Governor please stay

But he must guard the jade wall.

Because if you can't hold it, maybe Guanzhong can't hold it!

"Then Su will leave now. It is reported that Gao Huan has brought a large group of troops to Jinzhou. General Wei should be able to guess what Gao Huan is doing.

General, please perfect the city defense and don't stop for a moment.Gao Huan definitely didn't go after Er Zhurong. "

Su Chuo said solemnly.

Even he, a powerless counselor, understands this truth, so how could Wei Xiaokuan, who is guarding Yubi, not understand it.It's just that it's one thing to know clearly, but it's another thing to be able to hold on to it.

Wei Xiaokuan smiled wryly and said: "Mr. Su is very right, please be prepared in Guanzhong. As the saying goes, if you keep it for a long time, you will lose. You can't pin all your hopes on Yubi City. Mr. Su must persuade you when you return to Chang'an Your lord, be prepared to fight back."

He can only say this, once the war starts, Wei Xiaokuan will boost morale, so naturally He Bayue can rescue Yubi at any time.Otherwise, when the defenders were desperate, it would be rare for Kaesong to surrender.Wei Xiaokuan didn't dare to bet that this battle would really unite as one.

Once a person has no hope, he can do anything, so don't overestimate human nature.

After Su Chuo left, Wei Xiaokuan returned to the signing room to check the city defense map of Yubi City.He always felt as if he had overlooked something important, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

……

Dongzhai of Jiankang Palace is currently Xiao Huan's imperial study.Xiao Huan works here every day.Although it is for office work, in fact, it is just a casual look at what is happening inside and outside the court, and the life is very leisurely.

Xiao Huan has no ambitions, and he knows that his elbow can't twist his thigh.Liu Yishou respected him very much and did not restrict his personal freedom.At present Liang Guo is settled, Xiao Huan is too lazy to bother, and feels that the current life is still very good.

On this day, Liu Yishou finally returned to court with his army.

Qing Xu Dajie repelled the Wei army, captured more than ten thousand prisoners, and his luggage was immeasurable.This record is already good, or in other words, the current state of Liang really needs Liu Yishou to play well.

Liu Yishou didn't send troops to defeat Xu, Liang Jun kept confronting Wei Jun. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if Liu Yishou didn't support Xiao Huan, it would be a matter of minutes for the Jiankang court to reshuffle from top to bottom.

Xiao Huan naturally understands the truth that many people understand.

In Dongzhai's study room, the idlers have been screened out, Xiao Huan and Liu Yishou are sitting opposite each other on both sides of the desk drinking tea.This kind of tea does not add ginger and other things, and it tastes light and sweet. It has become popular among the rich and powerful in Jiankang.

"Uncle's expedition this time, is everything going well?"

Xiao Huan asked cautiously.

Although Liu Yishou didn't have sword shoes to go to the palace, and he didn't tend to enter the court, but most of the time he moved his energy to support his body, and a person has a certain aura according to his status.If he didn't pretend to be deliberately, Xiao Huan's palpitations would be caused by his arrogance without anger.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to be polite. It is a matter of one's duty for a humble minister to contribute to the country. Now Yu Wentai is leading troops south to Yongjia County and other places to conquer the powerful chieftains and bring these places into the national territory. Liang Kingdom will definitely get better and better in the future, Please don't worry, Your Majesty."

Liu Yishou poured tea for Xiao Huan in a very comfortable way, and there was no gap between them.

Xiao Huan breathed a sigh of relief, sometimes I really have to admire Liu Yishou's self-cultivation.He originally expected that the other party would be domineering and domineering after gaining power, and drive the Xiao clan to extinction.However, the development of things seems to be different from what I expected.

Xiao Huan felt that he was far inferior to Liu Yishou in judging others by himself.

"Uncle is really working hard."

Xiao Huan said with emotion.

"It's very hard work."

