Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

At dusk, the Hu people cut down trees from the forests beside the lake and brought them to build the city. Looking at Huaihuang Town, which rose on the reckless grassland, Li Chongjiu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the way of the world now is the same as the principle of business in the previous life, such as the operation of business capital and the running of industry. Capital operation is profiteering, but only by running an industry can it really do things with its feet.

For example, those steppe barbarians, killing all day long, what if they are proud for a while, the power is gone, the empire is like quicksand in the wind, the Rouran Khanate is the best example, the city head changes the king's flag, but building cities and rivers, benefiting the people, is the real merit in the present generation, beneficial in the future.

As an official, you must benefit one party, and you have been in Huaihuang Town for two years, and you have built a Huaihuang Town, so that the people can live and work here in peace and contentment, which is the right thing. Twenty years later, those who fought and killed will not remember, but Qin Huang and Yang Guang, who built the Great Wall and opened up the Grand Canal...... Thinking of this, Li Chongjiu secretly snorted, these two people will also be infamous in the future. But no matter what, future generations will remember that there is a Huaihuang town on the grassland, a real city. Retracting his gaze from a distance, Li Chongjiu thought of his current situation, what he could do was limited, for the four sides, his current fruits, a war could be easily destroyed.

Turkic, Li Tang, Dou Jiande, Goguryeo's most powerful neighbors at the moment. When the new Turkic Khan ascended the throne, Li Tang immediately raised troops from Jinyang, and Yang Guangzheng, who was in Jiangdu, ordered the Sui army to extinguish the fire on all sides, and the anti-king of the world also fought with the Sui army everywhere.

And Li Chongjiu must rise quickly in it. If it is said that there should be a long-term and short-term goal, Li Chongjiu's long-term goal is, of course, to sweep away the heroes internally, to subdue the barbarians externally, to inherit the orthodoxy of the Han family, and to reign over the world. The medium-term goal is to seize Hebei within four to five years, and fight against the heroes with the momentum of the world. The short-term plan is to seize Zhuojun within one to two years and gain a foothold in Liaodong.

Li Chongjiu thought to himself, it should be good, but when he thought of Li Yuan's rise speed, he couldn't help but feel urgent. In history, Li Yuan Jinyang raised troops and captured Chang'an in half a year to complete the first phase of the plan. In the next three years, Xue Ju, Xue Rengao and his son, Li Rail, Liu Wuzhou, completed the second stage of stability in the rear of Guanzhong Shanxi, and finally defeated Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, and the world was basically decided.

Time is running out, among these four, the Turkic threat to themselves is imminent, but the priority needs to be concentrated on dealing with it, as for Li Tang and Dou Jiande, they will not threaten themselves now, but there will be a battle in the future, which can be relieved. And Goguryeo again.

And in order to fight against the Turks, with his current strength, he is definitely not enough, so he can only strengthen his power first, and the next target is Zhuojun. After Li Chongjiu thought about this, he immediately sent Lin Dangfeng, Wen Yanbo, Ji Chuan, Liu Yi, Wang Mahan, and Tan Zong to discuss the next step in attacking Zhuojun.

Wen Yanbo and Li Chongjiu said: "Among Zhuo County, Xue Shixiong is a famous general of the Great Sui, not inferior to Zhang Xutuo, the battle of Sashui that year, the twelve Sui armies were all defeated, and only Xue Shixiong defeated Goguryeo and returned, and now the 30,000 government troops in Zhuo County are all elites, if these 30,000 elites do not move, the strength of our army cannot be lightly attacked Zhuo County." ”

Wang Ma Han said: "But Zhuo County, we have to take it, half of the armor and baggage of the army that conquered Liaodong were in Zhuo County, as long as Zhuo County is a little, our army can pull up an army of 20,000 armor by relying on the weight of soldier rations, and the hoarding of grain is enough for us to raise another 50,000 troops for a year." ”

