After the meeting, everyone went back happily.

Undoubtedly, in the short term, this is a win-win ending, which is beneficial to everyone, so that Xun Yu will justifiably carry out reforms throughout the country, and anyone who resists will disobey the emperor's orders.

Liu Xie was only afraid and proud, because he had opened up the source of money in his own hands, and when he started to do things, his waist was much stiffer, and he no longer had the feeling of being inferior in front of Xu Ji. However, Liu Xie is just an empty joy in the end, and the bamboo basket is empty, if a large amount of money is used on Zhang Xiu, it will be equivalent to building an army for Xu Ji.

Xu Ji and Xun Yu were in a good mood, and returned to their house with a smile and a smile in the carriage.

As soon as he entered the living room, he bumped into Xu Wei, a kid, looking at his red glasses, he knew that he had been busy for Ma Teng's affairs for a night, and when he saw Xu Ji, he said happily: "The lord is very happy!" Xu Ji and Xun Yu glanced at each other, knowing that Xu Wei had made a new discovery, so they pulled him to sit down, Xu Ji smiled and said, "Wen Feng, what happened to Ma Teng is coming to an eye so soon?" ”

Xu Wei was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head and said: "The lord thinks too much of my Xu Wei, where is the news so fast?" It's good news from Liaodong. ”

Xu Ji was overjoyed when he heard this, and said excitedly: "Wen Feng, you can make it clear. Xu Wei said in detail.

More than two months ago, Deng Ai's unit finally came to Liaodong along the coastline, where the first day encountered a small force of cavalry of the Xianbei people, Deng Ai as the vanguard personally accompanied the army to meet the head-on attack, and played hide and seek with the Xianbei people in the dense forest, because there was Gongsun Fan, the old horse who surrendered to the Yanzhou army. Therefore, the small force of the Xianbei people was beaten by the Yanzhou army, and they could not give full play to their advantages at all.

Forthwith. Deng Ai's follow-up troops outflanked him from both flanks. Divided into a combined attack, the Xianbei cavalry, which had been killed by a small number of people, fled in a hurry. Deng Ai and others also captured a lot of Xianbei captives. After some torture to extract a confession. Deng Ai knew that many of the Xianbei people had deployed troops in Liaodong, and with this as information, Deng Ai showed his might in Lelang and other counties, and won successive battles, and his whereabouts were uncertain. Guerrilla tactics were adopted, and the Xianbei people who were killed cried endlessly.

Soon after. Deng Ai led his troops to fight with the people of the Gongsun family.

Of course, before that, Deng Ai used a trick outside the city. Constantly harassing the Xianbei people who had surrounded the city of the Gongsun family a long time ago, making the Xianbei people suspicious. The forces were scattered. was broken by Deng Ai one by one, and the Gongsun family took advantage of the situation to go out of the city, and joined forces with Deng Ai and others to kill them. The Xianbei people were defeated. Deng Ai led the army into the city.

The people of the Gongsun family finally knew the news of Gongsun Zhandi's death and Gongsun Zhan's last words before his death, and finally decided to cooperate with Yanzhou in addition to grief.

After a series of military operations, Gongsun Fan already admired Deng Ai, a prodigy, so he tried his best to build a bar, and the clan soldiers of the Gongsun family were handed over to Deng Ai's command. Deng Ai then shined. Soon, the two large territories in Liaodong, which were separated by the Xianbei people, were opened, and Liucheng and Pinggang also fell into the hands of the Gongsun family. At this point, Liaoxi and Liaodong can finally communicate with each other.

Tian Chou and Deng Ai's army, which had been defending against the Xianbei people in Youbeiping, converged in one place, and the pressure was greatly reduced for a while.

The army of Youbeiping had the strategy of Deng Ai and Lu Xun. took the initiative to attack and launched a fierce counterattack against the Xianbei people, who had always been domineering. Chen Zhi's army, Zhang He and Gao Lan's army, Deng Ai and the army of the Gongsun family, the newly arrived Yellow Turban army, and the clan soldiers of the Zhen family, these five major legions were killed together. Youzhou reported success across the board. The pressure has been greatly reduced, which has laid a good foundation for the subsequent internal affairs construction.