Liu Yishou also sighed, looked at Xiao Huan and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, although I don't like to speculate on others with wicked thoughts, there are some things that I really have to say."

"Uncle, please tell me."

Xiao Huan sat up straight involuntarily.

"Your Majesty's uncles are noble princes. They returned to the fief in embarrassment. Even if they changed the location of the feudal clan, their strength was still there. They have always been dissatisfied and even more dissatisfied with His Majesty.

In the future, when the country is stable, it is imperative to cut down the feudal clan. At that time, His Majesty may really have the heart to promulgate the decree to cut down the feudal clan. "

Liu Yishou told Xiao Huan an obvious fact.

When Xiao Yan was assassinated, Liang Guofan was in civil strife.The reason why the disputes in various places can be calmed down quickly is that Liu Yishou's troops are strong and powerful, and their deterrence ability is excellent.On the other hand, it was Liu Yishou who took a gentle attitude and pardoned those rebellious feudal lords.

This move is similar to Pei Gong's Feng Yong Chi.

Even the vassal king who took the lead in the rebellion could be pardoned, so how could the others be determined to rebel all the way to the black?

At the beginning, many people thought that Liu Yishou was merciful, but the subsequent development told those people: They are all tender chickens playing politics, and they are not worthy of lifting Liu Yishou's shoes.

Let the country be stable first, and then use various methods to buy time with routines, use time to promote reform, and use the opportunity of reform to absorb more power.

In fact, Liu Yishou's thinking has always been very clear, but it's just that many people can't see it at all.

Keeping those vassal kings, Xiao Huan would feel anxious, worried that one day he would be cut to death by those uncles.Xiao Huan's "knowledge of current affairs" is not because he is honest, but because the current situation forces him to do so.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Xiao Huan frowned nervously and asked, "What countermeasure does uncle have?"

"When the first emperor was in power, he promulgated many policies to equalize the land, but now they all exist in name only. Aristocratic families occupy countless lands, and they are full of food, but they are unwilling to contribute to the country.

Weichen wants to launch a new "Zhanshan Ge", first not to equalize the land, but to distribute the mountains, forests and lakes, whether they are self-cultivated farmers or tenants, can enjoy it, and pay a small amount of money to the state every year or a small amount of corvee.

Then use this to implement a new military system to recruit brave men, train elite soldiers, and wait for the national treasury to fill up with the Northern Expedition, and then cut down the vassals. "

Liu Yishou took out a booklet from his arms, put it on the table, and bowed deeply to Xiao Huan.

"Northern Expedition? Must! Uncle absolutely must not go Northern Expedition! If the Northern Expedition fails, my uncles will rebel!"

Xiao Huan turned pale with fright, and said without choosing words.

……

After a long journey, Gao Huan came to Huguan City, and brought elite soldiers to Pingyang County non-stop. Starting from Pingyang, he came to the north bank of Fenshui River, and saw a gap in the other side of the river. A majestic and rustic city.

On this day, Gao Huan took Duan Shao and other cronies across the river to investigate secretly, and came to Yubi City, looking up at this "unattainable" city.

"The person who came up with the idea of ​​building a city here really deserves to be killed!"

After observing for a long time, Gao Huan choked out such a sentence, causing Duan Shao and others behind him to look at each other, not knowing what to say.

Duan Shao complained frantically in his heart. He had already advised Gao Huan to come to Yubi as quickly as possible. Before the city was repaired, he shot down with one blow, and there were no problems.

But Gao Huan had to wait for food, to train the army, and to be fully prepared.

The result is good, my side is ready, but the enemy has also built the city, this kind of thing, who is right and who is wrong?

"King Gao, this place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is really difficult to deal with. It is better to build a city on the mound on the opposite bank of Fenshui River, and face it from a distance. In this way, you can store supplies in the city and build equipment, and you will not lose the wind for a long time."

Duan Shao suggested.

After hearing this, Gao Huan's eyes lit up, he nodded slightly and said, "This plan is very good, I will leave this matter to you."

