Liu Zhaoyu glanced at Kou Zichan suspiciously, saw that there was no mocking look on his face, and said, "Zichan really doesn't know why I came to Jiangning?" ”

Kou Zichan said: "I'm just a guest in Jiangning, you don't need to tell me about everything in Jiangning, Zhaoyu doesn't want to say, Zichan doesn't ask." Suddenly remembered the incident of the Green Guard's advance into Baishi, and asked, "But for the sake of Baishi?" ”

Liu Zhaoyu sighed and said: "Last year, Dongjiangjin, Jiangning and my Wanling three families made a covenant to attack Baishi to divide their land, but Xu Bodang withdrew from Baishi, and Jiangning dominated most of Baishi alone. ”

If Xu Ruyu was willing to see Liu Zhaoyu, Liu Zhaoyu would not stand here.

Kou Zichan squinted his eyes, looked at the sun in the sky, and said: "At this time, the head is poisonous, Zhaoyu followed me to find a restaurant, and said goodbye, I think we haven't seen each other for twelve years." ”

Liu Zhaoyu shook his head and said, "It's not that Zhaoyu doesn't want to, but I can't see Qingfeng, and I can't go back to Wanling without a face." ”

Kou Zichan said: "Zichan remembers a poem written by Zhao Yu back then, which has the sentence 'Who is willing to succeed, sweep the right sleep together', Zixing also appreciated the last sentence very much before his death, Chen Pre provoked a war in Pengcheng, isn't it just the right poem?" ”

Liu Zhaoyu said: "The battle of Pengcheng was forced by the situation. Qingzhou in Pengcheng, Pi County around the garrison of heavy troops, at the end of last year, Yi Shide gathered the troops of the two places to attack Suining, besieged it, Zhang Jidao commanded troops to attack Pi County Chengchi, to relieve the siege of Suining, but Yi Shide besieged the city and did not retreat, Zhang Jidao had to forcibly take Pi County, after trapping Pi County, waved his army to fight a decisive battle with Yi Shi de in Suining, Yi Shi De commanded the army and fled to Pengcheng in a hurry. Xiapi is deep in the northern part of Qingzhou, and there is no basis for the left and right, but to capture Pengcheng, each other is the horn, and the child will gather to attack Pengcheng? ”

Kou Zichan said: "Pi County is just a new small town, and there are big cities like Pengcheng and Shuyi on the left and right. If Zhang Jidao is just to understand the siege of Suining, can the strategy of encircling Wei and saving Zhao be used in Pi County? ”

The city wall of Pixian County is just a rammed earth wall two zhang high, three miles around, attacking Pixian County but not attacking Pengcheng, Pixian County can not stay for a long time, otherwise there is the danger of hanging alone in the enemy's territory. Yi Shide is naturally not afraid that Pixian County will fall into the hands of Zhang Jidao, as long as he captures Suining, he can trap the troops under Zhang Jidao's command into the encirclement of Pengcheng, Muyi, and Suining. The gist of the plan to save Zhao from Wei is to attack the enemy and save him, Zhang Jidao is well versed in the way of using troops, but he commands troops to attack an insignificant city, and his heart is clearly revealed.

It can be said that the bystanders are clear, but the people in Wanling seem to be a different matter, Kou Zichan couldn't bear to see Liu Zhaoyu like this, so he picked out the joints, and continued: "When Suining was captured, it has broken into Qingzhou a lot, and then Pi County is taken in the middle of the northern border of Qingzhou, if there is no ambition to swallow the northern border of Qingzhou in one fell swoop, how can Zhang Jidao take Suining first and then attack Pi County?" Zhao Yu also knows the soldiers, if it weren't for the Hulan Iron Cavalry wreaking havoc in Anyang, Yihan Wenyan would be able to allow Zhang Jidao to live in the small town of Pi County for a long time? If Chen Yu is selfless, how can he condone Zhang Jidao like this? I don't expect Chen Yu and Zhang Jidao to reach the alien race together to turn the tide, but they never expected that the two of them would elbow the Qingzhou soldiers in Pengcheng, which caused the deterioration of Youji. ”

Liu Zhaoyu was stunned, unwilling to believe what Kou Zichan said, but he couldn't refute it, and suddenly understood why Xu Ruyu avoided it, but he couldn't bear to say it to himself. Liu Zhaoyu didn't know whether to believe what Kou Zichan said, and stood there in despair.