Xu Ji laughed when he heard it. said to Xu Wei: "Wen Feng, you spread my news." If you want Deng Ai to come to Chang'an, you can leave the affairs of Youzhou to Zhang He and Gao Ran. ”

Xu Wei nodded. Xun Yu was concerned about another thing, frowned and said: "Youzhou is a bitter cold place, and now it is even more icy and snowy, the winter cold work must be done well, in this regard, although the two generals Zhang He and Gao Ran fought bravely, but I am afraid that there will be some negligence, the lord had better write a letter to tell the two of them to be good, and then there are Min Rou brothers and Tian Chou to check and fill in the gaps, there should be no problem this winter." ”

Xu Ji nodded and said: "That's true, those Yellow Turban Army are all from Yuzhou, they have never experienced such a cold and freezing, and they are the people who need to pay attention the most." After a pause, Xu Ji smiled and said: "Since the war in Youzhou is going well, I think it is better to let the Bingzhou army show its majesty." ”

Xu Wei was said to be very embarrassed, and immediately remembered something, frowned, and said: "Lord, the biggest problem now is that the wind and snow in winter are extremely large, not to mention pedestrians, even the army is very difficult to travel, I think the retreat of the Xianbei people in Youzhou is not only related to the defeat of the army, but also has a great reason for the weather." Is it difficult to combine the state army to attack in this situation? Xu Ji then remembered the problem of wind and snow, and said with a dumb smile: "Wen Feng is reasonable, but it is very difficult to travel on a snowy day, but I was negligent." ”

Thinking of this, Xu Ji suddenly had an idea: he should get a sled and snowboard out.

I remember when I read "Lin Hai Snow Plain" when I was a child, I was so intoxicated by the heroic posture of those guerrillas who came and went like the wind and whistled over the vast snow field. If you can build your own skis, then it will be much easier to travel in the snow, much faster than any horse. It's a pity that Xu Ji was in the south at the time, and before he could go to the longing north, he came to the Three Kingdoms era mysteriously.

Thinking of this, Xu Ji said excitedly to Xun Yu and the others: "By the way, I have a gadget here, although it is simple, but the idea is good. Enough to cope with snowy travel. ”

After that, he told the two people about the idea of snowboarding. After hearing this, the two looked at Xu Ji with strange eyes, as if they knew Xu Ji for the first time.

Xun Yu raised his forehead with his hand and said: "I have long heard that the lord has a ravine in his chest, and I don't know how many novelties there are, but since I arrived in Yanzhou, I have only seen the lord's academic achievements, although I also know that Yanzhou has a lot of special output of independent public creativity, but I haven't seen it in person, today is really an eye-opener!" ”

Xu Wei said happily: "If we have such a tool, then we can travel thousands of miles a day on the snow." Attack the enemy erratically. So that the other party can't even catch up with us, what is the strong crossbow plus this...... Ski. It's simply invincible! Xun Yu nodded on the side.

Xu Ji was said silently, he didn't expect it. It's just a snowboard, which will cause so much surprise to these two people.

Think about it, in ancient China, there were very few people and unexplored places, so the natural world became the biggest enemy of our human beings. As long as nature makes a little storm, human life will be greatly affected. Therefore, in ancient times, the weather and land factors were very important when marching and fighting. So "time of day" refers to this, maybe the weather factor of siege warfare is slightly weaker than "location" and "people", but in the field. The factor of time is often the key factor that determines the development of war.

Just like Xu Wei's analysis of the reasons for the Xianbei people's withdrawal. It takes into account the factor of time.

Therefore, if someone invents a tool that can resist the inconvenience caused by nature, then it is easy to imagine that people will be happy. After a while, Xu Wei and Xun Yu came over.

Xu Ji asked about Ma Teng's situation again, Xu Wei scratched his head, and looked at his embarrassed look and knew that he didn't want to make much progress in the short term.

All in all, in terms of Ma Teng and Yang Song, Xu Wei has already sent additional manpower, especially paying attention to the situation of Ma Teng and Yang Song giving away courtesans. Huan Fan said again about the possibility of Huan Fan's analysis after Xu Wei left last night, and Xu Wei's face changed greatly when he heard it. If you are restless any longer, you will leave.