Lin Dangfeng waved his hand and said: "There are so many soldiers, yes, but the grain and grass may not be, in addition to Xue Shixiong's 30,000 horses and horses, Zhuo County also has 20,000 county soldiers, this year's Zhuo County has a poor harvest, and the wealthy scholars control the granary, hide the population, and refuse to pay taxes, so the 50,000 army eats the horses and chews, only relying on the accumulated grain of the year, no matter how much grain and grass are stored that year, it is not enough for them to eat." ”

Wen Yanbo said: "Now in Duanda, Hebei, he is fighting with Dou Jiande, and he has been defeated in successive battles, and Li Mi in Xingyang County led 200,000 Wagang troops to attack the eastern capital. Both are tight. In addition, now that Luo Yi is in rebellion, Liaodong Road has been broken, and it is impossible to attack Goguryeo again, and now Xue Shixiong's 30,000 elites are stationed in Zhuo County, but they are just decorations. Rather than hanging this elite division in the border counties, the imperial court should transfer it back to aid the eastern capital. ”

Ji Chuan nodded and said: "Yes, Pushan Gong Li Mi was born in a scholar family, and he is just a hero of the world, but I didn't expect that Hanwei Dou Jiande could also rise in Hebei, and subdue Wang Xuba, Gao Shida, and Zhang Jin are called the three, and they are really the heroes of today." ”

Ji Chuan has always looked down on people from poor families outside the Shi clan, and even sometimes Li Chongjiu is choked by him, but now he can say so about Dou Jiande here, which shows his influence in Hebei.

Wen Yanbo said at the moment: "Brother Ji, why should he be thin, Dou Jiande is just the Yellow Turban and Red Eyebrows of the past, where is the winner of the father, there is the ambition of Han Gaozu." ”

As soon as Wen Yanbo said this, Liu Yi and Lin Dangfeng echoed it. Ji Chuan said at the moment: "Getting back to the point, then according to Wen Sima's opinion, when will Xue Shixiong's army go south?" ”

Wen Yanbo pinched his beard and thought for a while, and said: "At present, there are no variables, as short as one year, and as fast as two or three years. ”

Ji Chuanyi said in surprise: "It takes so long? ”

Lin Dangfeng asked carefully: "Dare to ask Sima Wen, what is the variable?" Are the three anti-kings of Fazhu Li, Dou Jiande, and Du Fuwei effective? ”

Wen Yanbo shook his sleeves and said, "No, of course, the variable is that Jinyang stayed behind Li Yuan." ”

Everyone nodded, Li Yuan's rebellion is not a secret now, the news came that Li Yuan's sons Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, and Li Sanniang, who were hostages in Xijing, did not know where to go. And Jinyang's deputy stayed behind Wang Wei, and Gao Junya was also placed under house arrest. Now Li Yuan has quietly taken out the knife in his arms, revealing his edge.

It's just that whether Li Yuan wants to stand on his own feet and wait and see what happens, or whether he wants to take Xijing directly, is still unknown.

"If Li Yuan rebels, there is no doubt that the target must be Xijing, Li Yuan admits that the Li clan of Longxi, and among the Guan Sergeant clan, there are more friends than him, so Guanzhong is where his hegemony lies. is the so-called rich and noble without returning to the hometown is like walking at night in brocade clothes, so Li Yuan has 110,000 reasons not to sit in Taiyuan, or to enter Hebei in the east, but to attack Xijing. And if Li Yuan marches into Guanxi, unless the Son of Heaven returns to the Eastern Capital in person, he will only have to transfer Xue Shixiong's elite soldiers. ”

Listening to Wen Yanbo's words, everyone nodded, Li Valve is a gate lord clan, and his actions must be based on his best interests. And in the same position, if Li Chongjiu stays in Taiyuan, it will be a death to enter Guanzhong now, otherwise Xue Ju's father and son, Li Liang and others will all want to get involved in Guanzhong, and in the end it will not be Li Yuan's turn.