Kou Zichan pulled him to the car, covered the sun, and drove west to find a restaurant.

When he was about to leave Xuanwu Street, he saw Xu Boying and Fan Wenlong rushing to the direction of Qingfeng Mansion in the same car, Liu Zhaoyu came back to his senses at this time, turned his head to look at the staggered carriage, but heard Xiao Yuan sitting on the left side of the car and said: "How can Xu Boying and Fan Wenlong take the same car?" ”

Liu Zhaoyu asked: "There is another person who is Fan Wenlong, a famous general in Yuedi?" ”

Last night, Xu Ruyu announced in public that Fan Wenlong would lead Qingfengwei, and at this time, Fan Wenlong and Xu Boying walked together, which was naturally related to the recruitment of Qingfengwei. Xu Boying also led the Troops and Horses Garrison Division, not only managing military households and military cantonments in various places, but also managing the formation, expansion, reduction and merger of various armies and other related affairs.

Kou Zichan said: "Jiangning will add two armies of Qingfengwei and Qingfengcai, and Fan Wenlong will lead Qingfengwei and can gallop in front of the mansion, but he just arrived in Jiangning yesterday, and it is estimated that there is no carriage in the mansion yet, so he went to the mansion with Xu Boying." ”

Fan Wenlong belonged to Jiangning, and he knew about the Fan Zhu family, but the other forces did not know the details. Liu Zhaoyu was shocked, completely unaware of the relationship between the Fan family and Jiang Ning? The Fan clan lives in Yuhang, separated from the power of the Wanling Chen clan in Yongyang and Wuzhou, Wanling does not pay close attention to the Fan clan, only knows that Fan Wenlong has let Fan Che idle because of Yueqing City, and he has not seen his recovery in recent years. When he heard the news of Fan Wenlong at first glance, he was the commander of Xu Ruyu's personal guards, how could Liu Zhaoyu not be shocked?

Liu Zhaoyu no longer had the intention of going to the restaurant with Kou Zichan to get drunk, and said goodbye to Kou Zichan halfway, saying: "When Zhaoyu went out of Beijing and settled, Mengzi was in good health, and Ziangchao was promoted to the ranks of the sages, and he couldn't bear to give up. "I hired a carriage and went straight to the inn.

Kou Zichan listened to the sound of empty hooves all over the street, was stunned, stood stunned for a while, and asked Xiao Yuan: "The world has changed, it is a promising time, Xiao Yuan, are you willing to go to the army to fight for fame?" ”

Xiao Yuan shook his head and said: "Xiao Yuan is a rough man, he used to be a mountain guest in Mayi, but he was just asking for a way to live, I would rather drive a big car for my husband, and Mr. should not forget to reward me with a sip of wine." ”

Kou Zichan smiled miserably: "Who is willing to sleep together after success?" Liu Zhaoyu is full of poems and books, but he can't see it as well as you, yes, Jiang Ning can't drink the burning knife, I invite you to go to the Stacked Tobacco Building to drink autumn dew. ”

"Where is the Stacked Smoke Building?"

"The building run by the Jiang family was renamed Stacked Smoke Building yesterday, and Ru Yu took it from the sentence 'Stacked Smoke and Green in the Cold Pool, Leaf Leaf Flying Autumn Words', and wrote the word 'Stacked Smoke' with his own hand, and it will spread all over Jiangning within three days."

