76. Prepare for the decisive battle

"I have a headache..."

Li Shushi sighed while pressing his temples with his hands, trying to stimulate his tired mind with appropriate pain. Unfortunately, all his efforts were in vain when he faced the face in front of him that he could ignore just now.

It's all in vain, and what's worse, it seems that the head is becoming more uncomfortable.

What a troublesome guy.

Li Shushi sighed in his heart again.

"Li Zhoumu looks very troubled."

"It's not because of you."

"Actually, it is very simple to solve this problem. The old man has also said that loyalty has nothing to do with the two masters. Although Yuan Gong did not listen to what the old minister said, after all, the monarch and his ministers have been in harmony for ten years. I still ask Li Zhou to kill this old man to save him.

ambition.”

"What you said is really light. If you want me to bear the name of 'killing loyal people,' then stop dreaming."

"Then how does Li Zhoumu plan to treat the old man? Could it be that he plans to lock him up for the rest of his life?"

"Okay, anyway, Bingzhou has a vast territory and rich resources. I really don't lack anything for you to eat. Even if you eat delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, you will still be able to eat them."

"But the money spent on the elderly must be enough for several families to live a prosperous life."

"Yes, yes, you know that just by raising you alone, several families can become well-off. You are quite financially minded."

"You, Li Zhoumu, don't misinterpret the old words."

"Where did I misunderstand? Come on, let's do the math. First of all, to show my desire for talented people, I can't throw you into an ordinary prison. At least it should be a decent house.

, even if a house is rebuilt according to the most expensive method, the labor required can provide enough work for more than ten workers in half a year.

The salary paid to them is enough for them to support their family. If they work hard enough and the results of their work are satisfactory, I will give them a thank you gift after the house is completed, which is probably equivalent to about three months of their salary.

, whether this money is used for daily expenses or special expenses during festivals, it can help them live a better life.

You need at least ten jailers to watch over you, and you also need some people such as cooks and handymen. Of course, the cook can actually be omitted. After all, you, an old man, can't eat three meals a day, so let the nearby restaurants have more.

It doesn’t take much effort to prepare a meal. The jailers can also do the chores for them, which is considered a saving grace.

This saves unnecessary expenses. In this way, I have to pay the salaries of ten jailers. They will be included as informal employees in the yamen. However, their salaries will not be reduced due to work pressure. This job only requires them

If you work hard, you can not only keep doing it for a long time, but you can also get red envelopes during the winter festival.

If the previous job is a one-time deal, then the subsequent job will be a steady stream of work. But no matter what kind of job, they will get enough income to support their families, and their daily expenses will allow more people to earn

money, so everyone can use the money they earn to buy the goods they need

, so even if the overall wealth of society has not increased much, the people will feel a sense of prosperity. And if I put the wealth plundered from elsewhere into the cycle of wealth, instead of throwing them away in the house

If the treasury is rotten, then the people will truly feel the benefits that victory brings to them.

Although the job opportunities you can create by yourself are not many, you can't say that I am wasting money. Anyway, I will collect the money spent through various taxes such as commercial tax and head tax. You see. I also

It’s not like you don’t suffer a loss.”

"It is said that Li Zhoumu likes to look at problems like a businessman. Now it seems that what he said is true."

"So what if I look like a businessman? At least my country, Bingzhou, is now prosperous and the people are safe, and goods from all over the world are gathered in Jinyang City."

"Huh, different ways don't work together."

"Different means different. Anyway, this kind of thing never needs everyone to agree. As long as you act according to the rules I set, I have no interest in whether he likes businessmen or hates businessmen. Anyway, as long as he gets enough in my Hucao assessment

The score is good.”

Although he said this, Li Shushi couldn't help but press his temples again.

I have been chatting here for a long time, but the old man in front of me is like a stone that fell into a pit - smelly and hard, and he desperately hopes that Li Shushi can kill him, but Li Shushi is still unwilling.

In doing so, even if both Xiaoqiang and Jia Xu suggested that Li Shushi should obey the other party, even if their reasons were different, it was rare for the two people to come to such consistent conclusions, especially Xiaoqiang's expression.

It doesn't look like a fake.

It's just that Li Shushi is really unwilling to kill the person in front of him, even though he also feels that the temper of the old man in front of him is really troublesome - Tian Fang Yuanhao's bad temper even Yuan Shao, who always likes to show his magnanimity in front of others

Down

If you don't come to Taiwan, this guy who looks like Wei Zheng doesn't have Wei Zheng's political wisdom. In other words, Tian Feng, who is more of a straight-shooter than Wei Zheng, really doesn't know what euphemism is, so he naturally knows who he is.

I can't even pull it back.

I feel like Xiaoqiang with a bullish temper.

But even Xiaoqiang and Li Shushi can use a killer weapon like Su Xiaololi, but against Tian Feng, Li Shushi really has no choice.

This is also the reason why Xiaoqiang wants to kill Tian Feng - it would be better to die if he keeps the food to waste. Maybe he can add some nutrients to a tree, two flowers and three grasses, and maybe they will become better the next year.

More vibrant or something.

