I believe that Xiao Huan still has some compulsions in his heart, everyone takes a step back, there is a little room for turning around, and there is no need to humiliate each other openly, isn't that good?

Those people have far-reaching intentions, and their hearts can be punished!

"Sir, don't you need to kill a group of people to make an example?"

Chen Yuankang asked suspiciously, isn't Liu Yishou's attack too soft?He didn't quite understand that the more critical the Northern Expedition was, the more ruthless he was going to deal with those people!

"Don't force these wastes too hard, write down all the things they have offended me now, and when there is another turmoil in the country, just pull out the list, charge them with the crime of collaborating with the enemy, and pull them all out to hack It’s fine, don’t think too much about it.”

Liu Yishou said thoughtfully.The current situation is hard-won, and everything must be dealt with carefully.After the Northern Expedition is over, the prestige has been established, and the hearts and minds of the people and the army have been won, then you can do what you want to do drastically.

A person who travels hundreds of miles is half to ninety, the closer to success, the more cautious you must be.

"My lord is sending troops this time, please be careful, and don't be greedy for merit." Chen Yuankang finally couldn't help talking about this matter.

Liu Yishou gestured with his fingers, wrote the word "Nanyang" on the opponent's palm, smiled without saying a word.

"I said it! I mean why the lord would choose..."

Chen Yuankang wanted to say more, but Liu Yishou waved his hand and made a silent gesture.

"Qingxu's side is a feint attack, otherwise there is no way to hide it from Gao Huan. Qingxu's soldiers are many and mixed, and they focus on attacking and defending. As for other places, the soldiers are few but fine. The water is rising, and we will quickly support it by water."

Liu Yishou said calmly.

Chen Yuankang breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a helpless smile: "My lord's move is really powerful, I hope Gao Huan won't faint from crying."

"Then who knows? Jiankang's government affairs are entrusted to you. If there are any changes, you can discuss with Yang Kan. He can be trusted. I will ask Dai Zigao to protect you personally."

"understood."

Chen Yuankang nodded slightly, but said nothing.

……

Duan Shao can ignore Gao Cheng's rampant behavior in Rencheng and cause great public outrage, but he has to tell Gao Huan the truth.Because he was the chief general appointed by Gao Huan, not Gao Cheng's lackey.It is an iron principle to eat whose food and help whom.Those who violate the principles will end up miserable.

Long before he came to Rencheng, Duan Rong gave Duan Shao an order. It was all about clarifying his position and not being led by the nose by "Little Gao Wang".

Now Duan Shao has perfectly carried out Duan Rong's confession, and sent a letter to Gao Huan's desk, explaining the whole story in detail.

It was fine if he didn't write the letter, but Gao Huan just pretended that he didn't know about it at all.

As a result, when Duan Shao's letter was opened by Gao Huan, the hero who had already started to "cherish his feathers" and tried to cover up many absurd things (such as the burning of Yongning Temple) back then was blown away!

"Zhuzi! Shuzi! He's trying to piss me off!"

In Bafu's study, Gao Huan angrily threw the paperweight to the ground.Sima Zi on the side looked at his nose, his nose, his heart and didn't speak.The last time he made his son Sima Xiao miserable, Gao Cheng really went too far this time, and Gao Huan's very sensitive "people's heart" was involved, so he couldn't persuade him anymore.

Seeing that Sima Ziru didn't come forward to persuade him, Gao Huan sat down in front of the desk, sighed and asked, "Zunye (Sima Ziru's name), what do you think of Ah Cheng? Did you go too far this time?"

"King Gao, the son is young and ignorant, please be patient with him."

Sima Ziru reluctantly persuaded.He knew that Gao Huan wouldn't listen, but he had to say similar things to persuade him not to persuade him to make peace.Otherwise, either Gao Cheng or Gao Huan, there will always be someone who will settle the score after autumn.

"Well, what do you think we should do?"

Gao Huan was too lazy to listen to these unnutritious nonsense, and directly raised the issue he was most concerned about.

Sima Ziru has known Gao Huan for many years, so he knows his temper well.Although Gao Huan is very angry now, in fact he is not very disappointed with Gao Cheng, and maybe he still has the feeling of "worthy of being the seed of Lao Tzu".

"The current plan is to let the son return to Yecheng, study behind closed doors at home, and cultivate his health and character."

Sima Ziru bowed deeply to Gao Huan and stepped aside.