Xiao Yuan said: "There is a pool behind the building, but it is not a cold pool, now the weather is getting hotter, and it is not commensurate with the cold pool. ”

Kou Zichan smiled: "What is the benefit of knowing this, and it doesn't hinder drinking?" ”

Xiao Yuan said: "Exactly, exactly, it doesn't hinder drinking, so why bother?" "Sit back to the left, whip up and drive to the smoke building.

Fan Wenlong and Xu Boying went to Qingfeng Mansion together to requisition Qingfeng Wei Jianyong.

According to the old system of cavalry battalions, the elite of the cavalry battalion is recruited from the armies to fill the Qingfengwei, which will inevitably reduce the overall combat power of the armies, and the generals of Sima Ya and Xu Boying all thought that they should choose the warriors from Tunding to fill the Qingfengwei, so that the combat power of the Qingfengwei is much weaker than the Qingfeng cavalry, and if Xu Ruyu's personal guard army is not the most elite of the armies, it is a little unreasonable. Xu Boying discussed with the generals in Sima Ya for a long time, but there was no result, so he came to Qingfeng Mansion with Fan Wenlong and let Xu Ruyu make up his mind personally.

Xu Ru smiled foolishly: "I will entrust Qingfeng Wei to Wenlong, even if it is a new Ding, within two years, it will become an elite, it doesn't matter." ”

Shao Haitang was walking in to present other matters, and when he heard this, he said: "The Baiyi clan is thin, although Baiyi has an army, it is not appropriate to drive it to participate in a vicious war, you can cut the Baiyi army, and transfer two thousand elites from it to fill in the Qingfeng Guard." ”

Although Xu Boying and Fan Wenlong knew that their strategy was very good, they did not open their mouths to echo it. Shao Haitang's policy is to completely ban the military force of the Baiyi clan. Don't ask what the reaction of the Baiyi clan is, and the generals of the Baiyi clan in the army don't want to see this.

Xu Ruyu sat there silently, speechless. The Baiyi clan withered for a hundred years, one of the nine clans in the past, and now the clan has less than 300,000 people, Xu Ru can't bear to use the Baiyi army for vicious battles and consume Baiyi's valuable people, even if the Baiyi army was transferred to the battlefield of Nanmin last year, the real vicious battles are undertaken by the Xiaowei army and the Su Guard, and this year the Baiyi army was not requisitioned at all to participate in the war in Wenling.

Xu Ruyu sighed and said, "I will invite Mo Ruiping, Zi Yangqiu, and Ming Xi to come over." ”

At this time, he entered the Qingfeng Mansion with Ming Xi and Ziyang, but saw Xu Ruyu, Shao Haitang, Xu Boying, Mei Tierui, Yi Guanyuan, Jiang Lingtian, Zhang Zhongdao, and Kou Zichan were all in the hall, in addition, it was Fan Wenlong, an upstart who rose yesterday.

Zhu Gong Xianji, what is discussed must be a trivial matter, and it is related to the Baiyi clan, that is, Mo Ruiping is uneasy in his heart, that is, Mo Mingxi and Ziyangqiu look at each other, and I don't know what big moves Xu Ruyu will take when he returns to Jiangning.

Xu Ruyu invited Jimo Ruiping to sit beside him and said, "Mr. Ruiping, since the beginning of your residence in Jiangning, Ruyu has been slack, and I hope you will forgive me." I once said to Mr. Ziyang: Hanyi and Zhufan are all born in the world, and it is natural to share the world, and there is no dispute. I entrusted Mr. Kou and Fang Su, who is about to come to Jiangning, and the system is related to Baiyi, and Baiyi should also be involved, so I asked Mr. to help Ru Yu in his difficulties. ”

Ji Mo Ruiping hurriedly shouted: "Don't dare to be." ”

Ziyangqiu saw that Fan Wenlong was present, and had already guessed what was going on, when Xu Ruyu was not in Jiangning, there were already people discussing this matter, but the matter was very important, and no one had brought the matter of cutting and merging the Baiyi Army to the hall for public discussion, but he didn't expect that the next time Xu Ruyu returned to Jiangning, someone would mention this proposal. The existence of the Baiyi Army is indeed an obstacle to the military system of Sima Ya and Changshi Mansion, but it adds a lot of pressure to the political affairs hall. Needless to say, except for the Baiyi people and the generals of the Baiyi bloodline, everyone wants to cut and merge the Baiyi army.

