Chapter 198: Entering Jicheng

"This is Jicheng!" Wei Shuo stood under the Jicheng City, looking at the majestic ancient city wall with a lot of emotion.

Jicheng, according to the spine of the world, leaning on the mountain and taking risks, Sichuan Ze circulation, controlling Shuo desert in the north, pressing Yuting in the south, known as "huge momentum and strong form", is one of the few places in the world, and can be called the place where the tiger stands on the dragon.

Since Wei Shuo had taken Jicheng, he was in full swing to arrange the matter of entering Jicheng, preparing to use this as a foundation to bring Youzhou's thousands of miles of fertile fields under control. However, the situation that Weishuo is facing now is not simple, in Jicheng, the forces of the local family, Wang Jun's old department, Xianbei Hu clan and other parties are intertwined and gathered, and the situation is very complicated.

And Liaodong was limited by its own strength, and it was only by chance that he became the master of Jicheng. Except for those like Liu Han who sincerely want to join Wei Shuo, whether it is Wang Jun's old ministry or the local wealthy family, there are many dissidents. Therefore, it is not advisable to make hasty progress in controlling Youzhou, but should be done cautiously.

"Greetings to the lord!"

Jicheng Wenwu, led by Liu Yao and Liu Han, stood respectfully in front of Wei Shuo. Liu Han saw Wei Shuo for the first time, and was naturally surprised by Wei Shuo's too young face.

"Zhengchang, please get up quickly!" Wei Shuo stepped forward and smiled and grabbed Liu Yao's arm, and looked at Liu Han next to him again: "Presumably this is Liu Shangshu?" ”

"Meet the lord, it is Liu Han below, and I dare not be called a scholar in front of the lord!"

"Hahaha, Mr. Wuzi is too modest, the Liu family of Yanguo is a first-class family in this county, and Mr. Wuzi is the Junyan of the Liu family, how can a small Shangshu be the limit of Mr.? It's no problem for him to pay homage to the prime minister every day! ”

"Thank you for your praise!"

Contrary to the expectations of many Jicheng civil and military forces at the scene, Liu Han actually lowered his posture in front of Wei Shuo. In the face of Shi Le's threat, Liu Han did not show surrender, but he didn't expect that as soon as he saw Wei Shuo, he 'couldn't wait' and said that he wanted to lean over. This made some families with other plans feel a little uncomfortable.

Wei Shuo was also surprised by Liu Han's low profile, but he didn't think much about it, and took the opportunity to accept the kindness handed over by Liu Han. He knew that as Liaodong gradually came to the forefront, such a scene would happen again in the future.

It was not surprising that Liu Han threw himself into Wei Shuo, and Wang Jun was destroyed. Youzhou has unexpectedly become a borderless land, and the local forces naturally have to choose a new agent of interest. Wei Shuo was not only a legitimate official of the Jin family, but also famous in Liaodong as Corporal Lixian, so he naturally became the best candidate.

Accompanied by Liu Han, Liu Yao, Lu Chang, Han Shou and others, Wei Shuo successfully entered Jicheng. Due to the catastrophe just experienced, the streets in Jicheng are sparsely populated, and there are even traces of fire everywhere. Looking at the large pool of black blood under his feet, Wei Shuo couldn't help but feel sympathy for the plight of the people of Jicheng.

Wang Jun's mansion had been burned down by Shile, and Liu Han, Liu Yao and others had to place Wei Shuo in a large mansion in the city. The rest of the people were dismissed. Wei Shuo only left Liu Han, Liu Yao, Lu Chang, and Han Shou to discuss important matters. The first thing to talk about is the reorganization of the Youzhou Army, and the reorganization of the army is a matter of great importance, so Wei Shuo must not take it seriously.

"Chief, let's talk about the reorganization of the Youzhou Army first?"

Hearing this, Liu Yao's face showed a hint of embarrassment, and he stood up and said a little hesitantly: "Qi Lord, your subordinates have the trust of the lord and failed to complete the task of army reorganization, please punish the lord!" ”

"Oh? Why is that? ”

Wei Shuo's tone was full of incomprehension. In his opinion, after the reorganization of the Liaodong Zhuhu tribe. The Liaodong Army should be familiar with such a thing as reorganization, why did Liu Yao kick the iron plate in Youzhou?

"My lord, the Youzhou soldiers under Wang Jun's command are mainly local Jin and Hu people, and most of its officers at all levels are from the local big clans or the leaders and leaders of the Hu tribes. Since Shi Le's evacuation, some of the clans and the leaders of the Hu tribe suddenly felt that they were the masters of Youzhou. I am unwilling to let my Liaodong Army win Youzhou alone. ”

"At the instigation of the big families, the reorganization plan, which was going very smoothly, has now completely reached a deadlock, and many generals and soldiers have refused to agree to the good reorganization conditions, and some generals even instigated the soldiers to make trouble. Recent. His subordinates have dealt with no less than five conflicts that broke out in the army. ”

"Looks like someone can't take it anymore."

