"Sir, Yan Liang and Wen Chou will definitely withdraw their troops from Youzhou today, so you can sit back and relax." In the big tent, Gao Fei, who watched Yan Liang and Wen Chou leave, said happily to Liu Yu.
Liu Yudao: "Offending Yuan Shao is also a last resort. Yuan Shao is now a Taiwei, and on the surface he is loyal to the general He Jin. In fact, He Jin is just a puppet controlled by him. Yuan Shao has always suppressed the Han clan clan,
After forcing Liu Yan and Liu Biao out of the capital one after another, it’s my turn now. The capital is now more Yuan Shao’s than He Jin’s. It seems that Yuan Shao’s decision to add Jiuxi to He Jin’s
You are causing trouble behind your back. General Gao, you started talking about bringing things back to order, can you be more specific?"
After listening to Liu Yu's words, Gao Fei also roughly understood some of the situation in the capital. Coupled with his understanding of He Jin and Yuan Shao, he could basically conclude that He Jin, who had no political acumen, would become Yuan Shao's political figure in the near future.
A victim of cunning. The one who really wanted to usurp the Han Dynasty should be Yuan Shao.
"Sir, has He Jin made any big moves in the capital recently?"
Liu Yu said: "In addition to the addition of Jiuxi, there is another thing that has always been criticized in He Jin's heart, and that is Empress Dowager Dong and the Prince Xie."
"That means He Jin is very likely to kill Empress Dowager Dong and Prince Xie?"
"I'm afraid that's the case. However, I'm also very confused. Since He Jin wants to join Jiuxi, Empress Dowager Dong and the Prince Xie are not a threat to him. Why would He Jin add unnecessary trouble?"
Gao Fei thought for a while and said slowly: "There must be some conspiracy in this. It should be said to be Yuan Shao's conspiracy, but I can't guess what it is at the moment."
"Yuan Shao is indeed a powerful character. He recruited heroes from all over the world and virtuous corporals, and gathered a large number of staff under his command. Now his reputation has already surpassed that of He Jin. Even his younger brother Yuan Shu has also become famous at the same time, and each has his own
He has a large number of staff. Now the Han Dynasty is in turmoil. As a clan member of the Han Dynasty, I can't bring things right. I'm really incompetent!"
"My lord, for the current plan, we can only stabilize Youzhou first, and at the same time recruit and train troops. No matter it is He Jin or Yuan Shao, as long as someone dares to usurp the Han Dynasty and stand on its own feet, my lord will immediately lead the troops to the capital. I believe that other princes from all over the world will
The people will rise up to respond, and when the time comes, the great responsibility of expelling the powerful ministers and supporting the Han Dynasty will be shouldered by you."
Liu Yu was very distressed, but after hearing what Gao Fei said, he was cheered up and felt that what Gao Fei said was very reasonable. He immediately said loudly: "You are right. I should shoulder the responsibility of supporting the Han Dynasty. General Gao
, you are really a good general who is loyal to the king and patriotic. It is indeed a blessing for me, a big man, to have someone like you. It is a pity that I and General Gao met very late. If they had known each other a few years earlier, how could the imperial court have suffered such disaster?
What does it look like?”
Seeing that Liu Yu had great trust in him, Gao Fei immediately said: "My lord, I am just doing my duty as a minister. Now that the Wuhuan people still occupy the four counties of Youzhou, my lord should end this situation as soon as possible."
In the event of war, Wuhuan people will be recruited under his command to cultivate diligent administration internally and strong military troops externally, in anticipation of great events."
Liu Yu's heart was very surging at this time, as if he had seen the big man saved from danger by him, as if he had seen the peaceful scene after he put things right. However, he was not aware of the ambition of Gao Fei around him.
Gao Fei had his own purpose in supporting Liu Yu, whether it was political or military, and there was a certain connection. He wanted to use Liu Yu's hand to build a Youzhou and seek the greatest benefits for himself.
After Liu Yu thought for a while, he shouted loudly: "General Gao, time waits for no one. Let's enter Jicheng now. I think that with my reputation, Liu Yu, and Qiu Liju's lobbying, I can definitely make Nanlou surrender.
"
Gao Fei nodded, and he and Liu Yu stepped out of the tent together. Under the escort of Zhao Yun, Tai Shi Ci, and Xian Yufu, they left the military camp and headed toward the location of Gao Fei's soldiers and horses.
Zhang He and Qiu Liju were still resting with their troops and horses. They waited and waited but Gao Fei didn't come back, and they were very upset. When they were about to send people to find Gao Fei, they saw Gao Fei, Liu Yu, and Zhao Yun.
Taishi Ci and Xian Yufu came over on horseback. Zhang He and Qiu Liju immediately got off their horses and stepped forward to greet us: "See you, my lord!"
Gao Fei said: "Zhao Yun, Tai Shi Ci, and Zhang He, the three of you stay here and let all the soldiers and horses rest where they are. Qiu Liju, you come with me. Let's go into the city to see Nanlou."
Qiu Liju said "No" and walked to Gao Fei's side.
Gao Fei introduced Liu Yu as Qiu Liju and said slowly: "Qiu Liju, this is Mr. Liu Bo'an, the shepherd of Youzhou."
When Qiu Liju heard Liu Bo'an's name, he was startled for a moment, and then he bowed: "I'm in Xiaqiu Liju. I'm meeting Liu Shijun. I've heard about Liu Shijun for a long time, but I've never seen him before. I'm lucky enough to meet Liu Shijun today."
, it is indeed a blessing for three lifetimes.”
Liu Yu is known to everyone in Youzhou. At the same time, he is also very generous in dealing with ethnic minorities. When he served as the governor of Youzhou in his early years, he favored Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu, Goguryeo, etc.