Shao Haitang coughed lightly, and everyone turned their eyes to him. Shao Haitang walked out of his seat, stood in the middle of the meeting hall, and said slowly: "The remnants of Wenling are wiped out, and most of the troops stationed in Qingjiang will be moved to the vicinity of Jiangning to garrison. ”

Xu Ruyu didn't speak, but quietly cast his eyes on Ming Xi, Ji Mo Ruiping, and Zi Yangqiu.

Shao Haitang's voice was like a grand bell and Da Lu, and he continued: "You can choose two thousand elite soldiers from the Baiyi army to fill the Qingfeng Guard and defend Jiangning. ”

Jimo Mingxi kneeled in front of Xu Ruyu, knelt down, and said: "Mingxi has forgotten his origin on the top of the Yongyang City Tower, and only knows that this life is given back by Mr. ”

Xu Ruyu helped him up and said: "It's not that I don't trust you, it's not that I'm alone with your Baiyi clan, I want to create an unprecedented world, when I have unprecedented courage, the Baiyi clan has suffered a lot of trauma for hundreds of years, I want to do my best not to let Baiyi add another trauma, this heart is sincere, heaven and earth can be learned." ”

In the heyday of the Baiyi clan before Zhaowu, the number of people was as high as four million, and it was the head of the nine clans. However, at this time, Baiyi only lived in a corner of Wuling Mountain, and the number of people was less than 300,000. If Xu Ruyu had not risen in Qingjiang, the extinction of the Baiyi clan would have been predictable.

Zi Yangqiu followed Xu Ruyu for a long time, how could he doubt Xu Ruyu's mind at this time, but he was worried that Jiang Ning would not finally win in the hegemony of the world, and where would the Baiyi clan with no reading military strength go? Is it to survive and prostrate at the feet of another people?

Xu Ruyu said: "After capturing Wenling, in the territory of Qingjiang, the war is temporarily peaceful, and the Sanmiao in the southwest Yunling and the Jingnan family on the west side of Huaiyu Mountain should get along with each other as friends. The armies will be moved to Jiangning, Qingjiang will be garrisoned by the garrison, the number of the Baiyi Army will be cancelled, 2,000 elite soldiers will be transferred to fill the Qingfeng Guard, and the rest of the soldiers will be transferred to the Qingjiang Garrison Army. Mr. Jimo and Mr. Ziyang, what do you think? ”

Compared with Shao Haitang's suggestion of the immediate and decisive disarmament order, Xu Ruyu's suggestion gave the Baiyi clan a ten-year reprieve, which is also the best disposal strategy that Zi Yangqiu can think of, and glanced at Ji Mo Ruiping, although Ji Mo Ruiping has no right to dispose of the Baiyi family, Zi Yangqiu hopes to give the king of the past one last respect.

That is, Mo Ruiping looked panicked, lost his soul, and did not know where the fate of the Baiyi clan would go? Seeing that Zi Yangqiu was already moved, knowing that this was the best result, Mu Ne nodded, and said in his mouth: "Thank you Ruyu for your thoughtfulness, but I am old and have no energy to participate in the ceremony, and I hope that Ruyu will not invite others." ”

