"Bang ......"

Wang Hao looked at Luo Gan, who was blushing in front of him and had murderous intent in his eyes, smiled quietly, and said, "What makes Lord Du Shuai so angry?" ”

"What else are you asking me about? Six thousand of my men have been lost in your hands? Aren't you going to give me an explanation? Luo Qian said hatefully.

Luo Qian was very angry and annoyed, this is very good with what Xiao Guojun said, and they don't fight each other. As a result, another 6,000 cavalry were lost in the blink of an eye. The original army of 55,000 was now only more than 43,000 people, how could this not make Luo Qian annoyed? In addition to being annoyed, Luo Qian also had an inexplicable panic, he was worried about whether Zhao Xun wanted to deal with them here. In the battle against the Xiaoguo Army, he lost 6,000 people, but according to the report, the Xiaoguo Army lost less than half of his own.

Of course, because of the equipment, the Yan army no longer had enough arrows and bowstrings, but the strength of the Xiaoguo army also frightened Luo Qian's heart.

Wang Hao smiled and said, "Just for this? ”

"Shouldn't you give me an explanation of this?" Luo Qian said gloomily.

"Lord Dushuai, there has been an agreement between us, we don't care if you kill the officials and the big families we have designated. Even if we kill civilians in battle, we can understand that we can still cooperate. But your men's wanton plundering of the people, raping and adultering women, is beyond the scope of our agreement. Wang Hao said coldly.

"My lord is now in Yanzhou City, and he has recently got married, and the generals are in charge of the affairs here. If Du Shuai's subordinates have overpassed, they will naturally follow suit. Therefore, it is better not to put this responsibility on us. Wang Hao said indifferently.

"Just for a few thousand people? And you have slain thousands of my army? Luo Qian clenched his fists and said hatefully.

Wang Hao said coldly: "For you, they are just ordinary people, but for us, they make our brothers, the same clan!" My lord said, "Whoever kills my Han people will be killed!" If the commander obeys the agreement, we will naturally follow it. If Du Shuai's subordinates have overstepped, then we are not to blame. ”

Luo Qian gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell you about our cooperation?" ”

Wang Hao said with a smile: "Do you think the people believe it? Don't forget, we have just killed your army of 6,000, rescued thousands of people, and recovered their possessions. Besides, the official position of my family is built with the heads of the three clans, do you think anyone will believe it? ”

Luo Qian was speechless, yes, his Luo Gan's words made Yan Guo feel that they were framing.

Even in order to get rid of this crime, Zhao Xun could completely leave all the Yan Yan army behind. Luo Qian felt that he seemed to be trapped by Zhao Xun, and became the knife in Zhao Xun's hand, clearing hidden dangers for him and taking charge of the place.

In this regard, Luo Gan had no choice but to emphasize military discipline again, not to kill the Han people indiscriminately, of course, if you can block the tens of thousands of Xiaoguo troops behind you, then you can kill and rob.

After the wedding, he accompanied the two ladies in the house every day, and now the war is going on step by step, and it is no big problem to hand it over to the army. For Zhao Xun, in addition to taking over the state capital taken from the Yan Army, another goal of this operation is to train troops, so that the newly formed army can be completely integrated, and the army will grow the fastest in the war.

Zhao Xun, who suddenly relaxed, was a little bored, even a little empty, and a little unaccustomed. Fortunately, the former Chu Gaozu had already figured out movable type printing, and books were also printed. The only thing that made Zhao Xun scold secretly was that the layout of this book was still vertical, which made Zhao Xun extremely unhappy.

Yawning lazily in the study, the current Zhao Xun reads books from time to time to pass the time, and the governance of the Weizhou Mansion and the Pingzhou Mansion that he took over is the same as the three mansions under the rule of Xiaoguo Jun, there are already ready-made routines, just follow it.

He only set a strategy on the overall layout, and the specific measures and decrees were handed over to the officials of the administrative secretary under him, and he only needed to check the government affairs and give instructions on some things that were difficult for the officials to decide.

Zhao Xun was a little self-deprecating, whether he really couldn't be idle. This is not without benefits, the martial arts have improved, and his two wives have become pregnant.

In addition to accompanying his wife, Zhao Xun came to the valley horse farm in the north of the city from time to time, where in addition to tens of thousands of horses, there are 4,000 orphans in its adjacent places. Zhao Xun often monitors their progress and teaches them things himself. Zhao Xun believes that these people may not be the talents of the governing side or the generals of the leading party in the future. However, these people will become their most loyal team, because this is almost the training carried out under the brainwashing strategy.