In fact, this answer is what Gao Huan thinks in his heart, but he hopes that his subordinates will tell him, so as not to make people feel that he is very cold.

"In that case, please ask Zunye to go to Rencheng and bring the son back."

Gao Huan knew very well that Duan Shao, who was of the same generation, couldn't control Gao Cheng.We can only let Sima Ziru, an elder, step out, and the last time he "adverted with his concubine mother", Sima Ziru persuaded him to be kind to Gao Cheng.

"Then I will go to Rencheng and persuade the son to return to Yecheng to study."

Sima Ziru bowed deeply to Gao Huan and said, his heart was full of bitterness.

Chapter 422 Isn't life just ups and downs?

Gao Cheng headed north along the Sui River in despair, and ten days later he returned to Yecheng.After arriving in Yecheng, he honestly went back to Ba Mansion and waited for Gao Huan to come to teach him a lesson. Unexpectedly, after waiting for several days, he couldn't find Gao Huan's person!

Now Gao Cheng was completely panicked, and after asking around in the mansion, he learned that Gao Huan has been busy with military affairs recently, and has been on business in the camp outside the city.On the fifth day after his return, Gao Cheng finally returned to Gao Huan, who looked tired from the journey.

In Bafu's study, Gao Huan glanced at Gao Cheng, who was worried, and then sneered, "Have you played enough? How's the taste?"

"That taste is..." Gao Cheng almost slipped his mouth, but quickly kept silent.

"Duan Xiaoxian is young and generous, and he can entrust important affairs in the future. I wanted you to get acquainted with him more, and I didn't expect you to learn anything from Qingxu this time."

Gao Huan sighed leisurely, and seeing Gao Cheng's sincere and fearful expression, he quickly said with emotion: "It's just a woman, you can play as you like, it's no big deal."

Hearing this, Gao Cheng heaved a sigh of relief, anyway, what happened in Qingxu before has come to an end.

"Father seems to be very busy recently, what is it..."

Gao Cheng usually doesn't stick to small details, but he pays special attention to Gao Huan's emotions and the affairs of the people around him, so he also noticed Gao Huan's fatigue.

"Murong Shaozong personally led the army to attack the villages and counties. Han Gui was defeated and had already retreated to Xiangyuan. There may be fierce battles in Bingzhou and Sizhou this year. My father will lead the army soon."

Gao Huan sighed, he planned to deal with Er Zhurong this winter, but he didn't expect Er Zhurong to do it before he made a move!

People count as tigers, and tigers count as people.There is no reason for the conquest among the various forces in the north to say that others should wait until you are ready before doing it.

"Father, does that matter?"

Gao Cheng said nervously.

"Probably it's all right?"

Gao Huan said as if to comfort himself.It doesn't matter whether it matters or not, sometimes it's really two things, and it's not uncommon for Feilong to lose on the face. For example, Ge Rong back then was an example.

At this moment, Cui Jishu, who was working as an army recorder in the Overlord's Mansion, walked in, put a battle report from the front line on Gao Huan's desk, and then left the study.

"Murong Shaozong led troops to conquer Xiangyuan?"

Gao Huan thought he was wrong!

If the fight continues, all the results of the last campaign against Er Zhurong will be in vain.

"You're all right now, right? Go and call Sun Teng."

Gao Huan waved his hand wearily and said.Recently, he has been checking the situation of the formation and training of the new army outside the city, but he did not expect that the situation on the front line is worse than he thought.

"Good father."

Gao Cheng was also a little frightened, he hurriedly found Sun Teng, and when he heard the news, the other party's expression darkened as expected.

"Er Zhurong has no rations."

After thinking for a long time, Sun Teng came to such a seemingly absurd conclusion.

Gao Cheng just wanted to refute the other party, but Gao Huan also nodded and said: "This king also thinks so. Er Zhurong went south this time because of the drought and poor harvest as a last resort."

Hearing this, Gao Cheng instantly put out the thought of interrupting, and he deeply realized that his rank was far behind his father.Gao Huan could reach a consensus with Sun Teng, but he didn't realize that it was not a lack of intelligence, but a lack of practical experience.

"Although the Erzhu tribe settled in Xiurong City, they behaved like nomadic tribes. When the grassland tribes encountered natural disasters, the first way they thought of was to go south to plunder to survive. This time Erzhu Rong sent Murong Shaozong to lead troops south, but instead It means that it is difficult for Erzhu to supply supplies now, and it has to be supported by war."

