Out of concern about the changing situation, Luan Yi only lay in bed for two days, and had to drag his injured body to continue to take care of his official duties.

Cao Cao's escape was like a heavy blow to him, turning the plan he had spent a long time making into a mess, and the subsequent defection of Xun Yu, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu to Chen Liu made it even worse, which caught him off guard. I had to reinvent the strategic plan.

The original plan of establishing two armies in one year obviously could not cope with the coming fierce battle, and at least two more armies would be needed to hold the situation.

To this end, Luan Yite mentioned Huang Zhong as a marksman knight, and recruited 20,000 horses to build a new army, the Kamikaze Army, from now on. promoted Zhang Fei to be a Cancer Knight, and also expanded the Shenpan Camp to a 20,000-strong Shenpan army. The Templar battalion was upgraded to a knightly brigade, doubling the number of cavalry to 5,000.

The Templar Order was also promoted to brigade status, and Dian Wei was temporarily promoted to brigade commander and Knights of the Bull.

As soon as things are arranged, the problem of troop sources will follow. The population of Jinan is only more than 140,000, and now 50,000 or 60,000 people have moved from Chang'an, but the total is only 200,000. Among them, according to the proportion of men, if more than half of the 100,000 men are in the army, who will cultivate and produce?

In order to solve this problem, Luan Yi had to mobilize a large number of manpower from Qingyan Erzhou to enrich the army construction, while the people of Jinan tried to move as little as possible to maintain the efficient production state that Jinan had cultivated for many years.

However, Huang Zhong insisted that it would be difficult to assemble a strong army in a short period of time by mobilizing the sick from afar.

In response to this situation, Luan Yi immediately made a decision and ordered all armies to enter the mountains to suppress bandits.

In the deep mountains and old forests of Yanzhou and Qingzhou, there are a large number of bandits and bandits, who rob houses and houses on weekdays, and live a life of licking blood from the knife edge, which has brought a lot of hidden dangers to local public security.

Luan Yi ordered the army to exterminate it, on the one hand, it could stabilize the place; On the other hand, most of the bandits and bandits are fierce people who have had experience in killing, and they are included in the army, without the need for baptism of war, and they are soldiers who know how to fight as soon as they enter the battlefield. The only downside is that the guys lack discipline. Luan Yi was not worried about this, he fully believed that under the training of Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei, and the teaching of the clergy of the Holy Mother Sect, the bandits and bandits would soon change.

Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei received the order and took their own soldiers and horses to various places to suppress bandits.

Not to mention, the harvest is really not small, in just one month, or strong attack and surrender, or Zhao'an pacification, actually conquered more than 100 cottages, large and small. There are nearly 4 or 5 hundred bandits in the large stockade, and there are nearly 100 people in the small ones, and more than 4,000 bandits have been recruited, which can be said to have gained a lot. As a result, in the following period, the momentum of suppressing bandits was further strengthened, and not to mention how many people were recruited, at least local law and order were greatly improved. The bandits in the two prefectures of Qingyan have been pacified, and the people in the counties have become more and more peaceful.

……

It's late at night after finishing official business. Luan Yi walked out of the study and stretched out to go home.

As I passed by the chapel, I inadvertently saw a dark shadow in the corner. He was startled, quietly pulled out the long sword at his waist, and leaned towards the corner. Five steps away from the corner, he saw that the black shadow was an acquaintance, put his sword into the sheath, and pasted it.

Look in the direction that the "black shadow" is looking at. It can be seen that in the chapel, a woman wearing a sacred robe and a square scarf is sitting in the first row of chairs, with her hands crossed in front of her chest, bowing her head and praying in front of the statue of the Virgin. Looking at the figure, who is it not Xiaocui!

"Still like Emerald so much?" Luan Yi asked.

The "black shadow" turned his head, revealing the resolute face that belonged to Wang Yue. He glanced at Luan Yi and said bitterly: "How can you not like it!" ”

"If you like it, go for it! What's the use of just looking stupid? ”

"I can't!" Wang Yue lowered his head.

"Why?"

"Why?" Wang Yue snorted coldly, "Because she is your house-filling maid, it also means that she is your woman!" Moreover...... The person she liked from beginning to end was you! ”

Luan Yi said abruptly: "But I don't like her!" It's true. I'd love her, but ...... It really can't be done. ”

"Why?" Wang Yue was angry and grabbed Luan Yi's collar and questioned.

"Why?" This time, Luan Yi sneered. He waved away Wang Yue's hand on his collar and said angrily, "She almost killed my most beloved woman." If it weren't for the coincidence, Zhen Mi would have let her kill it a long time ago! It's good that I don't hate her. I still remember that I spared her life in the old love, and I have done my best to be benevolent and righteous. Don't you think it's ridiculous to expect me to love her in turn? ”

Wang Yue said sharply: "But two years ago, you clearly said that as long as she devotes herself to studying the "Holy Mother Sutra" in the church and reforms herself under the guidance of God, you will accept her again and marry her!" Now you have to regret it, aren't you lying to her! Is this the work of a gentleman? ”

Luan Yi said: "I told her like that because she didn't have any hope of living, it was a white lie!" ”