The army finally retreated, retreating to the northeast of Pingzhou Mansion, adjacent to Haizhou Mansion, and the people of Pingzhou Mansion were relieved. As for the reaction of the Haizhou Mansion, neither the Yan Army nor the Xiaoguo Army would pay attention. Compared with the top and bottom of Haizhou Mansion, Zhao Xun paid more attention to the naval army stationed in Haizhou Mansion.

Well, to tell the truth, Zhao Xun has taken a fancy to these 20,000 sailors, which is also scarce in the Xiaoguo army, with the assistance of the sailors, not to mention that it is extremely convenient to come from the south to the north, it is also very beneficial to fight against the three divisions of the Turpentine. In particular, the Sumo Jin, who occupied the three eastern provinces of Youzhou a few years ago, their southern part will be attacked by the Xiaoguo army.

It's October, and the north is already facing early winter, and the weather is gradually getting colder. Except for Pingzhou City and the two county towns at the northeast end, the rest of Pingzhou Mansion fell into the hands of the Xiaoguo Army, which will send officials to settle in and govern the place.

In the cold winter season, outside the Chengdu General's Mansion.

Standing on the steps of the side courtyard of the General's Mansion, looking at the nearly 100 young people under the stairs, Zhao Xun couldn't help but smile with relief.

In the side courtyard, most of the young people standing in line have not yet performed the crown salute, and some have just reached the crown ceremony. Most of them were young men under twenty, and the average age was probably only eighteen or nineteen years old, and they looked up at Zhao Xun, who was the same age as them, with a trace of excitement and eagerness on their firm and stern faces.

These are all selected by Zhao Xun from those poor scholars, who have both enthusiasm and the heart of the people, plus they have not been misled by the society, Zhao Xun asked Yu Jing and the officials of the original Sanfu Assassin Mansion to join forces for some training, plus some observation of dealing with local affairs, so that they finally grew up and became the first batch of civil officials trained by themselves under Zhao Xun, grassroots civil officials.

"You are young but you have become officials, some people are happy, and many people are nervous, but I hope you will cheer up, believe in yourself, and be a hero. Twelve-year-old Ganluo can worship the prime minister, let alone us? ”

"Tianxingjian, a gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement. Most of you come from poor backgrounds, all of you are ordinary family readers, and you all hope that you can make a difference. Now, you are about to take up the posts of the counties of Pingzhou Prefecture and become local parent officials. But I hope you don't forget where you came from, and that you should put the people first in everything. ”

Looking at these scholars who were the same size as himself, Zhao Xun, who was standing with his hands in his hands, said solemnly again: "After you take office, think twice before you act, decide that you can't do whatever you want in political affairs, you should brainstorm, listen to the advice of the contrary, and the matters related to punishment must be convincing to the people." ”

"Reward and punishment should be clear, grace and power should be at the same time, the law is the blade to maintain order, and forgiveness is the source of the people's trust. If someone occupies a position and does not seek his own government, I will not tolerate and nurture adultery, but if anyone breeds arrogance and greed, I hope to introspect himself every day and prevent it from getting worse. The counties of Pingzhou Prefecture have just been devastated by the Yan Army, so after you take office, you will immediately pacify the people, and at the same time assist the incoming county commanders and government officials to implement the new policy. ”

Those young people who looked up to Zhao Xun were full of awe, and a few words had already made them deeply feel Zhao Xun's high hopes and trust, and their hearts were surging, and they couldn't help themselves with excitement. From an ordinary scholar, he became an official in half a year, although he is not a big official, but he can become an official under the rule of Xiaoguo Army, I don't know how many people envy him.

At the same time, these people also know the gap between what the reader reads and what he actually does.

Subsequently, these nearly 100 people, escorted by the soldiers, entered the counties of Pingzhou Prefecture, and they will assist the county commander in handling all matters in each county, that is, they are all adjutant officers of the county order. Zhao Xun did this to let these young people grow up quickly.

Subsequently, Zhao Xun dealt with some official affairs left over by the Secretary of Administration, and only in the afternoon did he complete the political affairs that had accumulated in the past few days and needed Zhao Xun's instructions. After relaxing his body, he came to the backyard to visit Xu Qinlian.

Now Xu Qinlian, there is an obvious bulge in the lower abdomen. Since she became pregnant, she has become a national treasure of the General's Mansion. Zhao Xun believes that even now she is not as high as her status in the eyes of her mother.

When Zhao Xun came back, she was leaning on the head of the bed with a needle and thread to sew some baby clothes, and Li Ruolan was talking slowly on the side. Not far away, there were still Su Ziyan and Yang Wei'er, and even Su Ran, who had not been seen for many days, also appeared here. Li Ruolan was not long pregnant, and she couldn't see anything abnormal at random, but obviously, at this moment, he also seemed very happy, and touched his abdomen with his hand from time to time.