Xu Ji stopped him. asked him about Jiang Wei's father, Jiang Wei, Xu Wei heard Jiang Wei's name show appreciation in his eyes, obviously very satisfied with Jiang Wei, and then said to Xu Ji that this Jiang Yi is a civil and military all-rounder. Especially a body of martial arts, quite powerful.

Xu Ji was funny in his heart, the tiger father has no dogs, and Jiang Wei's father is of course powerful. Xu Wei was worried about Ma Teng's affairs. Knowing the threat of these women, he said a few words to Xu Ji and Xun Yu, and left in a hurry.

Xu Wei walked on the front foot. Huan Fan entered the living room barefoot and yawned in clogs, and was still wearing pajamas. With a face, the image of holding the open mind jumped on the paper. Xu Ji almost thought that the ghost who was now recuperating in Bingzhou had come to Chang'an overnight.

When this son saw Xu Ji and Xun Yu in the hall. When the time came, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted respectfully. This kid is very much like Guo Jia, he is never ambiguous in big things, and he is casual in small things.

Looking at Huan Fan, Xu Ji couldn't help but think of Guo Jia, who was arranged by himself to go to Bingzhou at this time because he was a little sick, his heart was warm, he beckoned Huan Fan to sit down, and said with a smile: "You lazy worm, you actually just woke up, if you are given an official and a half-position in the future, I am afraid that you will not even be able to get up to participate in the early dynasty." ”

Huan Fan blinked his eyes and asked, "My lord, could it be that the imperial examination in the near future is based on our Yanzhou?" Xun Yu scolded with a smile: "You kid is clever, but aren't you afraid of being smart but being mistaken by cleverness?" Can't the lord give you a half-official position now? ”

Very annoyed and said casually: "What Mr. Xun said is reasonable, but who in Yanzhou doesn't know that the lord is not the kind of person who changes the law at will?" Since the imperial examination for the coming year has been decided, how can I arrange my official position in the court during this period? Isn't that a slap in the mouth? If I want to have a half-official position, then of course I have to take the exam, and the lord is so sure that I can pass the exam, of course, because the exam questions are based on my Yanzhou model. Hey, Mr. Wen Ruo just has the means, and he is willing to persuade the other party to do such a thing that threatens the interests of the powerful people in the DPRK and China. Xu Ji and Xun Yu looked at each other, but they didn't expect Huan Fan's heart to be so careful.

Xu Ji patted Huan Fan's shoulder appreciatively.

Huan Fan said again: "Actually, my lord, I have already woken up, but I just feel that it is really pleasant to lie in the quilt and read in this winter, because I am hungry.

Speaking of this, Huan Fan couldn't help but say, "By the way, my lord, who is the woman who sent back this morning?" Xu Ji and Xun Yu glanced at each other, and the latter sighed and told Huan Fan what had happened this morning.

After hearing this, Huan Fan immediately put away his usual hippie smile, frowned and cried, and after a long time, Huan Fan said: "Lord, I think Cao Mengde's tricks are not only like this, although this trick is powerful, it is a bit lonely." I think Cao Mengde still has a backhand, and it's not just Pang Tong who will attack the west. The lord should still figure out that Cheng Yu and Cao Hong came to Chang'an and brought those people with them. Xu Ji listened to it with a pang in his heart, and he still underestimated Cao Cao.

When in history did Cao Cao not formulate a multi-pronged strategy?

Xu Ji was thinking about it, but Huan Fan said to Xu Ji: "Lord." I can't think of anything about this now, so I'm going to Yang Song left and right. Now that these messengers are huddled together, maybe I can get some unexpected news from them? Yang Song's mouth is notoriously lax. Xu Ji nodded.

Huan Fan went back to the house and prepared to go.

Xu Ji and Xun Yu spoke again. Look at it and it's already noon and the two have had lunch. Xun Yu left, and in the past two days, he has been the busiest person in Chang'an City.

Today he will meet with the messengers. Of course, the purpose is to discuss the signing of the peace treaty. Anyway. Xun Yu is responsible for this matter.

Everyone left, and the lively Sikong Mansion suddenly became deserted. Xu Ji was left alone.

Asked the maid servant, only to know that Yu Fuluo had already gone out early in the morning, saying that he was going outside to be happy. Immediately, a member of the Phantom team reported to Xu Ji, saying that Yu Fuluo had gone to the largest green building in Chang'an to look for flowers and willows.

