What the lord of the Chinese army said was that if he wanted to take the initiative in the benefits of salt and iron, the Xiongnu did not have this ability at all, if it was, the Huns could go south at any time to plunder due to lack of food and clothing, but now it is different from the past, otherwise, the Huns would not provoke such a large-scale battle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Xi Zhicai listened to Liu Tai's confident words, nodded and said.

"Hehe" Liu Tai smiled, there is no controversy about this matter, it's just that Queen Rouge is thinking about it, looking at Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia and Dongfang Jue, Liu Tai asked: "You say, this big war, where to start, can end the war as soon as possible?" ”

The most important thing is that in order to restore the operation of the major official roads in Jizhou, the north has spent a lot of money to repair, and the number of workers called is hundreds of thousands, if the war in the north drags on, the finances of the north will be very tight.

Historically, a country's strength has a very direct relationship with major cities, the reason why northern Xinjiang can be strong to such a point in just a few years, there is a big reason because the transportation in northern Xinjiang is developed, and the transportation of various materials is extremely convenient, which is also the result of Liu Tai spending a lot of money to build roads, Jizhou is a continent, hundreds of thousands of years are one of the most important gathering places of the Chinese nation, the convenience of transportation, is extremely important to Jizhou, if the minimum traffic can not be satisfied, how to resume production, restore the people's stable life?

"Lord, the biggest constraint is always the lack of grain and grass, if you want to end the war as soon as possible, we should start with the grain and grass of the Huns, although the Huns seem to have 800,000 troops, but over the years not only the Central Plains have been plagued by natural disasters, but the prairie is not much better, the supply of grain and grass for the 800,000 army, is it so easy?" Dongfang Jue suddenly raised his head and said to Liu Tai, looking as if he had figured out something, but he couldn't understand anything, and he had a vague feeling.

"Although the Huns do not have much food and grass, but after reducing the supply of the people, they can probably support the front line of 800,000 troops for three months, and now that a month has passed, there is no need to attack, as long as they can hold for two months, the Huns will retreat on all fronts." Xi Zhicai, who was in charge of the second group of Dragon and Tiger with Guo Jia, listened to Dongfang Jue's words, nodded with satisfaction, and said to Liu Tai.

"Shou? How to keep? If Queen Rouge divides the 800,000-strong army into eight teams and invades the major frontiers in batches, we will only be more passive, and it is better to see the real chapter on the battlefield. Glancing at Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia rarely retorted and said, how can it be that the opinions of the two people are good, no one is right or wrong, they are just expressing their own opinions.

"Our army can neither attack nor defend, in the opinion of subordinates, should take the golden mean, on the one hand to step up the attack on the Xiongnu grain road, on the other hand to guard the military village, closely monitor every move of the Xiongnu army, now the rouge queen does not know the reality of our army, will not launch a large-scale all-out attack in a short period of time, at most it is just a temptation." Dongfang Jue glanced at Guo Jia, then at Xi Zhicai, shook his head, and expressed his opinion.

"Lingyin is right, this method is feasible, so let's let Zhao Yun lead the two legions to patrol around the two army camps, if you can find the Huns' grain transportation route, then choose the opportunity to rob the grain, well, cattle and sheep can be properly sent back to the barracks, and the rest of the grain and grass are all burned on the spot, we can't get it, and we can't give it back to the Huns." Liu Tai smiled and said out loud, Zhao Yun was not in the account at this time, so he naturally couldn't get the order in time.

"You have to do a good job of concealment, if you are discovered by the Huns, it is not good to ambush in advance." Glancing at Dongfang Jue, Guo Jia looked very flat and said to Liu Tai, although Dongfang Jue was in the limelight again, but Guo Jia didn't care much, because of this strategy, Guo Jia had discussed it with Xi Zhicai long before the army went north, but it was just said in advance by Dongfang Jue today.

"Well, let you do this matter, remember, don't give Zilong too many restrictions, real military masters, only under a completely wide sky can you dig out your deepest military sense, if there are too many constraints, it will only shackle Zilong's footsteps." Liu Tai nodded, and said loudly to Guo Jia, in Northern Xinjiang, Guo Jia and Zhao Yun have a very good relationship, and they often interact with each other in private, let Guo Jia do it, and can control the scale to the greatest extent.

"No!" Guo Jia bowed to Liu Tai, the corners of his mouth curved an arc, and Zhao Yun's cooperation, Guo Jia is very much looking forward to it, this is the first time, of course, it will not be the last.

"You and Lingyin go down first, this king wants to talk to Zhicai." Liu Tai nodded, glanced at Dongfang Jue thoughtfully, and then said out loud.

"No, we will retire" Dongfang Jue frowned slightly when he heard that Liu Tai wanted to leave the royal tent with Guo Jia, but he quickly got up and said to Liu Tai with Guo Jia.

Not long after, Guo Jia and Dongfang Jue retreated from the royal tent together, Liu Tai looked at Xi Zhicai with a solemn expression, a fine light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "During this time, what are the movements of Wenruo and Gongda?" Do not hide it, but let the king know it all. ”

Xi Zhicai's lips were tightly pursed, looking at Liu Tai's solemn expression, and he tightened his heart for Xun Yu and Xun You, if he didn't take the initiative to monitor Er Xun, maybe the officials in Northern Xinjiang would never have found out that Er Xun had dealings with Emperor Ling, but after Liu Tai told Xi Zhicai everything, Xi Zhicai became the second person in the know, and Guo Jia was the third.

