"I have appointed you as Taiyuan County Lieutenant and Jinyang Guard General. From now on, you will have to ask General Yuwen for advice on how to defend Jinyang City.∽↗"
"The general will obey the order."
Yuchi Xin, who had already had a premonition, responded immediately.
The Daizhou Army has few infantry generals. No matter how they are suppressed by the cavalry generals, he has actually established his position in the Daizhou Army, and it is only a matter of time before he is reused.
The only thing to worry about is that the Youzhou army is forming an army. They are just one step ahead of these Youzhou surrenderers. Moreover, the Youzhou surrender generals are closer to Luo Shixin, Liu Jingsheng and others.
Soon after, their brothers may have to face competition from Youzhou's surrendered generals.
Of course, they are not the only one in the infantry now. There is also Chen Yuan who stayed in Mayi, who is older than them and has good relations with the generals of the Daizhou Army.
He, Yu Chi, believed that he could become the Taiyuan County Captain, not only because they happened to catch up with him, but also because of his family background.
There are many big families in Jinyang City, and those who hold military power must not only be able to fight and kill, but also deal with the ethnic groups in the city. In this way, he, Yu Chixin, has done his part.
And he and Yu Wenxin were different. Yu Wenxin could compete with Qi King Li Yuanji, but he could not and would definitely be under the control of Taiyuan County Governor.
Thus, under the shade of trees outside Dacang in Jinyang, the fresh Taiyuan Commandery was born.
It's a bit like a joke, but Li Po's current status is that of the local emperor who merged two states. As long as he nods, Yu Chixin, the Taiyuan County Lieutenant, can take office immediately.
As he spoke, Li Po had actually appointed two prefects and a county lieutenant.
According to this rhythm, in Yu Wenxin's view, it would not be unusual for him to become king or even emperor sooner or later. The position of Daizhou Marching Commander can no longer meet the needs at this time.
Yu Wenxin thought about it and realized that the benefits of becoming emperor and king are obvious, but there are always disadvantages. The most important thing is the issue of justice and honor.
How to get to that step naturally... Yu Wenxin felt that he could think about it carefully after returning. If the advice can be well-founded, the credit will be in it.
Obviously, Li Po has another official fan under his command.
Afterwards, the group of people meandered towards the south of the city. The area expanded a lot and looked very conspicuous.
After an incident in Jinyang City, the flags at the top of the city were changed again. There were very few pedestrians on the streets, giving people a very deserted feeling.
But Jinyang is undoubtedly the largest city that Li Po has seen so far. Of course, it cannot be compared with later cities. It can only be a large city at the top of this era in terms of scale and population.
Its architectural style is no different from other cities in the North. The houses are not very exquisite, but they are designed to be tall and heavy.
Li Po finally had some leisure and looked around. There was no shortage of people explaining the history of Jinyang City, and he heard some anecdotes.
At this moment, Li Po thought about it and realized that, except for Yunnei City, even in Mayi, where he had stayed for a year and a half, he had not taken a good stroll.
What impressed him most was the refugee camp in Mayi City.
This feeling was so bad, Li Po couldn't help but lament, people, they don't remember clearly when they enjoy blessings in this life, but they remember more deeply when they endure hardships. How can people say this?
His mood was a little low. The people around him were all thoughtful people, so when they looked at his expression, there were fewer people talking immediately.
"I heard that the Wang family lives in the south of the city?"
Yu Wenxin replied, "Yes."
He pointed to a side road and said, "Go through here and walk a little further, and you will see Wang's wall."
Li Po turned the horse's head and said with a smile: "Wang's thousand-year-old clan, let's go and see what his family looks like. Is it worthy of the title of Chinese clan?"
Everyone followed, and Yu Wenxin felt that this person acted quite casually, but also seemed to have planned it for a long time, which was very difficult to predict.
But he still came closer and whispered: "If the manager is going to visit the Wang family, he should send someone to inform them first so that they can be prepared. The Wang family attaches great importance to etiquette. It may be inappropriate to come to the door rashly.
"
In fact, he was really afraid that this member of the Wang family would offend him.
Li Yuanji hit the Wang family, hurting both sides, and even Jinyang was lost. This time, he changed his position and was more fierce and ruthless. If one of the Wang family members continues to act coy, he is afraid that he will suffer a big loss.
Of course, he does not have any intention to protect the Wang family, but he wants to say that this is the time to rely on the Wang family, and he cannot do too much. Like Li Yuanji, who does it without hesitation, then he really has to think about it again.
Come to think of it, is it worth working for such a person?
It's no wonder that he has such worries. Everyone who is in charge of Taiyuan will not like the Wang family too much. It is too difficult to control. If you respect them, these guys are used to kicking their noses and punching them twice.
, and hurt yourself again.
How uncomfortable do you feel?
The root of the Wang family's misfortune is actually here. Anyone who comes to Jinyang must take a good look at them from head to toe.
