Hao Ren had not fully recovered from his hangover, and his body was still very tired, but he still held on to his spirits, and discussed with the cabinet members and the members of the Privy Council on the round table in the conference parlor about the change of guard of the army and the southern expedition.

Hao Ren felt that a soldier was not suitable for being stationed in one place for too long, although the soldier and the garrison were two concepts, and he did not participate in local government affairs and belonged to professional soldiers. However, if an army has been stationed in one place for a long time, it is easy to engage in mountains, collude between the military and the government, and form local separatist forces, which are not easy for the imperial court to control.

It was planned that the privy envoy left the envoy Zhang Poyu Department, and the Hankou was changed to defend Luzhou. Zhang Poyu followed Hao Ren for the longest time, and Hao Ren also trusted him the most.

According to the wishes of the Northern Expedition of Tu Danjun, the soldiers originally stationed in Luzhou, the Shan Jun Department of the soldiers stationed in Luzhou was transferred to Bozhou and the Sheng Wenyu Department of Qixian County was controlled to ensure the frontal safety of the army in the south and the north.

Chang Yuchun, the privy deputy envoy who had been guarding and fighting in Jiangnan, took over Fu Youde's garrison in Xuzhou, giving full play to the advantages of his cavalry to ensure that during the southern expedition, he would defend the defense of the eastern part of the country. The Futong Department of the Navy transferred to Xuzhou, as Chang Yuchun's deputy, locked and controlled the lower reaches of the Yellow River, ready to go up the river at any time to threaten the enemy's occupied Bianliang City.

Fusang originally stayed in Zhao Jizu's department (his old partner Shao Rong changed his defense to Fusang), but now he has returned to the Central Plains and transferred his town to defend Xinzhou to protect the safety of the left flank in the north.

Deng Yu was appointed as the marshal of the expedition to the west, and because his peaceful place was not yet stable, he continued to garrison Luzhou in Bashu, passed through the west of Bashu, and organized the right wing army of the southern expedition, and went south to contain the king of Yuanliang in the south.

Yu Tonghai, Chen Zhaoxian, and Hu Boyan marched south from the sea to form the Left Army, pacify the southeast coast, and respond to the southern expedition from the left flank.

Fu Youde, the right envoy of the privy council, was the marshal of the southern expedition, the heavy infantry Wu Liujiu and Yu Tongyuan, the cavalry Geng Zaicheng (the old man Hu Dahai also changed the defense of Fusang), Yu Tonghe, Feishan Barbarian Yang Notice, Yang Hu, Yang Biao, Jiang Ying (good at mountain warfare), the Xinzhou Army Ding Pulang Division, Jiaolu Firearms Battalion Division, Wu Liuqi half of the naval army abandoned ships and walked and other units, assembled in Raozhou to form the main force of the Southern Expedition.

Hao Ren personally took command, in addition to the Chinese army guards accompanying the expedition, Zhang Bixian, Zhang Dingbian, Wansheng and other counts, all from the expedition, among the civil officials, Luzhou Taishou Luo Ben, Yushi Liu Bowen, Hanlin Yuan and other most of the civil officials accompanied the expedition.

The three-way army, with Shen Mao as the baggage officer of the left route army, transported grain and baggage from Nanyang to supply the supply of the Yutong navy, and Tu Danhu was the chief baggage officer of the middle route army to provide grain and grass for the Chinese army.

And transfer all parts of the south of the Yangtze River to be included in the army auxiliaries, extend the soldiers outward, and use them as the backup of the army at any time.

As soon as the plan was put forward by Hao Ren, the adults began repeated research and verification, in order to ensure that it was unimpeded in the actual implementation.

Yao Guangxiao, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was first recruited out by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, but before he did, he crept back and whispered in Hao Ren's ear: "Your Majesty, Fang Guozhen is back!" ”

When Hao Ren heard the name Fang Guozhen, his heart was shocked. When they went to Fusang together, Zhang Shicheng occupied most of Fusang Kyushu Island, and there was a lot of news about it, but this Fang Guozhen has been missing for four years.

"Where is he now?" Hao Ren asked in surprise.

