In Luoyang, Zhao Shuo was pacing in the courtyard alone, looking helpless. The withdrawal of the www.biquge.info family army is equivalent to giving up the entire Mobei grassland.

"What are you thinking about this fold? The great opportunity to occupy the northern grasslands, he gave up so easily? Zhao Shuo raised his head, looked at the full moon, and muttered to himself. They are all nomads, highly mobile, and fierce in combat, is he afraid that the losses of the Zhijia army will be too heavy? ”

Shaking his head, Zhao Shuo denied the idea.

"What are you doing? Did he agree to just give up the northern steppes? Zhao Shuo smashed his mouth and thought of Wu Yashi.

After thinking of Wu Yashi, Zhao Shuo walked a few more laps, and then shouted. "Someone!"

As soon as Zhao Shuo's voice fell, Fluttershy and Grandpa Feng ran over.

"Lord Wang!" Fluttershy and Grandpa Feng salute at the same time.

"Gonggong Feng, you leave immediately, go to Fuzhou, and call Wu Yashi back for me." Zhao Shuo opened his mouth and said.

"Yes, the old slave will leave." Gonggong Feng saluted, turned around and left in a hurry.

"Lord Wang, what's wrong with you, your face is so bad?" After Grandpa Feng leaves, Fluttershy comes to Zhao Shuo's side and gently supports him.

"It's fine!" Zhao Shuo squeezed out a smile, then tapped Fluttershy and said. "Fluttershy, let me ask you if you told Miss Ying'er about hugging etiquette."

Fluttershy blushes at this question and doesn't answer.

If there is no answer, it is a tacit acquiescence, Zhao Shuo shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Alas, you girl, you have made me miserable."

In the past few days, Zhi Yueying, Fang Yunsheng, and Yan Wu have been looking for Zhao Shuo everywhere, and the purpose of these three girls is very simple, that is, to have a hug with Zhao Shuo.

Zhao Shuo didn't want to stick to this etiquette all the time, and his subordinates couldn't stop the three girls, so they had to dodge everywhere while dealing with official business.

"Lord Wang, Captain Zhang asks to see you." As Fluttershy helps Zhao Shuo towards the house, a soldier runs over and salutes.

Captain Zhang is Zhang Chujiu, and Zhao Shuo once asked him to go to the northern part of Fuzhou to inquire in detail about Zhe Yanye's rescue.

"Quick, let him in." Zhao Shuo raised his hand and said.

There was not much time, Zhang Chujiu walked in, and when he saw Zhao Shuo, he saluted first. "The last general will meet the prince."

"Hurry up, hurry up, it's really hard for you to keep you running around." Zhao Shuo took a few steps and helped Zhang Chujiu up.

"Lord, ...... you" Seeing that Fluttershy had been supporting Zhao Shuo, Zhang Chujiu looked worried. Are you alright? ”

"I'm fine!" Zhao Shuo waved his hand, then turned to Fluttershy. "Fluttershy, you asked someone to prepare some food for Junior Nine, let's talk about something, and then let him eat something before leaving."

Fluttershy knew that Zhao Shuo had something to discuss with Zhang Chujiu, so she nodded and went down to get ready.

"Tell me, I've inquired about some good news." Zhao Shuo asks after Fluttershy leaves.

Zhang Chujiu gave a detailed account of the news he had heard about the rescue of Zhe Yanye, and finally added some of the current situation in the northern grassland.

What made Zhao Shuo relieved was that the news of the rescue of Zhi Yanye was not far from what Wu Yashi said. But the situation of the nomads in the northern steppes greatly surprised Zhao Shuo.

With the withdrawal of the Zhejia army, the nomads of the northern steppes will inevitably fall into war, after all, there is no ruler in such a large territory, and everyone can see this opportunity.

But the tribes there are intricate, according to Zhao Shuo's ideas, even if the Meng Gu Department has a small cannonball and occupies a certain advantage, but without seventeen or eighteen years, it is impossible to dominate and become the overlord of the grassland.

However, Zhang Chujiu's news made him have to change his mind.

According to Zhang Chujiu, after Yelu Dashi fled and the Zhejia army returned to Fuzhou, the Menggu and Kereh tribes took the lead in launching an attack on the surrounding tribes.

The two tribes acted together, relying on the power of small cannonballs, and within a few days, several small tribes around them were brought under their command, and then, under the leadership of the leader of the Menggu tribe, the army went straight to the Bubu department. The Divination Department is all cavalry, relying on sabers and numbers, but the Menggu Department has a sharp weapon like a small cannonball, and once the two sides fought, the Divination Department suffered heavy losses and retreated in embarrassment.

However, the Divination Department is the most powerful tribe in the steppe, with a strong army, and although it is losing and retreating at the moment, it is still holding on. But it can only be persistent, and it is only a matter of time before it is destroyed or surrendered.

Zhao Shuo took a deep breath, the actions of the Menggu Department and the Kereh Department were too fast, if this situation developed, in half a year at most, the Menggu Department and the Kereh Department would be able to pass through the entire northern nomads.

Such a situation is really not what Zhao Shuo wants to see.

"Chu Jiu, I want to discuss something with you, don't you think it's okay." Zhao Shuo pondered for a while and said softly.

"If the prince has something, just tell him." Zhang Chujiu saluted.

"I've been thinking about this, but if it's possible, I'd like to hear your opinion, after all, you're an expert in this area." Zhao Shuo said.

"Lord Wang, please speak!" Zhang Chujiudao.

"I want to build a sophisticated intelligence system with carrier pigeons, so that you don't have to run around all the time. And the information can also be transmitted back as quickly as possible. After a slight pause, Zhao Shuo asked Zhang Chujiu. Is this feasible, you say? ”

Zhang Chujiu pondered for a while before speaking. "It stands to reason that it is feasible, but this requires a large number of carrier pigeons, as well as a large number of investigators who are looking around for intelligence, to do all-pervasive intelligence, I am afraid that in a few years, such a huge system will not be formed."

"How many years?" Zhao Shuo shook his head. "It's been too long, I can only give you a few months, you can buy carrier pigeons at will, soldiers you can choose at will, whatever you need, you can just mention it."

Zhao Shuo now needs to know the situation in various places, so that he can anticipate the enemy first, be in an invincible position, and no longer have the situation that the folded army gave up the northern grassland and made him so passive.

"This~?" Zhang Chujiu frowned, there are too many things that need to be prepared for such a system, and it is almost impossible to get it done in a few months. "Lord Wang, can we implement it gradually, pick up the important arrangements first, and slowly expand it later."

Seeing Zhang Chujiu's embarrassed look, Zhao Shuo thought for a while and said. "Then start with an army, an army and a communication department, and major matters must be reported immediately."

"Yes!" Zhang Chujiu saluted again.

"Lord Wang, the meal is ready." Fluttershy walks over.

Hearing Fluttershy's words, Zhao Shuo smiled and took Zhang Chujiu's hand. "On the ninth day of the first month, this meal should be a celebration banquet for you in advance, don't let me down."