"But she took it seriously!" Wang Yue's eyes were red, and her eyes were moistened with tears, "Do you know how she has lived for more than two years?" What a girl who loved beauty, wearing a plain robe and a headscarf in the church every day. I got up early every morning, cleaned the church from the inside out, prayed, served food, and then washed all the dirty and old robes in the church, and in the winter, my hands were frozen and cracked...... I continue to wash it. It's distressing to watch. I couldn't help but go up and try to help her, but she refused to live or die, saying that she had committed a sin that she had to pay for herself, so ...... You can forgive her. This was followed by lunch and prayer...... There is no time to have a day to spare. What a lively girl, just because of your words, she can't say half a sentence all day long, muddy, like a walking corpse. It's all because of you, it's all because of the promise you gave, and now it's good, two years have passed, and you have broken your promise. Are you still an individual? ”

Luan Yi's heart also twitched, and she hardened her heart and said: "These sins were all caused by herself, and I didn't impose them on her." What does it have to do with me? Besides, she almost took the life of a young girl! If I hadn't opened the net, she would be dead by now. The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, and she deserves to bear the punishment for the sins she has committed! ”

Wang Yue was anxious, "But if you tell her that you won't like her at all, she will definitely be worse off than dead!" ”

"Then it's none of my business!"

"How dare you say that?" Wang Yue was furious.

"I'm telling the truth. Wang Yue, let me tell you, don't blow your beard and stare at me. Now it's not me who can really save Xiaocui, but you! ”

"Me?" Wang Yue was stunned, "How could it be me?" ”

"Wang Yue, there is a saying that 'a twisted melon is not sweet'. It's absolutely impossible for me to fall in love with Xiao Cui, so I struggled with it for two years, but reality proved that I really couldn't do it. I've thought about it, the only person in this world who can comfort Cui's soul is you. Only you have the possibility to make her forget about me, throw herself into a new warm embrace, and have a happy second half of her life. So, if you really like Xiaocui and want to be good for her, let go of the courage to pursue her. Let her forget me, don't always live with expectations, regrets and guilt, see the light in her heart, feel the spiritual strength, and find the future in her life that is truly worth clinging to. Let her truly know that you are the most worthy person to have and embrace in her life! ”

"Me?" Wang Yue was stunned.

Luan Yi nodded, "Only you can save him from the roots, understand?" ”

"I ...... I'm afraid not. Xiao Cui loves you, from childhood to adulthood ......"

Luan Yi stopped Wang Yue and said: "Love in this world is never one-on-one, and no one is born to love only one person for life." Xiaocui can fall in love with me, and she can also fall in love with Brother Wang. Brother Wang is a hero in the world, can take people's lives in the courtyard of the deep mansion like a bag, can't he capture the heart of a young girl? I believe that Brother Wang will be able to do it, because ...... In Brother Tai's heart, it is more important for Xiaocui to have a happy second half of her life than anything else. With a firm belief, are you still worried about the big thing? ”

"......"

Luan Yi waved his hand again, "Brother Wang, listen to me first." When you can bring Xiao Cui to see me, I will allow Xiao Cui to leave the church and give her her freedom. Do you understand? ”

"This ......," Wang Yue nodded hesitantly.

"That's good! I wish you to bring Xiaocui to see me soon! I still have something to do, so I'll go first. Ignoring Wang Yue's eager gaze, Luan Yi waved his sleeves and stepped out of the church door.

He knew that Wang Yue actually wanted to pursue Xiaocui for a long time, and the reason why he never took substantive action was because of Xiaocui's identity. She is Luan Yi's house-filling maid, and from the moment she enters the door of Luan's house, she is destined to become Luan Yi's concubine one day in the future. And Wang Yue and Luan Yi are close friends in private, and they are still officials under Luan Yi on the surface, and they have a clear relationship between superiors and subordinates. So, out of the fact that a friend's wife should not be bullied, or out of the fact that he could not be unreasonable to Shangguan's wife and concubine, he has not dared to confess to Xiaocui since the Luoyang case.

On the other hand, Wang Yue is a person who can kill people, but he lacks enough self-confidence in the love of men and women, and he has been hesitant to show his thoughts or not.

This is good, with Luan Yi's statement and encouragement, Wang Yue's self-confidence suddenly swelled. Take a look at Luan Yi's back, and then look at Xiaocui in the chapel. He looked down and thought for a while, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, pulled a bunch of flowers from the flowers, and strode into the chapel with his head held high.

"Little Cui! I...... Love, I've come to see you! Wang Yue said with a weak heart.

Xiao Cui's cold face immediately bloomed with a beautiful smile, "Brother Yue, you're here!" Why haven't you come to see the slave house for a long time, have you been busy lately? ”

"Yes! The leader has started to build a new army, and I have to be the leader! ”

Xiao Cui pouted and complained, "Hey! Our sect leader is really, it's just that he's a workaholic himself. I have to pull Brother Yue to suffer together! ”

Wang Yue defended Luan Yi and said: "The sect leader is also for the good of the people in the world, don't worry about being tired!" ”

"Hey! It must be very worry-free for the sect leader to get Brother Yue's help! Xiao Cui glanced at the things in Wang Yue's hand, "Ah! Brother Yue brought flowers? Is it for the slaves? ”

Wang Yue nodded shyly.

"It smells so good! Is it good to help the slave stick it on the head? ”

"Uh...... Good! ”