There are personnel to respond to each other, and the reception of officials of the Ministry of Rites is a long situation, not to mention that Yao Guangxiao joined the army as Hao Ren's Eastern Expedition back then, and he was very familiar with Fang Guozhen, and only after his confirmation, did he dare to report to Hao Ren.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has arranged for him to wait in the small living room!" Yao Guangxiao replied.

"Take me to meet him!" Hao Ren was overjoyed in his heart, looked around the round table, looking for Shi Nai'an's shadow, and wanted Shi Nai'an to continue to preside over the discussion, but suddenly remembered that Shi Nai'an was drunk and asked for leave, so he could only hand over the meeting to Liao Yongan again.

……

Hao Ren pretended to be infinitely curious about Fang Guozhen in his heart, I don't know how he disappeared like a mystery in the past four years, Hao Ren even jokingly guessed, could Fang Guozhen let the aliens hijack him?

When Hao Ren flashed out from behind the screen, the scene in front of him surprised Hao Ren.

I saw two people, sitting on the chairs in the living room, grabbing the fruits on the table, feasting, without a little Sven statue, and the appearance of the two people was extremely embarrassed.

The two of them are half-naked on their upper bodies, only animal skins cover their lower bodies, their faces are full of messy beards, covering their original faces, their faces are painted with oil paint, and their heads are stuck with bird feathers!

When Hao Ren confirmed that he was the official Fang family brother, Hao Ren's various speculations about Fang Guozhen's whereabouts finally became clear, and he faintly guessed what happened to Fang Guozhen.

"Fang Dashuai!" Hao Ren wiped the beard on his upper lip, rolled his eyes, and exclaimed in surprise: "Why is Fang Dashuai so desolate? Oh my God, what is going on! ”

In order to take care of Fang Guozhen's stomach, Fang Guozhen arranged to eat porridge and water along the way, but he took advantage of the fact that the soldiers escorted were not paying attention, and secretly drank a lot of Yangtze River water, he just swore in the name of pirates that nothing is sweeter than Yangtze River water, but the fruit in the living room broke Fang Guozhen's oath that he would not be able to spend a day.

Fang Guozhen came in from the front door, he never thought that there was a back door in the living room, he heard the call, the fruit stuffed in his mouth forgot to chew, first looked up and down Hao Ren's satin robe, and then looked down at his unclothed animal skin, the half apple in his hand was lost, the mouth stuffed with fruit, the boss Zhang, "whoop", muddy tears gushed out.

"Ah-Hao Thirteen--you can make the old Fang and me, the pit is miserable-ah-" Fang Guozhen cried and complained, the cry was too miserable, and the entire Luzhou City seemed to be enveloped by this miserable cry.

Fang Guozhen's dignified seven-foot-tall man, a man in troubled times, is a man as hard as steel, unless he encounters great hardships, he can't be so sad.

"Fang Guozhen!" Yao Guangxiao rebuked sharply: "Your Majesty is the Lord of all peoples, don't be rude to Your Majesty!" Now that you have returned, you should ask me for a reward in front of Your Majesty, do you want to die if you are so disrespectful? ”

Yao Guangxiao, who was Hao Ren's welcome to join the army in the past, was once beaten by the Fang brothers, and now although he is dressed luxuriously, Fang Guozhen still looks down on this literati in his bones, Yao Guangxiao's words obviously cannot pose a threat to him.

Fang Guozhen hesitated slightly, and continued to cry: "Have pity on my 30,000 warriors who went to sea, pity me for hundreds of sea-ship, pity my two brothers-ah-Hao Ren, you have made me miserable,-" But he also restrained himself, and did not dare to call Hao Ren his humiliating nickname again, and his sad cry did not diminish in the slightest.

Hao Ren raised his hand to stop Yao Guangxiao, who was about to be furious, and said to Fang Guozhen seriously: "At the beginning, you and I joined forces to conquer Fusang, but you didn't march according to the route of my alliance commander, and you were greedy for merit, just thinking about going north all the way to captivate Kyoto, and finally said goodbye without saying goodbye, causing me and King Cheng to fall into passivity in Fusang, and were almost wiped out by the Fusang people, do you still have the face to cry?" ”

Hao Ren was a little alarmist, but Fang Guozhen's crying stopped abruptly. (To be continued.) )