Li Chongjiu smiled when he heard this, he had been trying hard to delay the time for Li Yuan to raise troops, and in the end, it was up to Li Yuan to be faster. However, the longer Li Yuan's army dragged on, Li Mi, Dou Jiande, and even Xue Ju's father and son, Li Liang's forces against Li Yuan would be stronger, and these would be Li Tang's obstacles in the future.

Wen Yanbo looked at everyone's faces, and suddenly said with a straight face: "If everyone thinks that once Li Yuan raises troops and Xue Shixiong goes south, we can take advantage of the situation to seize Zhuo County, then it is a big mistake. Although Xue Shixiong went, there were still 20,000 county soldiers in Zhuo County, and as far as I know, most of the 20,000 county soldiers are currently under the orders of the Lu family. ”

"Fan Yang Lu's family?" Ji Chuan's face changed.

Li Chongjiu is also solemn, when the Western Jin Dynasty, the characters are romantic, when the top grade gate valve belongs to the Hongnong Yang family, Langya Wang family, Chen Liuxie family and Qiaojun Huan family four families. Later, when the Northern Dynasties were sinicized, it was believed that the Qinghe Cui family, the Fanyang Lu family, the Taiyuan Wang family, and the Xingyang Zheng family were pushed by the clothes, and the first-class surname of the Han people was determined, that is, the highest gate of the Shi clan in the world, and they were collectively called the four major clans.

At that time, although the Li family in Longxi was respected, it was still not as good as the eyes of the four major clans, and after Li Tang won the world, he forced five surnames and seven wangs, seven surnames and ten families, the Li family was in the front, and the rest were all behind, but the four major clans did not admit it, and they still intermarried internally, and later even had the four major clans, and would rather marry their daughters to Jiupin officials than marry the crown prince.

Wen Yanbo said: "The Lu family of Zhuo County is the only gate valve in Shandong who is ranked with the surname Cui. Since the Northern Dynasties, the power of the Cui surname is in Qingqi, and the Lu family is in Youzhou. At that time, the Northern Dynasty was extremely strong, subduing the entire northern desert in the north and pressing the river in the south, but for the local, it was still necessary to entrust the four major clans to govern. ”

Li Chongjiu stopped his hand and said: "I understand, what Wen Sima means, even if I take Zhuo County, if I don't have the support of Fan Yang Lu's family, I won't be able to sit on Zhuo County, right?" ”

Wen Yanbo nodded and said, "Exactly." Zhuo County is different, the upper valley after the war, has been dilapidated, most of the local scholars are also migrated, or burned in the war, as for Liaoxi, Liaodong County, the land is vast and sparsely populated, Huai Huang, Yuyi two towns, and many people are in the company of Fanren. Taishou doesn't need to think about local forces, but in the land of Zhuo County, there are 90,000 households, and the local officials, the people, and the county soldiers are all close to Fanyang Lu's family, and it is not difficult for Taishou to take Zhuo County, but if you really have Zhuo County, you must have the support of Fanyang Lu's family, or ......"

Speaking of this, Wen Yanbo stopped. Tan Zong was a fool, and asked at the moment, "Or what?" Don't say half a word. ”

"Or just uproot the Lu clan and leave no one behind!" Ji Chuan said flatly.

Wen Yanbo bowed his hand to Li Chongjiu and said: "No, so that the king has the world in his heart, he needs to take benevolence and righteousness first!" ”

Wang Mahan said angrily: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, Lao Tzu has long seen those gate lord clans, but has the prince and general Xiangning heard of it?" What kind of gate valve background, you can see everyone else as ants, I am a phoenix, I can't get used to this set for a long time, if I break Zhuo County, I have to kill these people with eyes on the top of their heads. ”

"It's a big rebellion, this is a violent act, a cruelty of business! It's not what Renjun is called. Wen Yanbo said quickly.
