The state apparatus operates, and grain and grass manpower are allocated in order to ensure grain production.

No matter how fierce the war is outside, spring plowing and production cannot be delayed, and the occupation area is divided into fields, this series of work.

It has to be completed before the spring planting, so this New Year can only be spent in a busy way, and speaking of which, there are a few New Year's Holidays that are not passed in such a busy time.

After the arrangements were made, Zhuang Xun summoned He Heng and saw him off, which was relatively private, because this mission was originally hidden.

"Is the old lady still in good health?" The faction headed by He Heng is Huang Xi and Luo Yuecheng, and this time they are also together.

Zhuang Xun first asked about Luo Yuecheng's old mother's situation with concern and treated him as a friend.

"Thanks to Your Majesty, my body is healthy, there is no discomfort, and now I am walking the streets happily all day, and my spirit is very good."

Luo Yuecheng's expression fluttered, and there were many folds on his honest old face.

"That's good, after all, this time it's going to be hard for you again, and you still have to take care of your wives and children."

Zhuang Xun looked at Huang Xi and then said: "Lao Luo has found a daughter-in-law to have a baby, how old are the children, when will you have a happy event?" ”

"Your Majesty, after cleaning up the dogs and men in your hometown, the minister can come out of the shadows." Huang Xi's face darkened and said that he was hurt too deeply by his marriage, so he seemed to have a fear of difficulties.

"King Donghua has surrendered and has occupied Antai County, so you can send a document to arrest the dog man and woman now."

Zhuang Xun said with a smile, what was difficult to do at the beginning is now just a gesture, and the bully who bullied Huang Xi at the beginning is now just an ant.

"Your Majesty once said that if you don't return to your hometown, you will not judge them at night if you are like brocade clothes, and you will be unwilling in your heart, and when you return from this crusade against Zhao Guo, you will find them to settle down."

Huang Xi also has his own insistence, and his status can also retaliate against the pair of dog men and women through indirect means in some ways, but he wants to go back and slap his face.

"Originally, I was supposed to let you accept the surrender of King Donghua, but I didn't think it through, thinking that Huang Xi had the experience of going to Zhao State, so I recruited you."

Zhuang Xun said in an apologetic tone, this time it was his mistake, considering that he missed the idea of Huang Xi's return to his hometown, he held this breath for a long time.

"No, if it weren't for His Majesty's support, the minister would have no chance in his life to retaliate back."

Whose east wind he rubbed, Huang Xi knew that if Zhuang Xun hadn't taken him in and protected, and if Zhuang Xun hadn't climbed up step by step, he would have starved to death.

Even if he is lucky not to starve to death, he has no chance to improve himself, and naturally he has no chance to climb to his current position.

"It's an exaggeration, this time it's my fault, you come back and compensate you, this time I went to attack Zhao Guo, you wait for the non-main force, the other party has a team to come, just hold on, don't fall in love."

Zhuang Xun apologized, and explained that it was more difficult to say that it was easier to say that they could have any merits, and that they could drag some of the people who originally conquered Jingguo in Zhao State.

can't let Zhao Guo feel that he doesn't have any worries, even if Zhuang Xun doesn't unify Jizhou, it can't make him feel better.

"The ministers understand, Your Majesty, please rest assured, the other party will retreat when it sends troops, rely on the terrain fortress for defense, or retreat directly, stretch the other party's supply line, and contain the other party's energy to the east."

He Heng understood the strategic intent and assured Zhuang Xun that Zhuang Xun saw that he understood, and nodded in approval.

"If the other party mobilizes the border army, it is well-equipped, and it is a good choice to avoid war, our soldiers are not well trained, and the equipment supply is okay, father-in-law, you can help take care of it."

Referring to the training method of Zhao Guoxuanjia's army, but the time is too short, it is a semi-finished product, and the new army is mixed with new and old, and it is very difficult to bring, so Zhuang Xun repeatedly advised.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, the minister understands, when the minister is not there, please let Concubine He save her relatives and accompany her mother more."

He Heng assured Zhuang Xun, and then cared about his daughter and wife, the two people he missed the most.

"I'll accompany you then, don't worry."

Zhuang Xun smiled, and the two looked at each other tacitly, the relationship was not just Weng's son-in-law.

"But if Zhao Guo doesn't react, you can make the movement bigger, you can discuss the specifics, I won't intervene, and tell me in time if there are any difficulties, and I will find a way to solve them."

Decentralization, Zhuang Xun fully trusts a few generals, let a few people do it, he will not do it slightly, watch his generals perform.

