Chapter 248: Five Years Later

Yuwen Chengdu, Liu Bowen and Shen Wansan followed the housekeeper to the State Pastoral Mansion and met Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang at the door.

Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang hurriedly greeted Zhao Tong, and Zhao Tong was also very knowledgeable and responded to the two enthusiastically.

Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, looking at the few people behind Zhao Tong, also stepped forward to say hello, which can be regarded as acquaintance.

Although their faces were calm, they could not calm their hearts.

Now within Zhao Yang's forces, there is such a tacit rule.

As long as the housekeeper Zhao Tong goes to lead someone, then this person must be a great talent, and he must not be offended.

Zhao Tong took them directly to Zhao Yang's study.

Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang had no restraints, and directly found a place to sit down, but Yuwen Chengdu, Liu Bowen and Shen Wansan were a little restrained.

Zhao Tong arranged a place for them, and the maids prepared some refreshments for them.

Zhao Tong waved his hand and left the study with the maids, Zhao Yang didn't let them wait long, and soon appeared in front of them.

Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang stood up and saluted.

Yuwen Chengdu, Liu Bowen and Shen Wansan knew that this was Zhao Yang himself, and they didn't dare to lose their etiquette, so they hurriedly got up and saluted.

Zhao Yang laughed and signaled them not to be nervous, let alone polite.

After Zhao Yang sat down, he looked at Yuwen Chengdu, Liu Bowen and Shen Wansan, he directly named Shen Wansan and asked him to communicate more with Zhang Shiping.

Zhang Shiping suddenly realized and told Shen Wansan about the current situation of the Commercial Division.

After listening to this, Shen Wansan directly said the solution, and every solution was the right medicine, so that Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang couldn't find fault.

The two men immediately told Zhao Yang that they were willing to hand over the post of commercial secretary and deposed envoy.

Of course, Zhao Yang would not agree, he chose a compromise method, he set the commercial secretary to be deposed as the chief deposed envoy and two deposed envoys.

Such a setting made the three of them agree, and Zhao Yang also breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Yang looked at Yuwen Chengdu, his burly body, eight-foot height, especially those wolf-like eyes, made Zhao Yang a little frightened when he looked at it.

Sure enough, he deserved to be a popular figure.

Just by his appearance, he has a shocking majesty, the more Zhao Yang looks at it, the more satisfied he becomes, he directly canonized Yuwen Chengdu as the left commander of Qianniu Wei, and Dian Wei as the right commander.

Zhao Yang also gave the phoenix wings to Yuwen Chengdu, which made Yuwen Chengdu grateful, and his eyes have been staring at it since he walked into this study.

Zhao Yang didn't bother Yuwen Chengdu, he turned his gaze to Liu Bowen, and his heart blossomed.

In later generations, everyone was praising Zhuge Liang, but Zhao Yang didn't treat Zhuge Liang very much.

Zhuge Liang in three parts of the world, and Liu Bowen dominates the country!

At that time, Zhao Yang felt that those people's heads were funny, if Zhuge Liang was really powerful, it would be impossible for him not to follow Liu Bei when he was fighting Wu.

The fiasco in the Battle of Yiling can be said to have been indirectly caused by Zhuge Liang.

Every time Zhao Yang saw this place, he would scold Zhuge Liang for his inaction and killed many pillars of the Shu Kingdom.

"Mr. Berwyn, now that I get Mr., it's like Shang Tang getting Yi Yin, and King Wen getting Jiang Shang."

Zhao Yang came to Liu Bowen and personally served him tea.

Liu Bowen was very moved, he didn't expect that he would get such a high evaluation just after taking refuge in Zhao Yang.

Zhao Yang talked with Liu Bowen for a long time about the world's major affairs, and he asked Liu Bowen for advice.

Liu Bowen thought for a while, and was about to tell Zhao Yang.

However, Zhao Yang asked him to wait for a while, he walked out of the study, asked Zhao Tong to go to the front, and called all the military advisors under his command.

Soon Fang Xuanling, Wang Meng, Du Ruhui, Fu Zhu and Jia Xu came one after another.

Zhao Yang asked Liu Bowen to share his opinion.

Liu Bowen looked at these colleagues who came in, and he made some comments on these people in his heart, and the final result made him praise.

In his heart, he made a simple draft, and he told Zhao Yang that the development of power is a little too fast now, and there are many contradictions in it.

It's just that Zhao Yang's usual strictness suppressed those contradictions, but with the development of time, this will be an important reason for the split of forces.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they didn't know where to start.

Wang Meng and the others all recalled it seriously, but they couldn't think of what Liu Bowen meant by the contradiction.

"Mr. Berwyn, I don't know what you mean by contradiction?"

Wang Meng, as the chief military advisor under Zhao Yang, didn't even notice this.

Wang Meng's eyes looked sharply to the side, Mao Xiang felt Wang Meng's gaze, and the whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar.

Liu Bowen took out a scroll from his arms and handed it to Wang Meng.

Wang Meng hurriedly opened it, and he quickly skimmed through it, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, until finally the scroll almost fell to the ground.

Zhao Yang didn't go to see this, he directly appointed Liu Bowen to deal with the above matters with full authority, and several other military advisors and Mao Xiang were all on the side to help.

With the arrival of Liu Bowen, a storm suddenly broke out in the entire Guanzhong, and many conspiracies and tricks were shattered in the storm.

Many families with two hearts were dug up by Liu Bowen.

Zhao Yang closed his door, so that many people saw Zhao Yang's determination to clean up, of course, Liu Bowen also knew that he couldn't let the turmoil affect too much.

Zhao Yang's actions made the princes of Kanto nervous.

They also found that the spies scattered in the gate had not sent them information for a long time.

A month later, Zhao Yang suddenly issued an order for the whole army to stop all military operations and change the all-out offensive to all-round defense.

No one knew what Zhao Yang wanted to do, except for the monthly tribute to the Xuchang court, no one else received any information.

Zhao Yang didn't move, except for Cao Cao, who was still paying close attention, and the other princes gradually forgot about it.

The entire western part of Dahan has returned to its former calm.

This kind of tranquility has been maintained for five whole years, which has made Zhao Yang's strength, as if he had been reborn in Nirvana, undergo earth-shaking changes.

In the past five years, Zhao Yang vigorously managed the people's livelihood and successfully transported the remnants of millions of yellow turbans from Taihang Mountain to Liangzhou.

Zhao Yang used five years to successfully train 500,000 elites, not counting the county soldiers who defended the city.

If this number is reported, it will definitely make Yuan Shao and the others unable to sleep peacefully.

Guanzhong is peaceful, but the princes of the eastern part of the country are busy expanding their territory, and there are constant wars every year.

Tao Qian of Xuzhou, in order to please Cao Cao, did not expect to be kind and did not do a good job, and Cao Cao's father Cao Song died in Xuzhou.

Cao Cao took the opportunity to avenge his father and almost took the entire Xuzhou.

didn't admit that in the end, he was always hidden in, Lu Bu fisherman in Xiapi City, Xuzhou, and Yanzhou was still instigated by Li Ru to openly rebel against Cao Cao.

Yuan Shao in the north finally defeated Gongsun Chan and forced Gongsun Chan to burn himself on fire, and then he waved his army south and took Qingzhou.

In Jingzhou, Liu Bei sent dead soldiers, secretly poisoned Liu Biao, and constantly instigated the contradiction between Liu Biao's two sons.

Sun Jian directly sent troops to attack Jiangxia, but was unexpectedly shot to death by Jiangxia defender Huang Zu under Wuchang City.