"Recently, Wen Ruo and the Son of Heaven have exchanged letters relatively normally, but Gongda has not moved, and he has not taken the initiative to contact the imperial court for more than a year to arrange a detailed work in northern Xinjiang, so he should have recognized his position." Xi Zhicai's face tightened, and every word he said was very cautious, neither adding oil or water, nor saying good things for Erxun.

"Well, Gongda's surname, this king knows better, if one of the two Xun will betray this king, it is absolutely impossible to be Gongda." Liu Tai's meaning is obvious, if something really betrayals, it must have been done by Xun Yu, but Liu Tai can't understand that he is a relative of the Han family, and for the foundation of the Han family, Liu Tai is more capable than Emperor Ling of Han to lead the people of the world on the road of glory, but why does Xun Yu choose to be loyal to Emperor Ling of Han? Could it be that there is some shady secret between them?

"I hope so." The hearts of the people are separated from the belly, and no one can see through it, so Xi Zhicai said lightly, and then bowed to Liu Tai and said: "Wen Ruo and the Son of Heaven have exchanged a total of eleven letters with each other in the past half a year, all of which have been recorded in the secret volume room of the Divine King's Mansion, except for the last two, the lord should have read them." ”

"Well, what's the content of the last letter?" Liu Tai nodded, the previous ten letters, the content is almost the same, that is, Xun Yu is required to closely monitor Liu Tai's every move, and ask Xun Yu to hand over the information of officials at all levels in Northern Xinjiang to Emperor Ling, of course, there are other things, but they are not as important as this, for the files of officials in Northern Xinjiang, Xun Yu has always refused Emperor Ling's request on the grounds that it is difficult to obtain the files, which Liu Tai is very satisfied with.

In fact, if you want to get these information, it is not easy for Xun Yu to do it, after all, Xun Yu's status in Northern Xinjiang is too high, even if the second group of dragons and tigers has no secrets for Xun Yu, of course, except for the people who monitor Xun Yu, if it weren't for Xun Yu has not gone too far, maybe Liu Tai will not endure it until now, now Emperor Han Ling has not much to live, and Liu Tai naturally attaches more importance to the problem of treating Xun Yu, and at the last moment, Liu Tai does not allow the slightest mistake.

"The Son of Heaven hopes that Wen Ruo can send the information of all the female dependents in the Divine King's Mansion to the imperial court, but his subordinates are a little puzzled, how can the Son of Heaven be interested in the family members of the lord?" Xi Zhicai looked puzzled, obviously very incomprehensible to Emperor Ling's recent secret letter.

Xi Zhicai didn't understand, but when he heard Liu Tai's ears, it was no less than a thunderbolt on a sunny day! Because Liu Tai knew that it had only been three months since this letter came to Northern Xinjiang, which means that Emperor Ling sent this letter three and a half months ago, and if there is any news from Northern Xinjiang to Luoyang, the fastest horse will take more than half a month, which means that four months ago, there was some important news in Northern Xinjiang that reached Emperor Ling's ears.

What was four months ago? It was October of the third year of Zhongping, what happened in the days around October? Well, the Danhan Mountain military exercise is a big deal, but before this big event, there is one more thing, that is, Zhang Wan came to Liu Tai and lived in a secret attic in the Shenwang Mansion, it can be understood that Zhang Wan has just lived in the Shenwang Mansion for a few days, and the news reached the ears of Emperor Ling, and it is impossible for Xun Yu to convey this news, that is, Emperor Ling has another important eyeline in Northern Xinjiang, and this eyeline is even arranged in Liu Tai's Shenwang Mansion, the most terrifying thing is that this person's status is not low, Because there are no more than fifteen people who can know that Zhang Wan exists!

"Check, send everyone to check, the people in the God's King's Mansion must go through a big purge, this king doesn't like to have the Son of Heaven around him, you should understand!" Liu Tai looked at Xi Zhicai, his eyes flashed with fierce light, it seemed that he was extremely angry, what Emperor Ling did seemed to have touched Liu Tai's bottom line, but everyone has a bottom line, and Liu Tai's bottom line is his relatives and women, of course, there are also cultural relics under his command.

"The subordinates understand, but isn't this too eye-catching, after all, there are a lot of forces that pay attention to the God King's Mansion." Xi Zhicai was a little hesitant, it seemed that he didn't agree with Liu Tai's method, too, if he took a wrong step, it might cause a lot of losses to Liu Tai, and as Liu Tai's military advisor, he naturally had to think about everything for Liu Tai.

"Eye-catching? Heh" Liu Tai looked at Xi Zhicai, smiled coldly, and said in a cold tone: "Since they have all broken ground on the head of this king, don't they allow this king to resist?" Today's big man is not the big man he once was, the current king, and not Liu Tai, who was once used as a pawn by the Son of Heaven! ”

Xi Zhicai opened his head, shook his head with a wry smile, and was speechless, indeed, today, there is no one Liu Tai does not dare to provoke, sitting on the entire Hebei, and the people under his rule are much more than the eight states controlled by Emperor Ling, what else is there to be afraid of?

"Of course, the action can't be too big, try to check one by one, as long as there is an unknown source, or strange action, this king gives you full authority to deal with it." Liu Tai saw Xi Zhicai's wry smile, and suddenly came back to his senses, he was a little anxious just now, maybe it would be better to take it slowly.

"No!!" Xi Zhicai saw that Liu Tai was able to wake up suddenly, and he was immediately overjoyed, as a courtier, he was not afraid that the monarch would be stupid for a while, but he was afraid that the monarch would not repent!