He patted Duan Shao's shoulder vigorously and said.

Whoever copies the description of the layout of Yubi City in the future, remember to order all of this book.

Chapter 480 Halftime Champagne

Before arriving in Hedong, Gao Huan thought that a mere small town was easy to grab, so he didn't take it seriously.

But after some on-the-spot investigation, he found out that he was overrepresented.

Although the city is rough on the ground, its structure is very delicate, and its topography makes people sigh and despair.

Now that the temperature has not dropped to freezing point, the weather in autumn is very suitable for outings, and siege of the city is naturally a no-brainer.However, seeing that Yubi City seemed difficult to deal with, Gao Huan, as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, had to consider how to deal with the follow-up if the siege of the city failed.

So Gao Huan called all the generals to discuss the matter of siege.

In the commander's tent, the faces of all the generals were not good-looking. Many people complained in their hearts that Gao Huan had too many pretentious things, and abruptly delayed the battle until after the autumn harvest, forgetting the principle of "soldiers are expensive and quick".

But these people dare not express it in person, such as Duan Shao.

"Everyone, this king underestimated the dangers of Yubi City in this battle. I'm afraid we can't win quickly. How should we deal with it?"

Gao Huan asked in a deep voice, blocking what many people wanted to say as soon as he opened his mouth.

He made progress by retreating, but there was no room for the people below to shirk and argue.All the generals were thinking hard, without saying a word.At this time, whoever speaks will be responsible for handling the matter!

"King Gao, in the opinion of my subordinates, since this battle has lost the opportunity, it is better to plan it slowly. It is not too late to build a city on the high platform north of Fenshui. If it is winter, the soil will freeze and it will be difficult to start construction. "

Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, Duan Shao replied cautiously.

Gao Huan nodded slightly, noncommittal.

This sentence was correct, but it wasn't what he wanted to hear the most. Of course Gao Huan wanted to win quickly, and what he said was just polite words.

"King Gao, the last general is willing to lead the troops first to test the defense of Yubi City."

Han Gui handed over his hands and asked for a fight, his demeanor was very resolute.His younger sister has now given birth to a son for Gao Huan, named Gao Huan.Hangui is very motivated to make contributions.

"Well, a hundred years (Hangui dialect), this matter is not urgent, this king has his own opinion."

Gao Huan nodded slightly, still making an informal statement.

There were two representatives who spoke, and the other generals began to stand in line. There were a lot of people who wanted to attack the city first, and there were quite a few who chose to build the city and wait and see the situation.

Gao Huan asked all the generals to think about it when they went back, and at night he secretly came to Duan Shao's camp to discuss big plans with him.

It was Duan Shao who said before that he wanted to attack Yubi quickly, and he did it before the enemy army had repaired the city.Now he has finally come to his senses, it is too late to regret not listening to Duan Shaozhi's words.

Now Duan Shao said that the city should be built first, and then the decisive battle.At this time, Gao Huan no longer dared to take Duan Shao's words as wind.

As for Han Gui, before Gao Huan knew Lou Zhaojun, he had a very good relationship with him, and he knew everything about him.

Hangui is brave in war, but he doesn't like to use his brain to fight.Don't listen to this person's advice!

The opponent's performance in the big tent today, Gao Huan only thought that he was boosting morale.

"Xiaoxian, there were too many people before, so it is inconvenient for me to say more. What is your strategy for attacking Yubi?"

Sitting opposite Duan Shao, Gao Huan asked with a smile.

"First build a city here (that is, north of Fenshui, on the high platform opposite Yubi City), firstly to deploy control and fortify, so as to prevent He Bayue from Guanzhong from sending troops to reinforce Yubi.

The second is to hoard supplies so that the soldiers can cultivate well.

Yubi is shaped like a victor, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If this battle is unfavorable, leave a part to retreat to the newly built city, and the army can return to Jinzhou.

