Chapter 652: Into Youzhou

Hearing that Wang Yan was going to Youzhou to report on his work, Dugu Meier was a little uneasy, and when she knew that she had his blood in her belly, Dugu Meier had unconsciously wanted Wang Yan to stay by her side.

After listening to the report of his subordinates, after learning that Wang Yan's trip to Youzhou was invincible in all directions, the hanging heart fell a little, and when the night fell, Yue'e sent Wang Yan's handwritten letter, which was written in great detail, Dugu Meier read it several times, until she wrote down every word in the letter, and then reluctantly burned the letter to ashes.

Wang Yan was appointed as the pastor of Youzhou, and the hundred officials did not have any objections, they all knew what kind of place Youzhou was, and they couldn't afford to be jealous and obstructed at all, but a few officials questioned Wang Yan's ability to command the army, and the 130,000 army was handed over to a young man less than twenty years old, which was a bit of child's play, but under the unanimous insistence of the military, the hundred officials finally agreed.

After three days of preparation, Aji heard that Wang Yan was going to Youzhou to be a pastor in Youzhou, and he ran out of the National Military Academy that night.

Wang Yan had no choice but to write a warrant and send it to the National Martial Arts Academy, otherwise, most of them would have been expelled from the school.

After a year of further study, Guan Ping and Aji's martial arts have improved a lot, and Aji, who has been down-to-earth, has made rapid progress, and has been able to fight for a hundred rounds with Guan Ping, which gave Wang Yan a surprise.

The 130,000 army, of which only 10,000 iron cavalry, was commanded by Feng Pojun before, and now it is still commanded by him, and the remaining armor soldiers are divided into six armies, which are commanded by Wang Yan, Xiao Feng, Guan Ping, Xu Ying, Zhou Li, and Tu Yong.

The army marched out of Hangu Pass, went north from Bazhou, went out of Wuguan, and went straight to Youzhou.

The five states controlled by the White Lotus Sect are Youzhou, Yanzhou, Bingzhou, Liangzhou, Xiangzhou, Youzhou is adjacent to Xiangzhou in the east, Liangzhou in the north, Yanzhou in the west, and Bingzhou in the south, Xiangzhou has many mountains and rivers, it is rumored that the nest of the White Lotus Sect is in the mountains and rivers of Xiangzhou, Liangzhou borders the Turks, in recent years, the White Lotus Sect has accumulated a lot of wealth in Liangzhou through trading with the Turks, Yanzhou is connected to Yingzhou, I heard that the White Lotus Sect has laid a heavy army in Yanzhou to prevent the invasion of the black fox, as for the annexation, it is the gateway of the White Lotus Sect to the south.

There is a pass in the state called Huguan, Huguan City is more than ten zhang high, the pass is less than three zhang, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the White Lotus Sect only needs to occupy Huguan to be able to isolate from the Central Plains.

The news of Wang Yan's appointment as the pastor of Youzhou had already spread to the five states, and what surprised Wang Yan but made it reasonable was that the White Lotus Sect did not make any moves.

Wang Yan originally thought that the White Lotus Sect controlled Huguan and fought with him, but the White Lotus Sect did not do so.

Wang Yan's army successfully entered Bingzhou, did not encounter any obstacles along the way, and smoothly entered the territory of Youzhou, Wang Yan did not stay in the surrounding counties, but went straight to Youzhou City, only Youzhou City can accommodate 130,000 troops stationed, Wang Yan did not want to station the army outside the city, it was too dangerous.

Youzhou Thorn Shi Luo Nayan took a group of civil officials from Youzhou City out of the city to greet Wang Yan, after seeing Wang Yan so young, Luo Nayan sighed slightly, but he didn't know that his expression was all seen by Wang Yan.

As early as when he left Bazhou, Wang Yan ordered the whole army to abide by discipline and not to disturb the people, otherwise the military law would deal with it, so it can be said that he did not commit any crimes along the way.

After the army entered the city, Xiao Feng, Xu Ying, Zhou Li, and Tu Yong guarded the four gates, while Feng Pojun and Guan Ping were stationed in the military camp of the Prefecture Mufu to support the four gates at any time.