Xu Ji was amused in his heart. He had long heard that this satisfied man had a great sexual desire, and when he was in the Huns, he was unhappy every night, but his handsome brother wanted to be a little more serious.

Of course, Yu Fuluo couldn't find the kind of happiness he wanted here, after all, there was no kind of woman in Xu Ji's mansion for sexual pleasure.

And even Yu Fuluo is here. Xu Ji also had nothing to say to him. After walking around the courtyard for a while, Xu Ji returned to his study, where he sat down, picked up a book on the art of war and read it with relish.

This book on the art of war was transported from Yanzhou. The author is a scholar from Yanzhou Academy, and as for the name, Xu Ji has never even heard of it. However, some of the statements in this book have some original ideas: for example, this kid starts from the sentence "a gentleman is worthy of five virtues", and believes that an army is a person, and as a person, it can be without hands or feet. Although disability can be impossible, it is not fatal.

Losing one's head is the most terrible thing. There are two explanations for an army losing its head, one is that three armies are in command, and the other is that they are in command.

Then the author took the battles of the Yanzhou army in the past year as an example. This person believes that the Yanzhou Army is a team that has always had brains, and although Xu Ji is missing, the combat effectiveness of the Yanzhou Army has not been reduced. On the contrary, there is an aggressive posture. Therefore, this person thinks. The key to the strength of the Yanzhou army lies not in the elite weapons, but in the unique way in which the army is trained.

Subsequently, from the perspective of Yanzhou's various systems, the reasons for the strength of the Yanzhou army were seen.

The author of this book is quite knowledgeable. We have consciously linked the measurement of military affairs with economic politics. Listening to Huan Fan, there are still many such books in Yanzhou, and under the compatibility of the new "Five Virtues and the Beginning of the Theory", Yanzhou scholarship has been colorful, and it has initially had the prototype of the academic contention of hundreds of schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Taking a glimpse of the whole leopard, Xu Ji can see the earth-shaking changes in Yanzhou, which he has not returned to for a long time, from the writings of these scholars. But the most gratifying thing for Xu Ji is that these scholars are deeply influenced by traditional culture, so they are tepid in their studies, and there are no fanatical actions and signs.

At this time, the most expensive thing in Yanzhou is an ancient book. Since the Qin Dynasty, many books have been lost, and in later generations, more books have disappeared in the world for various reasons, which is a pity. Of course, part of the reason has a lot to do with the idea of overthrowing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism.

However, the essence of the "Five Virtues" that Yanzhou is talking about now is that everything does not lie in the Five Virtues at all, so the books of other schools of thought have become very precious.

Within a few years, even the doctrines of some rare schools of thought had been reorganized. For example, the "miscellaneous family" who is inclined to commercial trade, the "farmer" who is very familiar with agricultural production, and the "famous family" who pays attention to logic are all shining in Yanzhou.

Especially in the farmer's house, there are many theories of the ancients planting crops, although the average old farmer also has experience, but often knows what it is, but after the books of the farmer school are sorted out, a lot of advanced theoretical knowledge has been applied to agricultural production.

It is foreseeable that in the near future, Yanzhou's agriculture will take a leap forward. And that's just the peasant school, and even more so the other schools.

In addition to sorting out ancient books, some people began to write books and establish new doctrines.

All in all, Yanzhou's ideological prosperity has exceeded Xu Ji's imagination, maybe at the beginning, everything was in Xu Ji's hands, but today, Yanzhou's development is no longer dependent on any one person can do it.

Thinking of this, Xu Ji was relieved. Human nature is like this, after tasting it, it is difficult to let go of it, and if he has never tasted it, then it will be the same.

After trying all the sweetness of reform, the residents of Yanzhou asked them to return to their original life, and they would not agree to be killed for fear of being killed.

You can't achieve democracy by yourself, but you can sow the seeds of democracy, and the seeds that are in line with Chinese tradition and the need for reform. Xu Ji was imagining the future, but he heard a sexy female voice that seemed to have infinite seductive power coming over: "Lord Sikong, please drink tea." ”

Xu Ji looked at it in amazement, but the Yin family stood in front of him. (To be continued......)