"Thank you for your majesty's trust, you will definitely complete the existing purpose and contain part of the main force of Zhao in the east."

Speaking of this, it was like making a military order, and He Heng promised Zhuang Xun.

"Is it containment? directly hit the capital of Zhao Guoguo, robbed Zhao Guo's song and dance team, and danced for His Majesty. ”

Luo Yuecheng listened to Zhuang Xun's speech to avoid the war, and also assured that he had heard Huang Xi say that the Zhao Guo song and dance team danced beautifully, and Zhuang Xun liked to watch it.

"Hahaha......" Several people laughed, knowing that it was impossible, but they felt that Luo Yuecheng was straight and pure-minded.

"Not this time, just next time, next time, Your Majesty wants to unify the emperor of Kyushu."

Luo Yuecheng was not annoyed when he was laughed at, and he said righteously, without reflecting on his words and laughing at all.

"Idiot, Your Majesty's soldiers have all hit Jinyang City in Zhao State, so you covet those dancing girls?" Huang Xi laughed.

"That's right, it should be Mrs. Jiang or something."

Zhuang Xun joked, after all, he couldn't hit Jinyang, and in front of a few old brothers, he put down the burden of disguise and laughed very happily.

"That's right, Mrs. Jiang and Qingluan are really in Zhao Kingdom, and when you hit Zhao Kingdom, you can snatch them up if you fight Zhao Guo to help Your Majesty."

Luo Yuecheng was in a trance, and everyone laughed even more happily, and the air was full of pleasant atmosphere.

Zhuang Xun can't say that he and Mrs. Jiang already have a deep hatred, at least from Mrs. Jiang's perspective, he is no longer a good person.

"When you see Mrs. Jiang again, you can't listen to her, her interests are not with us, don't think about persuasion, do whatever you want, don't be deceived by her."

However, when it comes to Mrs. Jiang, Zhuang Xun still reminded a few people to take precautions, so as not to be deceived by poor information.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, last time she coaxed Your Majesty to go to Zhao Kingdom, our brothers knew that she was not a good person, Your Majesty rewarded her with love and a little concubine, and she would not listen to what she said."

Luo Yuecheng hurriedly spoke, assuring Zhuang Xun that he had always been so straightforward in terms of loyalty.

Huang Xi knew Zhuang inquiring about Zhao Guo's experience, and he was rescued by "Mrs. Jiang" later, so he scolded: "Come on, how to deal with it, it depends on Your Majesty's decision, what are you worried about, just listen to Your Majesty." ”

However, Zhuang Xun said not to trust Mrs. Jiang, he will be obedient, I don't know what happened between Zhuang Xun and Mrs. Jiang, anyway, it's not very good.

Luo Yuecheng wanted to talk back to Huang Xi, and the quarrel mode of the rivalry was mode, Zhuang Xun hurriedly changed the topic, so as not to start arguing again.

"This time, Jinyiwei and you exchange information, they have been buried in Zhao State in advance, but the time is too short, it should be useless, you cooperate with each other, and promote our policies to the people, especially the army is the beneficiary, let them talk more."

Zhuang Xun leaned back in his chair, mobilizing all the forces that could be mobilized, and he firmly believed that one thing, if he did something good, he would say it.

If you do good deeds without leaving a name, you must be impersonated by some bastards, and good deeds that can stand up to discussion should be vigorously promoted.

No matter how ignorant the people of Zhao are, they know that if they follow King Xia to eat enough and change clothes, they will have a mass base and will not be subject to much resistance.

This trick is particularly useful when dealing with the people of Yu and Youguo, uniting everyone who can be united, and dealing with the big family, it can be regarded as a flexible application of the dragon slaying technique from childhood to university.

"Understand, we have already known this trick, those people know that they can divide the land, and they are happy, and they will send food and eggs."

Luo Yuecheng is very comfortable with this feeling, and there is a refreshing feeling that the king is going out to fight, and the people are eating pot pulp to greet him.

"So pay attention to discipline, it's the soldier's family who didn't get the land, didn't give a reward after the war, and found out that he did wrong, and he had to be served by military law, and it wasn't the uncle who spent so much tax support."

Zhuang Xun emphasized that as an earthling, although he knows the cruelty of war, he still hopes that his soldiers can be like the army in his hometown, although he knows that it is impossible.

First of all, he himself is the emperor, the army is his, serving him, his nature is feudal, just look at the Yue family's army.

"In this regard, the soldiers trained by General Li should all understand that when they are selected, they are also selected from good families and educated."

