the guards: "Send this letter to Qingzhou!"

"Your Majesty!" The guard took the letter and went to handle it.

Liu Wei finished planning this matter, and then re-handled government affairs, and in Luoyang City, all the ministers performed their duties, and Xun Yu raised grain and grass from all sides to prepare for the expedition. More than a month has passed, and time has come to the end of summer in a blink of an eye. For more than a month, Liu Wei has been staying in the imperial city, handling government affairs during the day, and wandering among the concubines at night, enjoying the joy of family.

In the middle of September, Liu Wei once again took 10,000 imperial forest troops, under the protection of Yang Miaozhen, Yang Yansi, Dian Wei, Guo Jia and others, escorted the raised grain and grass to Wancheng.

At the beginning of October of the first year of Jian'an, Liu Wei arrived in Wancheng.

Compared with Wancheng more than a month ago, today's Wancheng can be described as a great change, the city is crowded, people are selling along the street, and the joy is extraordinary. Liu Wei was very satisfied with the earth-shaking changes that had taken place in Wancheng, and the army was stationed in the military camp outside the city, and went to Wancheng Taishou Mansion with Wang Meng, Yang Zaixing, Fang Xuanling and others who came to greet him.

Everyone sat down in a divided manner, and Liu Wei smiled and said: "It's only been a month since I left, and the changes in Wancheng are changing with each passing day, you have been careful during this time!"

The original Nanyang, the government decree is unknown, the economic depression is just one month, Wang Meng and others have changed the atmosphere in Nanyang, Liu Wei asked himself if it was him, and he didn't have this ability, so he admired Wang Meng and others from the bottom of his heart.

"Jing Luo, can you tell me about the situation in Nanyang?" Liu Wei said.

Wang Meng bowed his hand and said: "During the period of Your Majesty's absence, Weichen and others have counted Nanyang's household registration, restored Nanyang's legal system, and governed Nanyang in accordance with the laws of the land under His Majesty's jurisdiction!" Now stability has been restored everywhere in Nanyang. ”

Liu Wei nodded and said, "It's good, how many people are there in Nanyang now?"

"There are 235,683 households in Nanyang, and 1,034,564 mouths!" Wang Meng replied.

Nanyang has a population of more than a million? The generals were overjoyed when they heard this, but the Wenchen bowed their heads and were silent, and sure enough, Liu Wei slapped the table and said: "When the Han population was the largest, there were 528,551 households in Nanyang, and 2,439,618 mouths!" Now it has dropped by more than 1.4 million! It's all my fault! ”

The generals didn't know this, and when they heard that the population of Nanyang had plummeted by half, they all said: "This Yuan thief is so hateful, he actually caused the population of Nanyang to drop by half, Your Majesty should send troops as soon as possible to exterminate this thief!"

These generals did not know the reason for the sharp decline in Nanyang, but Wenchen knew that the first was the political darkness during the Huan Ling period, the emperor did not care about the government and politics, and the people were miserable. Later, in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Nanyang was the hardest hit area. Later, Yuan Shu took control of Nanyang and destroyed Nanyang.

Yuan Shu destroyed Nanyang and could only occupy a small head, and the reason why the population of Nanyang was sharply reduced by half was because the Han Dynasty had no way to govern it. But Wenchen knew this reason, but he couldn't say it! They can't say that the first emperor is incompetent, and it has nothing to do with His Majesty, right? Liu Bian's face was depressed and he said: "Let's reduce and exempt Nanyang's taxes for three years, release more policies to benefit the people, and strive to restore the prosperity of Nanyang back then!"

Liu Wei waved his hand, and said that he wanted Nanyang to be a strategy and a population of Nanyang. But this number has disappeared in the time in front of Liu Bian's eyes, a million people, in decades, although it is just a data, but Liu Bian, who has personally experienced life in the late Han Dynasty, understands how much suffering it contains.

"Your Majesty is merciful!" The Wenchen had nothing to say, and they had to say this after being silent for a while.

"By the way, Your Majesty, now the Xun family has settled in Wudang County, there is a Wudang Mountain in Wudang County, the scenery is beautiful, it can be described as a famous mountain and river, Xun Gong wants to establish a academy in Wudang, what does Your Majesty think?" Wang Meng asked.

"Wudang Mountain?" Liu Wei nodded, Wudang Mountain is in the future generations, and it is also where the famous mountains and rivers are. Liu Wei said with a smile: "The outstanding people of Wudang Mountain, the students who were bred are of course people with both talent and morality, so they established Wudang College in Wudang Mountain, with Xun Shuang as the first dean, and his nephew Xun Yan and Xun Chen assisted him!"

Wudang Academy? What does Liu Wei think about it, it is awkward, Wudang Mountain is a holy land of martial arts in later generations, and now he is forming an academy in Wudang, how does it sound like a martial arts school?