As counselors, when encountering major changes, they can peel off the cocoon and find a turning point from the crisis. This is one of their jobs.There is no doubt that as the mastermind, Sun Teng is at least qualified and worthy of great responsibility, even if he is not outstanding.

"Then how do you think you're going to deal with this?"

Gao Huan asked calmly.

He often has an idea in his heart, but he has not said it all the time. He has to wait for other people to express his opinion before expressing his own opinion.

"King Gao, you can send someone to contact Hebayue in Guanzhong to discuss Er Zhurong and divide the land equally. Specifically, Hebayue gets Zhengping and Pingyang (Linfen Basin), we get Xihe, Taiyuan (Jinyang) Region) Second County."

Sun Teng has been thinking about the outline, and these drafts have been carefully deliberated.Gao Huan knew it was wonderful as soon as he heard it, and quickly clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "We lead troops to support Jinzhou, as long as we hold on to this winter, when Er Zhurong's soldiers are exhausted, He Bayue's troops will also arrive. At that time, Er Zhurong Don't care about each other, let's see what he can use to win!"

"That's right, what this subordinate thinks is exactly that!"

"Good! Good! Good! Hahahahahaha!"

Gao Huan and Sun Teng laughed together, and Gao Cheng felt that he was a superfluous person, and his brain could not keep up with the thinking of "adults".

Gao Huan was in a good mood, looked at Gao Cheng and said with a smile, "Ah Cheng, follow me to Jinzhou!"

"Good father..."

Gao Cheng was full of displeasure, but it was inconvenient to express it. He himself hated such things as leading troops into battle.

……

Wu Xinghao was reluctant to send people to Jiankang Center to "plead guilty". Before returning to Shouyang, Liu Yishou ordered Yu Jin to lead [-] troops to Yangxian City, Yixing County, north of Wuxing.It is only a hundred miles away to send troops to attack Wuxing City from here, and it can be easily reached by water in a day and a night.

This action frightened many powerful people in Wu Xing.Shen Ke hurriedly headed to Jiankang with numerous signed joint letters.Only after I went there did I know that Liu Yishou had "goed to Qingxu" to lead the Northern Expedition.

He had no choice but to chat with Chen Yuankang who stayed behind in Jiankang. Chen Yuankang just said that Shen Ke would go to Xiangyang to take up the post immediately. As for Wu Xing's matter, someone would naturally handle it.

Chen Yuankang's businesslike attitude made Shen Ke instantly understand why the other party didn't like him.

At the beginning, the imperial court's decree was to let the Sanwu area have money to contribute money but no money to contribute people.Even Kuaiji, which is the farthest away, has paid a lot of money and food.Now Wu Xing sent someone to send a letter "showing loyalty", which is really humiliating.

If Wu Xingzhi's arrogance is not punished, wouldn't Jiankang's government and military orders be like a child's play?

After Shen Ke bid farewell to Chen Yuankang and left Taicheng, he hurriedly wrote to his family, asking them to organize manpower, and send a batch of military rations to the "labor army" in Yixing County as soon as possible, and send private troops to participate in the Northern Expedition by the way!

Sure enough, after the letter was delivered, Wu Xing hurriedly gathered a batch of military rations and sent them to Yixing County. After Yu Jin received the batch of military rations, he really retreated!

For a time, counties and counties south of Jiankang, in the name of supporting the Northern Expedition, donated money and food in an endless stream.Chen Yuankang took all the money and food according to the order, and placed all the money and food in the righteous warehouse built in Danyang County to resettle the victims.

A new "Relief Department" was set up in the Shangshu Mansion, using the goods and grains of the Danyang warehouse as capital to implement low-interest loans to small farmers and self-cultivators around Jiankang, encouraging them to return to their former homes from remote places in the mountains, forests and lakes to engage in farming.

The effect was almost immediate. Due to the turmoil caused by Xiao Yan's death, the displacement around Jiankang was immediately contained. The Shangshufu issued a new order to reclaim wasteland in Jiangning, Hushu, Danyang and other places, and recruited tenants to settle in by means of farming.

Since the autumn harvest, the surrounding area of ​​Jiankang has entered a stable period, a busy scene.Bandits were rampant, and the situation of barren fields and houses did not appear as many people expected. On the contrary, it showed a "ZTE rising" style.

This situation is very similar to the "Yuanjia Reign" in the early Liu Song Dynasty.