Ji Mo Ruiping inherited the throne of Baiyi, the Baiyi clan is in deep danger because of the bitter battle with Yue County, the young Ji Mo Ruiping and the Baiyi people have a proud and yearning for freedom of heart, he led the Baiyi people to fight bravely, but failed to win an inch of land for the tribesmen under the mountain, and then was taken to Puji Island, trapped on the desert island for more than ten years, when returning to the land, but found that the tribe had gone down the mountain, Jiangning implemented the policy of supporting Baiyi and suppressing the royal power of Baiyi, that is, Mo Ruiping successively detained Yongyang and Jiangning, They are not allowed to return to the place where the tribe lives on Wuling Mountain. Compared with the other Baiyi people, Ji Mo Ruiping finally did not let down his deep vigilance against the people under Wuling Mountain. Such vigilance not only alienated him from the people of Jiangning, but also alienated from the parent of Xu Ruyu, who had been a teacher all his life.

Ji Mo Ruiping's footsteps out of the council hall were a little staggering, Ji Mo Mingxi couldn't bear to look at his father's desolate back, turned his head, and was facing the dimly lit central hall, and his face became gloomy.

Xu Ruyu sighed secretly, withdrew his gaze from the back of Jimo Ruiping's departure, and said: "The matter of the merger of the Baiyi army was decided in this way, Wenlong went to the Baiyi army garrison to recruit two thousand Jianyong to fill in Qingfengwei, and the remaining Baiyi army was transferred to the first army of the Qingjiang garrison, Ziyang Yalan and Sun Lai were transferred to Sima Ya, and Mingna was promoted to the captain of the Qingjiang garrison, commanding the first army of the Qingjiang garrison, stationed in Lishui, Qingjiang, and Fengling. Ling Tian also did not need to concurrently lead the post of head of the Qingjiang Xingyuan Xingxing Battalion, and in the past, he chose to go to Lishui to take up his post, and transferred Li Yi to the left sign of the Qingjiang Xingyuan Xing Camp and the captain of the Qingjiang Garrison, and transferred the third and fourth battalions of the Su Guard Army to the Second Army of the Qingjiang Garrison, stationed in Wenling and Yantan. The garrison army implements a fourteen-round suspension system. Feng Yuanyuan and Zhou Shilong each led the Xiao Guard Army and the Su Guard Army to return to Xin'an to garrison. ”

Fourteen rounds of rest of the army are 40 percent of the troops in rotation to rest on the border, and 60 percent of the troops are used in tuntian, and the income from tuntian is used for military millet. In the central area far from the border, a 12-round suspension system can be implemented, and only 20 percent of the troops can be used to garrison the area.

Only then did Zi Yangqiu know that Xu Ruyu's move was to pave the way for Jimo Mingxi. If Mo Mingxi didn't have a chance to go out of the town, and he didn't have a chance to lead the army, he would eventually let other generals who continued to make meritorious contributions squeeze out of the core layer.

Shao Haitang and others also had no reason to oppose Jimo Mingxi's departure from Qingjiang, and Jimo Mingxi handed over Sima Yazhong's affairs, and did not wait for Ziyang Yalan, Sun Lai and others to return to Jiangning, so they went to Qingjiang Lishui with the text. He was accompanied by Fan Wenlong, who was going to select two thousand of the most elite soldiers from the Baiyi Army, which was about to be transferred to the garrison, to fill in the Qingfeng Guard.

Uncle Sun Fangwu and his wife also accompanied the southbound procession, and they pushed Xu Ruyu's marriage handwritten letter and went to Quanzhou, southern Fujian, to officiate the wedding for Liang Bao and Sleeve. If he sent other people to go, Liang Bao would find a reason to push the pond, but his uncle Fang Wude was highly respected, and Xu Ruyu regarded him as an elder, but there was no marriage letter from Xu Ruyu, and Liang Bao did not have the courage to fight with him. Accompanying his uncle and grandson Fangwu and his wife was a long convoy. Xu Ruyu couldn't get out and went to watch the ceremony, and was replaced by his uncle and grandson Fangwu, and others naturally couldn't be lazy.

But on the night when Jimo Mingxi and his party left Jiangning City, Puji's good news came.