Seventy percent of the officials in Youzhou are in Youzhou City, and the west of the Prefecture Governor's Mansion is next to the government office, and the officials are all working in the government office.

The scene of the departure still has to go, Wang Yan got to know the officials who served in Youzhou City through the banquet, and remembered some of the main characters, such as the assassin Shi Luo Nayan, the prince Cui Chengzhi, and the captain Xiahou De.

The history of the thorn is the same as the rank of the state pastor, it is a combination of civil and military, but because the state pastor holds the military power, the history of the thorn is one point shorter, and it is the same everywhere, and the same is true for Liu Tang in Xinzhou.

Cui Chengzhi is the governor of Youzhou City, the prime minister of Youzhou City's affairs, and the captain Xiahou De leads the few 1,000 government troops in the city.

The tiger, leopard and eagle three guards belonging to Youzhou have been completely damaged in the fight with the White Lotus Sect, and now not only Youzhou, but also the official army in the five states is almost extinct, the fundamental reason is that the people of the five states are very brainwashed and do not trust the government, so that the government cannot recruit soldiers, no one comes to be a soldier, and the young people of the five states have joined the White Lotus Sect.

After the banquet, Wang Yan invited Luo Nayan to the study alone.

Wang Yan's study has been tidied up, and the person who sorted it out is not a dyed immortal, but Xue Ying, who came with her, Wang Yan didn't want to bring her, but Xue Ying used the excuse of being afraid of being exposed, Wang Yan had to weigh where it was safest to leave Xue Ying.

Xue Ying didn't say much, after she left, if someone made another difficulty, what would be the consequences, after thinking about it, Wang Yan decided to take Xue Ying with her, remembering that Hao Yue had arranged for the two to accompany her at the beginning, and she refused simply, and she was slapped in the face.

Luo Nayan took a look at Xue Ying in and out, and was attracted by Xue Ying's beauty and came back to his senses in an instant.

Xue Ying closed the door when she went out, and only Wang Yan and Luo Nayan were left in the room, Wang Yan led Luo Nayan to the main hall and made a gesture of please to the chair next to her.

"The banquet just now was not well received, and I ask Luo Tingshi to forgive me, Yan has just arrived, and he is not familiar with the place, and he still needs to consult Lord Tingshi for some questions, and I hope that Lord Luo will not hesitate to tell Luo." Wang Yan smiled, his tone was very polite, and on the way, Wang Yan learned about Luo Nayan through the intelligence of Tianjin Division.

He served as the assassin of Youzhou for ten years, and made a lot of achievements in the people's livelihood, winning the hearts of the people, but he was not a member of the White Lotus Sect, five years ago, the White Lotus Sect broke through Youzhou City, captured Luo Nayan, and asked him to surrender to the White Lotus Sect, Luo Na did not obey his words, scolded, and the White Lotus Sect wanted to kill him, but the people did not allow it, blocked the streets and asked for his life, the White Lotus Sect could not ignore the public opinion, and finally let Luo Nayan go, but took Luo Nayan's eldest son away as a proton, since then, Luo Nayan is indeed honest.

"What does the state pastor want to know, but it doesn't hurt to ask." Luo Nayan looked at Wang Yan for a long time, he was a little puzzled, because the man in front of him gave him a much more mature feeling than him, whether it was the details or the aura revealed in his gestures, it was not like what he should have at his age.

"Don't hide it from Lord Luo, Yan came this time, and the dispute with the White Lotus Sect is inevitable, but Yan also knows that Lord Luo's eldest son was taken away as a proton by the White Lotus Sect, and Yan has already sent someone to secretly search and rescue, before rescuing the proton, Yan will not embarrass Lord Luo for anything."

After listening to Rona Yan, he sighed and said in a low voice.

"Terminally ill, what can be cured?"

"Lord Luo has no confidence in the imperial court like this?" Wang Yan thought for a moment and replied seriously. "The current situation is indeed not optimistic, but Yan is willing to break this situation in Youzhou."

"What do you think of the people of Youzhou?" Ronalyan raised his head and asked casually.

"If you want to break the situation, you have to start with the people of Youzhou." Wang Yan said categorically.