Once the future changes, it will not be too late to capture Yubi. "

Counting defeat before counting victory, Duan Shao has matured after several years of experience, showing his extraordinary view of the overall situation.

These words were golden and good words, but Gao Huan heard that they were boosting others' ambitions and destroying his own prestige. He felt a little unhappy, but he didn't express anything, he just nodded calmly.

Seeing Gao Huan's expression of being convinced and dissatisfied, Duan Shao continued:

"King Gao, if we can't occupy Hedong, our loss will be great, but conquering Guanzhong is not the top priority. The trouble with Yubi City is that Pingyang and other places are surrounded by He Bayue and Er Zhurong.

If you can't win at Yubi, it's not too late to ask Gao Wang to send troops to destroy Er Zhurong first, and then come back to attack this place. "

Duan Shao felt that Gao Huan was a little dazed. When Gao Huan was napping, He Bayue built a very important city, which made Gao Huan unable to bear it!Or called being madly slapped in the face.

If the superiors cannot understand their thoughts, what is the taste of living?Gao Huan definitely couldn't bear this tone.

Although Duan Shao understands this very well, he cannot support Gao Huan's nonsense.So he spoke very conservatively, even if he couldn't please Gao Huan.

War is a very objective behavior. If you do it, you can do it;It's not that you can achieve whatever effect you want. People can't speak nonsense against their conscience.

"Let's build the city first."

Gao Huan sighed, and left Duan Shao's tent with his hands behind his back, looking a little unhappy.

After Gao Huan led his troops to Yubi City and observed the terrain, he had a premonition in his heart that it was impossible to win quickly, and he did not rashly send troops to attack Yubi City, so as not to hurt morale.

So he followed Duan Shaozhi's words wholeheartedly, and chose to set up a high platform on the opposite bank of Fen River, and built a city here, facing Yubi City from afar.

Sharpening knives does not make mistakes in chopping firewood. If you don't build a nearby city where you can stay, who knows if the attack on Yubi is not going well, will you be defeated by He Bayue's army who came to help from afar?

Gao Huan believes that Duan Shao's suggestion is very reasonable. Anyway, he has been waiting for so long, so he might as well wait until the Fen River freezes in winter before starting to attack the city.At that time, it will be much more convenient to transport the siege equipment and supplies to Yubi City on the other side of the river.

As for the pessimism shown by Duan Shao, it was selectively ignored by Gao Huan.

So Gao Huan ordered Duan Shao to cross the river first, set up a camp under Yubi City, blocked the south gate of Yubi City, and prevented the soldiers in the city from going out.He also wrote a letter to Zhang Baoluo, who was guarding Pingyang, ordering him to lead troops to reinforce, and by the way, to supervise the handling of grain and grass, which were continuously transported from Pingyang to the city under construction now.

He has already decided to make a big effort here. In order to express his determination to conquer Yubi City, Gao Huan named the city he ordered to build now "Gaowang City"!

……

When the flames of war rose again in the north, Liu Yishou in the south was not idle either.A memorial of "Zhanshange" was sent to Jiankang Palace, and the unique "district inspection movement" began.

However, Liu Yishou encountered unprecedented resistance!

When Tu Duan was implemented before, no matter if it was a powerful old family, or a humble family turned wealthy because of military exploits, they all felt that it was just a power struggle.

It is impossible to carry out real land reform.Facts also proved those people's predictions. After Liu Yishou cleaned up some disobedient families, attacked some uncooperative temples, and raised enough food and grass for military use, he stopped.

But now, these people have begun to resist Liu Yishou's policies unprecedentedly. In and outside the court, except for Liu Yishou's cronies, everyone else is almost uniformly opposed.

There is no other reason, because unlike before, Liu Yishou's strategy seems to be very likely to be successfully implemented this time.

Liu Yishou seems to be a knowledgeable person at first glance, and the strategy he puts forward is striking, but you can't refute it.