Liu Yishou didn't know much about these things.Before he left, Jiankang's governance policies had already been arranged, and they were all discussed and discussed, and a package plan was formulated under the principle of resolving the main contradiction and making appropriate compromises.

Including letting Yu Jin lead his troops south to "properly" show force, rather than annihilate the aristocratic family with open fire, is part of the plan.

To put it simply, those people in the south of Jiankang were asked to contribute "partial money" to support the reform, while Liu Yishou strictly limited the scope of the reform to Wuhu, Jiangning, Danyang, Hushu, Jingkou, Guangling and other surrounding areas of Jiankang.Absorb victims of disasters, reclaim wasteland, borrow at low interest rates, and use the money sent by powerful families to do their own affairs.

In the plan of Liu Yishou and his ministers, the Huaihe River and Huaihe River are private plots, where drastic reforms can be carried out, whoever is unhappy can do it, and the whole family makes a list together. This is called the "blue zone" by Liu Yishou.

Jiankang and the surrounding areas of Jiankang are very wealthy but constrained by imperial power and nominal courtiers.These places only change the "economic base".Large-scale farming, attacking powerful forces, controlling the scale of the Hushu manor economy, and moving those big families out of Jiankang for various reasons.

There may be battles in these places, but those people must not be the opponents of Liu Yishou's army.There are limits to the scale and intensity of the struggle, known as the "green zone".In the green zone, Liu Yishou can strictly control the appointment of local officials, like an order.

In Sanwu and some places to the southwest of Jiankang, the aristocratic families are powerful and powerful, but they are already unlikely, and they have no intention to support the Xiao clan's rebellion.

Liu Yishou temporarily adopted a strategy of "pacifying" these forces, as long as those who contributed money to the Northern Expedition were "our own people".These places can collect taxes, but they cannot install local officials as they like. This is called the "yellow zone".

As for the Guangzhou area further south, as well as southern Jingxiang, Jiangzhou and other places, there are many vassal kings and powerful chieftains, who may rebel at any time. No matter when they are laid down, they will eventually need to send troops to conquer. "District", neither taxes nor soldiers can be obtained, so it can only be regarded as a ruled area in name.

Liu Yishou provided Chen Yuankang and others with an unusual governance idea, that is, different regions have different methods, and the states and counties of Liang State are governed by different categories, and only when conditions permit, can they forcefully promote reforms.In places where the aristocratic family is powerful and powerful, the method of "slicing sausages" is gradually promoted.

Developing the "blue zone", expanding the "green zone", stabilizing the "yellow zone" and ignoring the "red zone" are the most important things that Liu Yishou told Chen Yuankang before he left.

Under the guidance of objective and scientific governance, after a year of turmoil in the south of the Yangtze River, it finally calmed down completely.

……

In the study of Liu Mansion in Shouyang City, Liu Yishou met a guest who surprised him.

Feng Linghua of the Feng family in Changle, Lady Feng's aunt!

The night before Liu Yishou went to Jiankang last time, Mrs. Feng played shamelessly until dawn.But when she came back this time, she told Liu Yishou that she was pregnant with a second child.

Liu Yishou felt that sometimes a woman's pregnancy is a very miraculous thing.It's not that you "hard work", the harvest will be directly proportional.

He was in Jiankang recently, and he had done his best for Xiao Yuzheng. The two of them loved each other, and they were very harmonious and happy during the intercourse, but Xiao Yuzheng's stomach just didn't move.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Feng became pregnant again in just one night, which is really unreasonable.

"The last time I saw Dudu Liu, you were still alone, but now you have a lot of wives and concubines. I really can't help feeling sad."

Not counting Yuan Yuyi, who is currently pregnant and about to give birth, and Lady Feng, who is just pregnant with her second child, Liu Yishou now has three sons, five daughters, and nine wives and concubines.

If you say more, you can't compare to many people from aristocratic families whose status is far inferior to Liu Yishou, but if you say less, that's really not too little!

Facing Feng Linghua's teasing, Liu Yishou was speechless, so he had no choice but to change the subject and said, "Miss Feng misses you very much, how about staying in Shouyang?"

Feng Linghua used to come into contact with people in the court of the Northern Wei Dynasty, how could he not understand the true meaning of Liu Yishou's words?She sighed and said, "The current situation in the north is turbulent, maybe Dudu Liu can't imagine how complicated it is."

She has always called Liu Yishou "Liu Dudu" instead of "Wu Wang", but her own position is already very clear.
