In the northern land, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the trees are shady.

The people who live here have finally survived the long winter and ushered in the summer.

Vitality.

In the fields, the crops have already been planted.

For more harvest, farmers are busy fertilizing and weeding.

As far as the eye can see, everyone seems to live and work in peace and contentment, and everything is in order.

Who would have thought that two years ago, on the same land, there was smoke everywhere, corpses were everywhere, and village houses were devoured in flames.

Hundreds of miles are uninhabited, and the grass is green.

There are human tragedies everywhere.

In just two years, everything is back on track.

Those who are alive, continue to work and live.

The pain of the past seems to be non-existent.

Above the court, it doesn't seem to matter whether the person sitting on the dragon chair is surnamed Xiao or Sima.

It doesn't matter whether it's Great Wei or Great Qi.

As long as everyone can cultivate the fields with peace of mind and have food to eat, everything is acceptable.

The small people only fight for a bite to eat, and with food, they can be satisfied.

The upper echelons fight for territory, fame, ambition, or even faith.

Liu Bao rode a war horse, surrounded by his own soldiers, and walked on the wilderness road.

Smoke curls in the distance, but he doesn't plan to go deep into the village and disturb the peaceful life of the local villagers.

Since last year, the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou have launched an attack on Sima Dou, and this battle has not stopped until now, and it is still continuing.

At present, the war has entered a state of seesaw, and neither side can help the other.

Sima Dou took advantage of his limited territory to consolidate his position and rule by lightly repaying his own interests.

And with good results.

In the battle, the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou occupied the territory and tried to encroach on and annex these newly occupied territories.

Shuangfa is bounded by the river, and it is difficult for the soldiers and horses in Liangzhou to take a step forward, and Sima Dou is not able to snatch back the lost territory.

Simply, the two hairs tacitly agreed to take the river as the boundary, stop and stop, and seize the time to accumulate strength.

The soldiers and horses of Liangzhou occupied the territory, and they were eager to digest and absorb it, connecting Liangzhou in the backyard with the new territory.

In this way, Liangzhou can achieve material self-sufficiency.

There are also hundreds of thousands of more people under his rule.

What is the population?

It's the troops!

It's a tax!

It's the people!

It's coolies!

In these days, human life is not valuable, but population is important.

Because population is an important source of government revenue.

After inspecting the border and making sure everything was under control, Liu Baoping returned to the barracks with his soldiers and horses.

Horses' hooves and dusty ......

As the sun was setting, it was already evening when I returned to the camp, just in time for dinner.

Liu Baoping sent his own soldiers to dinner, while he went to the camp of the Chinese army to meet Liu Zhang, the assassin of Liangzhou, his father.

Liu Zhang, the assassin of Liangzhou, is a famous general in the world, and his appearance is very elegant.

When many people first see him, they mistakenly think that he is a scholar.

He did read poetry since he was a child.

But......

His achievements in the military are far greater than those in the literary world.

He published a collection of poems at his own expense, but it did not cause any sensation or discussion, and he did not even make a splash in the literary world.

Perhaps for this reason, in the years that followed, Liu Zhang used all his talents in military affairs, made immortal military exploits, became a recognized general in the world, and was still a loyal minister endorsed by the emperor.

It's just that what this "loyal minister" did was not so loyal.

The two sons were in front of him.

The eldest son Liu Baoshun and the second son Liu Baoping.

The two brothers are the most promising people of the younger generation of the Liu family.

Liu Zhang motioned for the two brothers to sit down and speak.

"The old man plans to go to the court and ask the court to give him a knighthood. In this way, our Liu family can justifiably occupy the current territory. Anyone who dares to question the Liu family will be ruthlessly suppressed. ”

The soldiers and horses of Liangzhou bit a large piece of meat from Sima Dou's hand: half of the Hexi region, compared with Liangzhou, can be called fertile land and rich production.

The territory that has been occupied, Liu Zhang has no intention of letting it out.

I didn't plan to hand it over to the imperial court and let the imperial court send officials to govern.

He Liu Zhang is not as loyal as the world thinks.

The best way to justifiably own the newly occupied territory is to ask the emperor to issue a decree and an official document from the imperial court.

Following the example of Binh Duong County, the imperial court territory was turned into a family with one surname.

Liu Baoshun, the eldest son, asked, "I don't know what title my father wants?" ”

Liu Zhang, the assassin of Liangzhou, hesitated, "You two brothers, do you have ideas?" Despite the word. ”

"Please give the court the title of marquis! Our Liu family has made great contributions to the Great Wei River, but we have never been knighted, which is really chilling. Liu Baoshun said.

Liu Zhang, the assassin of Liangzhou, looked at Liu Baoping, "What do you think?" You have lived in the capital for several years, and you want to know more about the operation of the imperial court and the emperor's thoughts. ”

Liu Baoping bowed slightly, "My son thinks that the marquis is not enough to reward his father's merits." If you don't do it, you just ask the court to give you the title of prince and be a king with a different surname. ”

Liu Baoshun frowned obviously, "Conferring the title of king, this is a blatant provocation of the court and the emperor, I don't think it's appropriate." ”

Liu Baoping sneered, "Since the day the troops were withdrawn from the border front, and we refused to rescue the capital, we have been openly provoking the imperial court and the emperor. I thought that a single marquis would not be enough for subsequent development. Only the prince can obtain the qualification to lead all the troops and horses in the north in a righteous manner. ”

Liu Baoshun shook his head again and again, "This move is too risky, in case the court and the emperor are unwilling to compromise, we will be roasted on the fire." The end result is to shoot yourself in the foot. ”

Liu Baoping laughed, "Big brother is too cautious, and he looks too highly up on the court and the emperor. Let me put it this way, the imperial court is not as backbone as the eldest brother thinks, especially in the face of the threat of force.