He Heng said very easily, Zhuang Xun can give out benefits, live a relatively simple life, reduce talents without sticking to one pattern, give good treatment to officials and soldiers, do not hesitate to reward, inspect the officials, officials are less corrupt, not corrupt, and what they get is naturally a good army.

"Then I look forward to your performance, and I also hope that Zhao Guo will not annex Jingguo and Zheng Guo so quickly, we can have time to preemptively annex Chengguo and turn harassment into the main attack."

Zhuang Xun sincerely wishes, he can only wish in this matter, he feels that he is fast enough, the map is so big, he climbed to the current position like a rocket, straight up the climb, the opportunity to grasp is grasped, it is already the best situation.

It's a pity that King Jing died too early, if he could hang his life for two more years like King Yu, the situation would be very different, and this can be regarded as the destiny of Zhao Guo.

Every country has its own destiny, and Zhuang Xun can realize this sentence more and more, and the luck of the monarch blessed by the emperor will not be too bad.

Zhao is so strong, even if it is a pavilion in the air that is out of the bottom, it is also the strongest in the world, for example, they are all slave societies, why is the Shang Dynasty the most powerful, all countries are politics manipulated by aristocratic families, and Zhao is the best.

Zhao Guo also has luck far beyond other countries, and regards King Jing's life as a contest of national fortune, so Xia Guo, Jing Guo and Zheng Guo can no longer suppress Zhao Guo.

Or that the luck of the countries in the world made King Jing live until the day he died, because all countries did not want King Jing to die, and the current Zhao State was like a rainbow.

"General Li, he will be like this, if he changes his ministers, the ministers will not have the confidence to deal with Taishi Li." Comforting Zhuang Xun gave him confidence, and at the same time humbled himself.

He Heng is the type of Confucian general, the more he reads the book of war, the more he applies it, the more he finds it challenging to deal with Li Pingyuan.

I am not afraid, but Li Pingyuan is a difficult opponent to deal with, and he is indeed more reluctant to deal with Li Pingyuan than to deal with an elite team that Zhao Guo may send.

"But to be honest, General Li is dealing with her father after all, I don't care, but many people in the army have a lot of complaints about her."

When it comes to Li Ruxi, Luo Yuecheng's words have become cautious, he can't be blunt, although he is simple, but he is not stupid, the cat between Zhuang Xun and Li Ruxi is greasy, and he can understand it by following Zhuang Xun all the way.

"What micro-words?" Zhuang Xun frowned.

"It's nothing more than that I think General Li is disloyal, he knows a fart, General Li used himself as bait to cover Your Majesty When you escaped from the pursuit and search of King Qinghe, where were these people?"

Huang Xi said unhappily that he was convinced by these old people, not to mention that he had seen the scene of Li Ruxi rushing and killing in the army, and he would rise to his heartfelt admiration.

However, Zhuang Xun's subsequent expansion was too fast, and there were more new generals, and there were more people who questioned Li Ruxi, because Li Ruxi was more of an executioner to suppress the family.

The consideration of doing this in the past was that Li Ruxi was Zhuang Xun's wife, and her killing the family was equivalent to Zhuang Xun killing the family, so as not to replace it with a courtier, and someone would hold a grudge against it.

There are also some military generals who added after Zhuang Xun's expansion, Zhuang Xun accepted the surrender all the way, there was no hard battle in the follow-up, basically the enemy surrendered on his own initiative, and they generally did not see the bravery of Li Ruxi going into battle to kill the enemy, so they also questioned Li Ruxi's achievements.

"Don't say that, many people's minds are not bad, and even many people are grateful for Your Majesty's kindness, doubting General Li's loyalty, and suspecting that General Li has charmed Your Majesty."

He Heng conveyed the opinions of some people, because there are few people who have seen Li Ruxi slaughtering the family, and most of them are because of her embarrassing identity.

Zhuang Xun nodded slightly, this situation had been expected before, as long as Li Ruxi fought a few big battles and won, these voices would disappear.

Victory can suppress all the opposition, can make people follow blind obedience, but Li Ruxi's military exploits are too few, too few, it is not as good as Zhuang Xun to suppress people, because Zhuang Xun also has the merit of attacking the capital, the blade monster and the king of the ghost, and collapsing into a stacked pass.

The most worthy thing is to become a king's palace to fight more with less, which can only be said to be a small battle, and the subsequent suppression of the family rebellion cannot be said to be a large army battle.

"Are there a lot of dissenting people?" Zhuang Xun pondered and then asked.

"Many, General Li used to live in the palace for a long time, and many people felt that they were sitting in the current position by His Majesty's gift, and they didn't understand General Li's talent."

He Heng said euphemistically, triggering Zhuang Xun's contemplation.