"It's so early, what can you figure out?" Zhao Xun said with a smile.

After that, she kissed Li Ruolan on the forehead, and Zhao Xun's actions made Li Ruolan blush with shame, she hadn't adapted to Zhao Xun being close to herself in front of outsiders.

"Wow...... There are still people here! Yang Weier shouted coquettishly.

Zhao Xun shook his head helplessly, he was speechless for this little girl. Lying in his house all day long, he keeps eating sweets, and one person is the share of several others.

"Eat too many sweets and get fat! Little girl piece. Seeing that Yang Weier was eating sweet pastries again, Zhao Xun said casually.

"Really? It's not like you're reluctant to give up these pastries, right? You're too stingy, I'll ......," the little girl said with her mouth shut.

"Okay, I'm afraid of you, whatever you want, you can eat as you want, and when the time comes, you will become a big fat man, don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Madame, these days, you make clothes every day, and you don't know how much you have made. Is this kid wearing it? Don't be busy, and don't be afraid that your eyes won't be able to stand it. Also, I'm a little jealous! ”

Zhao Xun snatched the needle and thread from Xu Qinlian's hand, put it aside, turned around and kissed her lightly on the head, and then gently stroked her abdomen with his hand, feeling the breath of his children.

Listening to Zhao Xun's words, Xu Qinlian's face turned slightly red, and her soft hand was on the back of Zhao Xun's hand, her eyes showed a gentle look, and she didn't take the few people around her to heart at all. muttered: "Husband, how can you say that, and you are still jealous of your own children......"

Su Ziyan looked at Xu Qinlian and Zhao Xun fixedly, with a look of envy in her eyes, envious of Zhao Xun's love and respect for the two.

"Husband, if the concubine gives birth to a daughter, will you be unhappy?" Suddenly, Xu Qinlian raised her head and asked at Zhao Xunyou.

Zhao Xun smiled and said softly, "How can you be unhappy?" It's better for a daughter, so as not to be mischievous everywhere and worry. Besides, a daughter can care more about people than a son...... Kindness...... There was a woman who was as beautiful and gentle as her mother. ”

In this era when men are inferior to women and children are precious, Zhao Xun's words are enough to make Xu Qinlian and Li Ruolan rush to a touch of happiness in their hearts.

Su Ran on the side sighed secretly, I don't know what I thought, I looked sideways at Su Ziyan who was not far away, and saw that he also had a gloomy face, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

For such an attitude of the Xiaoguo army, Liaodongguo was very angry, and he had the intention of going south to retaliate. However, there are two ways to enter the Xiaoguo Army, one is on the territory of the Beihai Department, and the other is in Haizhou Mansion. More importantly, the cold winter is coming, and it is really not a time for conquest.

Liaodongguo originally didn't plan to give Xiaoguo Army a compensation of one million taels of gold, this was to make Xiaoguo Army bow his head and make it mean. Anyway, Liaodong is also a newly built kingdom, and your Xiaoguo army is just a general of a country.

It's a pity that their calculation was wrong, and the Xiaoguo army had an extremely tough attitude, speaking directly with weapons, and unceremoniously chased the wolf bèi of the Weizhou Mansion and fled. Although this army is not the Liaodong army of Liaodong Kingdom, it is also the people of Liaodong Kingdom.

And Xiaoguojun's move is also a naked slap in the face, Liaodong is very angry, but there is nothing to be done, the country is newly built, and there are too many affairs to be busy. Winter is coming, heavy snow is coming, and it is not a good time for a big war. sent more than 10,000 troops to prepare to kill from Haizhou Mansion to meet the Jin Ya army that fled north, but was stopped by the soldiers of the Haizhou Mansion United Naval Division Battalion, so that the Liaodong Army could not go south. The history of the assassination of Haizhou Mansion made the counties clear the walls, so that the Yan army that fled north to the south of Haizhou Mansion could not get anything.

Even Zhao Xun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard about Haizhou Mansion's actions, there were still two brushes in the history of Haizhou Mansion. Subsequently, the governor of Shunzhou Prefecture asked for help from the Xiaoguo Army, and at the same time reported to the Governor of Youzhou to expand the army's self-protection.

According to the regulations, the governor has the right to expand the army before the battle, but he must report to the governors of the states within three days, otherwise, he will be punished for treason. Zhao Xun ignored Haizhou Mansion's request for help, and only excused himself from the fact that the army was chasing the Yan army in Pingzhou Mansion, and there were no rescue soldiers in his hands.

As for whether the officials of Haizhou Mansion believe it or not, who cares? Anyway, Zhao Xun doesn't care. In addition, the walls are clear, and Zhao Xun is not worried about the problems of the people. Among them, there are many people who abandoned their homes and fled into the Yingzhou capital.