The emperor may not be reconciled, and he wants to pick a son and turn his face if he doesn't agree. But the emperor did not have the confidence to do this, and the current situation did not allow the emperor to turn his face against us.

At present, the center of gravity of the imperial court has shifted from the north to the south. The imperial court will vigorously develop the south, ensure that taxes are increased, and the army is expanded.

Several state capitals and counties in the north were nominally under the rule of the imperial court, but in fact they were already independent.

Rather than allowing the northern territory to become a piece of scattered sand and be broken by others, it is better to give a prince and lead the military and government of the north in a proper manner. I believe that the emperor will weigh the pros and cons, and in the end he will compromise. ”

Liu Baoshun frowned, "What Lord Cui is doing is to lead the military and government in the north and gather soldiers and horses from all walks of life. There is no need for the imperial court to give another prince, it will conflict with Lord Cui's position. ”

"Lord Cui is an official sent by the imperial court, and to all the soldiers and horses in the north, he is an outsider. Over the years, can anyone obey him and be willing to listen to his orders? Master Cui's mission has ended, and it is time for the imperial court to change its strategy, and it needs a stronger figure to lead the troops and horses of all walks of life in the north. This person is none other than his father, and he is none other than Liangzhou soldiers and horses. ”

Liu Baoshun had concerns in his heart, "Openly snatched power, drove away Lord Cui, and forced the court and the emperor to compromise." Father, it's very risky. The son thinks that it should be carefully considered! ”

Liu Baoping insisted on going sideways, "Father, don't miss the opportunity and never come again." The current situation is the best time for our Liu family. Father only needs to make up his mind, and I believe that the king will be able to get it.

At that time, our Liu family will not only be able to rightfully own half of Hexi's territory, but also be able to rightfully command the military and government in the north. Father, don't hesitate, our Liu family has missed too many opportunities, and this time, we can't miss it again no matter what. Otherwise, Yan Shouzhan will put the latecomers on top and press our Liu family. ”

Liu Zhang, the assassin of Liangzhou, waved his hand to prevent the two sons from continuing to argue.

He pondered and said, "What you two brothers say makes sense. Baoshun is worried that stealing chickens will not make rice, and Baoping is worried that he will miss the opportunity and be preempted. The old man's idea was that there must be a knighthood. The Liu family has paid for several generations for the Great Wei royal family, and there is no reason why they don't even have a title. Whether it is a prince or a marquis, the old man naturally chooses the prince. ”

Liu Baoping smiled, "Father is wise! ”

Liu Baoshun sighed, "What does the father need his son to do?" ”

"Da Lang is fully armed, just in case. Bao Ping wrote a notebook for the old man to test the attitude of the court and the emperor. If the emperor is stingy and refuses to give the old man the title of prince, then the old man does not have to work hard for the Great Wei royal family! ”

"No!"

The two brothers responded in unison.

Liu Zhang, the assassin of Liangzhou, no longer concealed his ambitions.

To be a deferential loyal and good general, he has done enough, but he is tired, and he almost put his life into it, even with his family foundation.

It's time to expose a mouth full of fangs.

Just like that stinky and shameless Yan Shouzhan, how chic and presumptuous he is, the court has nothing to do with him.

He Liu Zhang has no reason to be inferior to Yan Shouzhan.

Liangzhou soldiers and horses beat Youzhou soldiers and horses, why is he Liu Zhang not as good as Yan Shouzhan?

He wants Yan to defend the war and bow down in front of him.

Please send the recital of the prince and go all the way south, I believe it will be delivered to the emperor soon.

Meanwhile......

The general was captured, and Lord Choi, who nominally commanded the military and political affairs of the north, fell ill.

He was exhausted, and years of torment had exhausted him.

He wanted to escape the north and return to the warm south.

The capture of the General's Mansion has already existed in name only, and it is impossible to mobilize a single army and horses.

He, a great general, has also become an ornament.

There is no point in staying, and it will make you angry to death.

He was so ill that he could no longer get out of bed.

He asked Shen Shuwen to resign on his behalf.

After that, he earnestly entrusted, "The old man is worth his life!" If the official document of the imperial court has not arrived, the old man will be the first to die, and you will take the old man's letter of recommendation to Jianzhou to seek a half-official position. Jianzhou has a queen mother, a Zhongshuhao and a son, and the two of them are enough to make you prosperous. ”

Shen Shuwen's face was calm, "Take care of your body, don't bother." The doctor said that adults need to recuperate. The future of the next official is left to fate. ”

Master Cui was dissatisfied, "You have a talent, and you can be regarded as a capable minister, how can you resign yourself to fate." If the old man is lucky enough to live until the official document of the imperial court transfer is delivered, if you don't dislike it, you can go down to Jianzhou with the old man!