He didn't look at Yu Wenxin at all, as if he had read through his mind.
Li Po said quietly, "Don't worry, Mr. Wang doesn't dare to offend me now. Hehe, scholars are so desperate to save face that they have reached this point. They haven't come to me to talk properly, so I just need to go and see them."
"
Yu Wenxin took a breath with a bit of toothache, and said to her heart, just know it in your mind. When you meet those old guys, you will know how disgusting and annoying these people are.
…………………………
The Wang family's house in Jinyang occupies a very large area. As soon as the wall of his house is encircled, it is not known how much space it occupies.
When he saw it, Li Po also clicked his tongue. This is simply a city within a city.
Of course, the wall of the Wang family is very high and thick, but there are no arrow towers or stairways, it is just very big.
The walls are mottled and surrounded by trees. Just by looking at it, you can already feel a vague sense of antiquity and vicissitudes of life.
After walking along the wall for a while, Li Po sighed and said: "It is said that before Jinyang existed, there was the Wang family first. To be able to take Wang as the surname is remarkable."
As he spoke, he got off his horse and led the horse slowly.
Everyone dismounted and followed. At this time, Yu Wenxin, Yu Chixin, and Xue Wanche felt a little uncomfortable.
They all thought that this young man was angry and was frightened before he even reached the door. This was a bit disappointing.
How else to put it, as a master, you must be cautious in everything you say and do, otherwise, you may not know when unexpected serious consequences will occur.
If Wen Yanbo were here, he would definitely give advice, but Yu Wenxin would not wait.
Li Po looked around casually, occasionally going up to touch the exposed bricks and twisting off some of the outer skin to have a look, feeling like he was getting addicted to archeology.
Arriving under an old tree outside the wall, Li Po finally stopped and threw the horse's reins to his servant.
He lightly patted the trunk of the old tree, turned around and said to Yu Wenxin: "This tree has been planted for hundreds of years, right?"
Yu Wenxin didn't know why, so he said casually: "Well, at least there are more than 100 years of age."
Li Po looked up at the tree crown and said with a smile: "It is a bit difficult to cut down such an old tree. It has grown for so many years, and it is a pity to knock it down. But he is here, and he prevents me from doing this."
I think it's a bit in the way for pedestrians, what should I do?"
Yu Wenxin finally understood, his eyes flickered, and he pondered for a long time before saying: "In my opinion, if you forcefully chop it down, you will inevitably leave a wooden pile behind, which will still be in the way. When it falls, it may hit the person who cut the tree. No,
If you cut off its branches and leaves and cut off its roots, it will soon collapse."
You are so cruel. Li Po rolled his eyes. He was the best at reading people's hearts. At this time, he had determined that this person was a good material for being a traitor.
If you leave it to this person, he may do it well, but if you ask him to come up with any ideas, he will only follow your wishes.
And his relationship with Li Yuanji also shows that this man has an excessive desire for power, and weaker people cannot suppress him at all.
Can such a person use it? It is best not to use it if you don’t have that confidence. If you really need to use it, this person will be very easy to use it, but you can’t let it go, otherwise disaster will arise from time to time.
Yu Wenxin didn't know that this journey was actually prepared for him. The importance he received from the Tang Dynasty's descendants was very unusual for Li Po.
Li Po smiled and was about to speak, but someone interrupted first.
Only one voice could be heard faintly, "It's so cruel to cut off the leaves and roots. This tree was planted two hundred years ago. It doesn't need much irrigation, and its branches and leaves will flourish. Pedestrians come here to take shelter from the wind and enjoy the cool weather. They fall down again and again."
The branches and leaves can also be used for heating."
"Once we cut them down, how can we dare to plant them again? Are they just for others to harvest?"
"Forefathers planted trees, and later generations took advantage of the shade. Everyone knows this. Why do wise people do the opposite?"
Her soft voice seemed to cool the summer breeze.
Everyone turned to look at the high wall almost at the same time. The voice came from within the high wall, and it was a woman. Listening to this gentle and unique voice, it was enough for people to outline a picture of a graceful lady in their hearts.
When everyone looked at the wall, a small head retracted with a swish. Then, there was a cry from inside the wall, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground mixed with a high-pitched scream.
came out.
Li Po immediately bared his teeth. The fall was not light. He told you to listen to the corner again.
Then, a whining voice said with a cry: "Er Niang, the people outside are so cruel, let's go back quickly. It's terrible for people to know that you are talking to outsiders."
Then, the thin and gentle voice appeared again, "Don't panic, it's a bit fierce, but you can still talk some sense, so you won't do the evil act of cutting down trees and demolishing houses..."
The tall and handsome men outside the wall looked at each other in confusion. Li Po suppressed a smile and thought to himself, this Wang girl can be said to be sharp-tongued, but I wonder if she knows who the people outside are for?
Cutting down trees and demolishing houses may be a matter of just one sentence.