Therefore, Qiu Liju would look very happy when he saw Liu Yu.
Gao Fei then introduced: "My lord, this is Qiu Liju, Lord Wuhuan of Liaoxi Province. Now he has repented and surrendered to the lower official, who appointed him General Yinglie."
Liu Yu smiled with satisfaction and said to Gao Fei: "General Gao has done a good job. This is how you should treat the Wuhuan people. Blindly beating and killing will only increase the hatred between the two peoples. When is the time to retaliate?"
As long as we all live in peace, there is nothing that cannot be solved."
Gao Fei said: "Thank you for your compliment, sir. It's getting late now. Let's go into the city together!"
Liu Yu nodded, turned to Xian Yufu and said: "Go and ask for the city gate to be opened, just say I'm here. I don't think Nanlou will not give me this face."
Xian Yufu said "Promise", got on his horse, spurred his horse forward, and galloped to the gate of Jicheng City.
Gao Fei, Liu Yu, and Qiu Liju slowly walked towards the gate of Ji City. When they got there, they saw corpses everywhere. Even the moat was stained red with blood. There were stains everywhere on the ground.
They were broken weapons and broken human bones, and the air was filled with the smell of blood, which made people nauseous.
As expected, Liu Yu's guess was not exceeded. As soon as Xian Yufu revealed Liu Yu's name, the Wuhuan people in the city showed great respect. After a while, the city gate opened, and a big man with a curly beard rode a horse.
Horses and people lined up to welcome him.
Liu Yu was in front, Gao Fei, and Qiu Liju followed closely behind. When the three of them came to the city gate, the man with the curly beard on horseback jumped off his horse and bowed to Liu Yu with Han courtesy: "Liu Yu."
Your Majesty has come to visit us, but I am not able to welcome you from afar, so please don’t be surprised by your Majesty Liu!"
Liu Yu said: "Master Nanlou is still as strong as ever. We have been separated for many years, but we meet again under such circumstances. It is indeed God's will."
Nanlou smiled bitterly and said: "Shijun Liu is joking. No matter when and where, as long as Shijun Liu comes to visit, Nanlou will definitely welcome Shijun Liu. I have been separated from Shijun for several years, and I don't want Shijun to be prosperous now.
Looking back on the time when I went to Baishan in person, I feel like a completely different person. I wonder how your health has been lately?"
Liu Yu said: "Time is not forgiving. I have reached the age of seventy, unlike Mr. Nanlou who is in his prime. However, my health has always been very good. I'd like to thank you for your concern. Mr. Nanlou, I'm here to help you.
Let me introduce, this is the Governor of Liaodong, General Anbei, Marquis of Xiangping Gaofei, and this is Liaoxi..."
Nanlou saw Qiu Liju at a glance and immediately interrupted Liu Yu's words and sneered: "Liu Shijun, I don't need to introduce you. I know all the people who turned into ashes."
When Qiu Liju heard what Nanlou said, he laughed and said: "Nanlou is still the same Nanlou, but it's a pity that I, Qiu Liju, am no longer the same Qiu Liju I used to be. Now I have officially surrendered to the Han Dynasty.
They are subordinates of General Gao."
Nanlou snorted coldly and said to Qiu Liju: "You old man, I didn't expect to see you here again. I don't know whether you came to the city as a Han army or as the king of Liao?
"
Qiu Liju was also in his forties. Compared with Nanlou who was in his prime, he was indeed an old man. When he heard Nanlou speak like this, he was not angry and immediately replied: "Young and vigorous boy, you can do that."
Understand, the King of Liao has gone forever, and now I am the Ying Lie General of the Han Dynasty."
Nanlou smiled and said: "I understand. Mr. Liu, General Gao, please come with me!"
Liu Yu was well aware of Nanlou's temper and also knew that there was some quarrel between Qiu Liju and Nanlou, so he didn't care and followed Nanlou into the city. Gao Fei knew nothing about Nanlou, so he heard that Nanlou
The conversation between Lou, Liu Yu and Qiu Liju gave him a little understanding of Nanlou. In order to understand Nanlou more thoroughly, he said to Qiu Liju next to him: "What kind of person is Nanlou?"
?”
Qiu Liju whispered: "In Chinese terms, it is called bohemian. He is very loyal in everything he does, and he doesn't pay much attention to etiquette. It's a pity that he was defeated by me in the Baitan area two years ago, and he has always held a grudge.
Even so, he never does anything to benefit himself at the expense of others, nor does he take advantage of others' danger, and is willing to obey my orders. But in this situation, I can no longer order him, and it is reasonable for him to be rude to me."
After listening to Qiu Liju's words, Gao Fei smiled and said: "It seems that Nanlou is also a temperamental person. In this case, it shouldn't be difficult to surrender him."
Qiu Liju nodded and continued: "I once defeated his main force, and the lord defeated me. Nanlou admires heroes. For him, the lord is a hero. After entering the city, Nanlou will definitely be right.
Please be careful if your lord changes his normal behavior."
"beware?"
"Yes, Nanlou rarely convinces others. He will definitely challenge the lord in a while. The lord must not accept his challenge. In this case, he will be on pins and needles, and it will be easy to persuade him to surrender."
Gao Fei laughed after hearing this. Judging from his contact with Qiu Liju these days, Qiu Liju does have some leadership talents. Otherwise, Nanlou, Wuyan, and Su Buyan would not be like this.
The leaders of all the tribes surrendered to him. However, Qiu Liju had a bad start and met such powerful figures as Gao Fei and Xun You. This was doomed to his failure and he would eventually become Gao Fei's subordinate.
After entering the city, Gao Fei and Qiu Liju followed Liu Yu and were led by Nan Lou to the Prefectural Mufu...
