704 - Laughing at me again

Yes, although the sons of Xie Kun and Xie Pei are all famous figures in history.

What Xie Shang, Xie An, Xie Shi and the like.

But at this time, they are either not born or are only a few years old. Who knows what it will grow into in the future.

Because of this, Yao Yu didn't bother to pay attention to it, after all, he didn't have so much time to cultivate them, and for them, he changed his strategy against the family.

Wang Daozu's words can make him change his principles, but it doesn't mean that others can.

Thinking like this, Yao Yu yawned and said, "It's really gratifying that the three of them can get lost and return to the court. In this way, I will play the Son of Heaven, and the three will be named the Yellow Gate Squire, and I will accompany the king. Lord Zhou, send them to report to Lord Xun. โ€

Zhou Yu agreed, turned around and was about to leave, when Yao Yu suddenly thought of something: "Wait first." โ€

Zhou Yi looked back in confusion.

Yao Yu said to the Xie brothers and Wen Qiao: "It's okay, you go first, I have something to say to Lord Zhou alone." โ€

Hearing Yao Yu's words, several people glanced at each other, and finally, the Xie family brothers and Wen Qiao arched their hands and said, "Let's just wait outside." โ€

When they said this, several people were still a little embarrassed, after all, they had never been to Jiangling, so how could they know where Xun Fan lived.

Yao Yu was not polite, they wanted to wait, so let them wait.

No, when the Xie brothers and Wen Qiao went to wait outside the door, Yao Yu waved his hand at Zhou Yu.

The latter hurriedly bent over and walked to him, unusually flattering: "What do you command?" โ€

Yao Yu smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that I heard that you have a good relationship with Sima Rui." Obviously, His Majesty's order is to supervise the city of Cao. Why did you execute Sima Rui in prison? Isn't this a crime of deceit? โ€

As soon as Zhou Yi heard this, cold sweat came down.

It's not because of Yao Yu's crime of bullying the king, but that Yao Yu actually knew that he strangled Sima Rui with white silk.

For a while, Zhou Yi didn't know what to say, so he knelt down with a plop: "General, army, forgive sins, forgive sins." โ€

Yao Yu waved his hand: "Okay, I don't mean anything else, I just want to tell you to do less of this kind of thing in the future." Whatever Your Majesty explains, you just do. You are cautious, are you worthy of Your Majesty, worthy of the six counties of Jiangdong, and the people who were harmed by Sima Rui? โ€

After saying a few words, Zhou Yi's back was soaked, and he kept saying yes.

looked at Yao Yu again, stretched out his hand and slapped his mouth: "If it's okay, go down, don't delay me to coax the child." Otherwise, Sister Rou knows that I am lazy, and she will chase me with a sword again. โ€

Zhou Yi smiled awkwardly, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and bowed and left.

After Zhou Yu left, Lu Bi was still very curious, and asked Yao Yu incomprehensibly: "Lord, that Zhou Yi was disobedient, why didn't you punish him?" โ€

"Punishment? What is he punishing him for? Do you believe that my words are more useful than punishing him? โ€

Lu Bi sighed.

Yao Yu stretched his waist and said, "The third brother should be back in the afternoon." Go, let people go to the palace to inform Ning Wei, and say that his sweetheart is coming back. Don't wait for the later to say that I didn't remind her, how hurtful. โ€

Lu Bi: "Uh..."

Knowing that Yao Fan was back, Ning Wei was very happy.

No, when Yao Fan and Yao Yu met and resumed their duties, Ning Wei was still waiting beside her, never leaving Yao Fan's side.

Facing Ning Wei, Yao Fan was also a little shy.

Yao Yu was speechless: "I said, why don't I make room for you?" Do you have a good talk about lovesickness? โ€

Being teased by Yao Yu like this, Yao Fan and Ning Wei were very embarrassed.

Especially Yao Fan: "Big brother, you laugh at me again." โ€

"Look, it's a joke for you. Your life's events have been settled, and your eldest brother is happy for you. โ€

Yao Fan nodded, and then said to Yao Yu seriously: "Big brother, let's not talk about these things first, it's no problem to move, and it's no problem to go to Jiangdong to develop." But remember one thing, the Jingzhou Army is the foundation of our beginning. No matter what, you can't give up. โ€

Yao Yu nodded: "I naturally know this brother." After Mr. Suo Hong has investigated the household registration in Yangzhou and Xuzhou, I want to do a big reorganization. โ€

Yao Fan was curious: "Big reorganization? โ€

Yao Yu sighed: "Yes, originally we had 178,000 soldiers and horses in our hands, and after we came back from the Eastern Expedition, there were about 160,000. To be honest, this point of soldiers and horses guarding Jingyang and Xu Yujiao is really a bit reluctant. Therefore, after Suo Hong's side has confirmed the hukou, I plan to recruit 50,000 to 90,000 soldiers. If the people of Yangzhou and Xuzhou have a large population, they will levy more, and if it is not enough, then they will come less. In short, this crusade has emptied the money and food we have accumulated in recent years. It is impossible to think about using troops again in a short period of time. Two or three years of development is far from enough. After all, it will take a while to digest Yangzhou and Xuzhou. โ€

Yao Fan laughed: "It's good that you can think so, big brother, originally I thought that big brother would take advantage of the victory of the Eastern Expedition to recover Shuzhong." โ€

Yao Yu was dumbfounded: "Li Xiong is not Sima Rui, he is new to Hanzhong, and his strength has increased greatly." If we do it to him rashly, we may not be able to get a bargain. In addition, in the land of Yizhou, there are many mountains and rivers. Since ancient times, it has been a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If we use our current background to deal with Li Xiong, the success rate is too low. If it fails, the DPRK and China will not be able to suppress it. Even if we succeed by chance, we will be greatly damaged. When the time comes, I'm afraid that the land I just won will be given away again. โ€

Yao Fan thought so.

The two brothers talked a lot again.

During Yao Yu's expedition to the east, the north was not idle.

Under Shi Le's fierce attack, Gou Xi gradually couldn't hold on, and was captured by Shi Le for more than half of Qingzhou.

And the contradiction between Wang Jun and Liu Kun is also rising. With the help of Duan Xianbei and Wuhuan cavalry, Wang Jun killed Liu Kun.

This move, instead of stabilizing his territory and expanding his power, completely collapsed Wang Jun's basic territory.

After all, Liu Kun has been shaking the frontier for a long time and is known for his prestige.

Liu Kun's death, Wang Jun's subordinates rebelled.

He had no choice but to shift his target, and while Shile was attacking Gou Xi, he sent troops to attack Shile's Jizhou, in a vain attempt to enhance his prestige through victory.

At the beginning, Wang Jun's department was indeed victorious.

However, Shi Le, who received the news, left Gou Xi and Qingzhou, who was about to succeed, and quickly returned to the rescue of the army, and defeated Wang Jun's main force in the first battle, and took advantage of Wang Jun's hesitation. led the crowd to raid and kill Wang Jun's right-hand man, the leader of Duan Xianbei, Duan Wu Buchen.

For this reason, Duan Wu Bechen's son Duan Piyan and Duan Wenyang had a bad relationship with Wang Jun, and led Duan Xianbei to break away from Wang Jun.

At this time, Wang Jun made everyone betray his relatives, but fled back to Youzhou with thousands of cavalry in embarrassment.

However, Tuoba Yilu had already taken advantage of this time to steal Wang Jun's hometown.