Wei Shuo's eyes flashed, Pei Wei had warned him before he came: It is easy to seize Youzhou, but it is difficult to occupy Youzhou!

Although Youzhou is a remote frontier place in the eyes of the people of the Central Plains, in the hearts of the people of Liaodong, Youzhou is already a prosperous place. Not only is culture and education prosperous, but also has a large population and a developed economy.

In Youzhou, there are not only top families such as Fan Yang Lu's family, Zu's family, Yanguo Liu's family, and Shanggu Kou's family, but also a large number of small and medium-sized families. They have lived in the land of Youzhou since the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, hundreds of years ago, and their power is intertwined and deep-rooted.

Now the Liu clan of Yan Guo has taken the initiative to come over, and the Fan Yang Zu clan has long followed Zu Ti to move south, and its momentum has declined. As long as Wei Shuo can settle the Fan Yang Lu clan and the Shanggu Kou clan in a short period of time, he will be able to control most of Youzhou in the shortest possible time.

"Although we have encountered some troubles, our next focus is still on the reorganization of the army, and if we do not complete the reorganization of the army, we will not be able to control the situation in the entire Youzhou. Shocho, I will ask Lord Lu to assist you next. You must complete the reorganization of the Youzhou Army in a short period of time, first eliminate the old and weak, and then select its elite, and break up and reorganize the brave men among them. ”

"In the process of reorganization, we must follow the military system of our Liaodong Army, if any Youzhou general cannot abide by my Liaodong military system, you can punish him with military law! Remember, our Liaodong Army does not need weak soldiers, and all unqualified soldiers must unconditionally choose to be disarmed and returned to the peasants! ”

"In addition, pass on my general's order: If there are any more demagogues in the army, there will be no forgiveness!"

"No!"

With Wei Shuo's murderous announcement of the general order, Liu Yao's heart sank, knowing that he had been allowed to kill the soldiers. In the past, in the Liaodong Army, there was very little military discipline to kill soldiers, but today, in order to reorganize the Youzhou Army, Wei Shuo did not hesitate to sacrifice the big killing weapon of beheading again, which shows that Wei Shuo is actually extremely angry in his heart.

"Alas, it seems that some people still don't know the power of my Liaodong Army!"

"My lord, when my Liaodong Army first arrived in the land of Youyan, its prestige is not obvious, and it is easy to be underestimated by stupid people. Just let General Liu find an opportunity to establish his majesty, and the Yandi Hao clan will be in court. Besides, all those who are as knowledgeable as Lord Liu will not be under the command of the lord early? ”

Lu Chang's words not only comforted Wei Shuo's anxious heart, but also praised Liu Han by the way. Sure enough, a smile immediately appeared on Liu Han's face. Seeing this, Wei Shuo secretly nodded at Lu Chang, indicating that he had done a good job.

Maybe Lu Chang's words just now encouraged Liu Han, or maybe he wanted to behave in front of the new lord. As soon as Lu Chang sat down, Liu Han stood up, and he arched his hand at Wei Shuo and said: "My lord, Youzhou is an important town on the frontier, and it has always been a place for strong troops. If General Liu and Master Lu can successfully incorporate the Youzhou Army, it will definitely greatly enhance the strength of our army. ”

"In the future, whether it is Shile's comeback, or the Xianbei of Liaoxi, it is impossible to shake the lord's dominance in the land of Youyan."

"Hahaha, I have Mr. Wuzi to help, why worry about Youyan?"

"The lord has a good reputation!"

Liu Han took the initiative to take refuge, which did save Wei Shuo too much trouble. At least in the territory of Yan Kingdom, the Liu family is a first-class existence, and they all lean towards Wei Shuo, not to mention other small families. This is also the main reason why Wei Shuo can successfully control Jicheng and Yan Kingdom, but controlling Yan Kingdom does not mean that Wei Shuo can control the entire Youzhou.

Now the entire Youzhou has seven counties, except for the Yan State temporarily under the control of Wei Shuo, the two counties of Beiping and Liaoxi were occupied by the Duan clan, and the Dai County belonged to the sphere of influence of the Tuoba tribe; The two counties of Shanggu and Quang Ninh are controlled by local Haoqiang and Karasuma people; As for Fan Yangguo, it was occupied by Sun Wei, a subordinate of the original Wang Jun.

After some analysis, Wei Shuo put the two counties of Fanyang and Shanggu as the primary targets of conquest. These two counties are similar to the Yan Kingdom, both of which are occupied by Han forces, and they are easy to be completely digested and absorbed by Wei Shuo and smoothly improve their own strength.