"My court is only responsible for raising funds to form an academy and printing books, as for the internal structure, let the Xun family be in charge of him, Xun Gong's virtue and talent are all over the world, and he knows many people in the same way, just ask them to be teachers!" Liu Wei said in a deep voice.

"Obey the order!" A group of civil officials surrendered their orders.

Liu Wei seemed to remember something, and said with a smile: "This is a student from Nanyang, I can't let other forces take it, after these talents are completed, as a reserve resource, I will use these people to govern the south in the future!"

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the talents produced by Wudang Academy will definitely be guarded!"

The main purpose of Liu Bian's establishment of the academy is talents, and the talents of Wudang Academy, Liu Biao must prepare in advance and use them to govern the south.

After these things were explained, Liu Wei finally asked about the situation in Fancheng, and Wang Meng replied: "In Fancheng, Liu Yu and Fu Youde disposed of the corpses according to His Majesty's words, and there was no plague. Now Fancheng has been rebuilt and has a new look. The two of them have already followed His Majesty's instructions and led an army of 20,000 to train the navy! ”

Liu Wei nodded, the affairs of Nanyang and the changes when he returned to Luoyang during this time have also been figured out, now back to business, attack Yuan Shu up, Liu Wei said in a deep voice: "I have carried a lot of grain and grass with the army this time, and now Luoyang and other places have had a bumper harvest, and the follow-up grain and grass will be delivered one after another, which is enough for our army to attack Yuan Shu, and our army can rest assured that Yuan Shu will be attacked!"

"There are 30,000 troops in Chang Yuchun on the front line, and there are 10,000 troops in Wancheng, send these 10,000 troops to the front line and transfer them to Chang Yuchun, I will lead 10,000 imperial forest troops to sit in Wancheng, Yang Zaixing, Yang Yansi will go to Chang Yuchun to listen to orders!" Liu Wei ordered.

"The last will obey!" Yang Zaixing and the two came out.

Liu Wei looked at Wang Meng and asked: "Jingluo, Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian are each stationed in Yuzhou, on the border of the Lujiang River, and our army attracts the main force of Yuan's army in Runan, how should we fight?"

The soldiers and horses sent to the front line by Liu Wei were all handed over to Chang Yuchun's command, and there were only 40,000, and the army under Yuan Shu was at least 200,000. According to Liu Wei's strategy, he attracted the main force in Runan, and Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian sent troops on both sides, so they had to be unstoppable. In other words, Liu Wei has to hold back at least the 100,000 troops of Yuan's army, but Chang Yuchun only has 40,000 soldiers and horses, how can he fight to hold down the 100,000 main force?

Yuan Shu only sent an army of 50,000 to deal with Chang Yuchun in Runan, so Zhao Kuangyin in the north and south, and Sun Jian could not succeed, or it was not easy to succeed.

Faced with this problem, Liu Wei asked Wang Meng for advice.

Wang Meng pondered for a moment and said: "Now in Runan, Yuan Shu sent Zhang Xun to preside over the war, and Hou Junji was the deputy, with an army of 50,000!" But Zhang Xun is not a general, although he was named a general by Yuan Shu, he is far less experienced than Hou Junji, and there are contradictions between the two, and they can't be united! If you want to drag the main force of the Yuan army in Runan, you can only take advantage of the flaw of the two people to fight! If Yuan Shu is scared, Yuan Shu will send the main force of Yuan Jun to garrison our army in Runan! ”

"After Yuan Shu sent a large number of troops to Runan, our army needs to use the advantage of cavalry to attack and destroy the Yuan army, so that his soldiers and horses are stationed in the city and cannot come out, if Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian's soldiers and horses are unstoppable, Yuan Shu will definitely send troops to help, and our army only needs to invade and harass the Yuan army, so that he is trapped in the city, and he cannot advance or retreat!"

After hearing this, Liu Wei nodded and looked at the civil officials, and said: "Jinglu's plan is deeply heartfelt, but Chang Yuchun is more than brave in his army, but his wisdom is insufficient, and there is still a lack of a military division, which of you is willing to serve in the regular army?"

A group of civil officials, you look at me, I look at you, and finally Fang Xuanling gave his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to go!"

Liu Wei was overjoyed, Fang Xuanling was Li Shimin's think tank, and with him going to the front line, the war was stable. Liu Wei said with a smile: "This is very good, then Yang Zaixing and Yang Yansi will leave for the front line tomorrow, and Fang Qiao will give advice to the military division!"

"Weichen will receive the order, and the last general will receive the order!" As soon as the three of them bowed, they all went down to the main hall and went to pack up and prepare.

The soldiers and horses of Wancheng have always been on standby, and the next day, Yang Zaixing and others led their troops to the front line to join the Chang Yuchun army.

Chang Yuchun's army was originally stationed on the border of Runan, and then when the scorching heat came, Chang Yuchun moved the army to Nanyang Wuyin County to garrison, Yang Yansi led the army to come, and three days later came to Wuyin to join Chang Yuchun's army.