I just don’t know if Xiaoqiang is planning to go on a trip where “if you plant one Tian Feng in the spring, you will harvest many Tian Feng in the fall”, but Li Shushi feels that even if it can really be achieved, there will be a lot of Tian Feng whispering in his ears.

The scene was so beautiful that he really didn't dare to think about it, for fear that the next scene would be Xiaoqiang who transformed into Monkey King and smashed a bunch of Tang Monk in anger.

However, there are many people who support Li Shushi to keep Tian Feng, and he is still a very heavyweight character - it must be noted that the so-called "heavyweight" definitely does not refer to weight or anything like that. Li Shushi definitely does not want to die so young.

It is rare for Su Xiaoluoli to express her opinion on this kind of matter, so everyone naturally wants to listen. After all, if she offends Su Xiaoluoli, it will be recorded on her notepad, although she will not instigate Li Shushi to take revenge. That will definitely

It's not because Loli gave up revenge, it's just that it's more effective for her to do it herself - can you imagine what it would be like for the entire circle of Bingzhou ladies to jointly target one person? Anyway, no one intends to try it, so funny!

Xiaoqiang had already knelt down and worshiped.

But Su Xiaololi’s reason is quite interesting – “It’s better to hand over Tian Yuanhao to Duke Ju. If Duke Ju and Duke Ju can’t deal with him, it won’t be too late to kill him. Otherwise, we won’t send him to some poor mountain ravine to be the county magistrate.”

It’s considered waste utilization.”

Li Shushi has reservations about the first half. But Li Shushi still thinks that the second half of Su Xiaololi's proposal is good, but the premise is that Tian Feng can take up the post with peace of mind, instead of running away halfway or digging a hole to bury himself.

Only now did Li Shushi finally understand why Cao Cao would rather take Tian Feng, a world-renowned celebrity, as a prisoner and plan to abduct Gao Lan from Li Shushi. Unfortunately, the latter pushed Jinshan down without saying a word before Zhang Jiao's round of emotional offensive was used up.

Yuzhu, as can be seen on the battlefield, since Yan Liang, Wen and Chou were both killed in battle, the recent pressure from the local factions in Jizhou can be seen

It’s no small matter. Even the Jizhou natives who united around the two young masters fighting for inheritance have lost their former prestige and seem to be inferior to the outsiders in everything. As the Jizhou natives are the largest in the military after Yan Liang, Wen Chou.

On the top of the mountain, Gao Lan was often suppressed by those outsiders. I am afraid that even if he was not caught, he would not be easy when he returned to Jizhou.

Well, in the end, Li Shushi had no choice but to temporarily imprison the stubborn old man and take him back to Guanzhong to see what Ju Gongyu could do, but Li Shushi didn't have much hope. After all, he was from another dimension.

Although these two people are called together in history, in fact, according to historical records, they have no personal relationship.

The similarity is that they belong to the kind of decent people who disdain to form cliques. As for people, Ju Gongyu is much better than Tian Feng, but in the end he was also alienated by Yuan Shao because of his outspoken advice. The last one was because of

Yuan Shao died generously in Cao Ying, and one of them died at the hands of Yuan Shao, who became angry and embarrassed.

These two people used their lives to continue the tradition of generous and tragic people in the land of Yan and Zhao.

But apart from making people sigh and explaining Yuan Shao's failure, it has no useful purpose.

Li Shushi's life during this battle was naturally not just a troublesome Tian Feng. In addition to Gao Lan mentioned above, there were probably tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers. Li Shushi didn't have time to count the exact number of people.

Anyway, because he had a lot of people with him, and Cao Ren and others, who had the largest number of troops, were busy rescuing Cao Cao. Therefore, the number of surrendered soldiers and prisoners captured were still considerable. It can even be said that the family that gained the most that night said

indefinite.

Regarding Li Shushi's behavior of picking big peaches without much effort, Cao Cao, the black-skinned dwarf, was naturally envious and jealous, but in his current state, it was really difficult for him to cause trouble for Li Shushi - exhausted from fighting.

Then he was severely injured again

, the fact that this black-skinned dwarf did not die on the spot is enough to show that he is indeed a protagonist, and his life is at least tough enough. But at his current age, such an injury that can shake his vitality is enough to last him at least half a year.

It may take up to two or three years to recover.

What is certain is that without Li Shushi's godlike self-healing spell, Li Shushi believes that even if the black-skinned dwarf's superficial injuries are healed, he will definitely be left with very troublesome hidden diseases, even if he is ill for the rest of his life.

It's not surprising to get entangled with him.

It is not for the sake of his good friends who have been through life and death. Naturally, Li Shushi cannot volunteer and waste energy like he did with Zilong Jiang, Ziyi and the others. Being able to let his lolita leave a few recipes for rejuvenating the spirit and rejuvenating the other party is considered to be the most benevolent thing.

After all, the two of them are competing for the world in all seriousness, and they are rivals who wish the other party would make a strange move the next day.

However, it was not without reason that Li Shushi was so "generous". It was entirely because of what Cao Cao said to him after rejecting everyone that day, which made Li Shushi really embarrassed not to use something for consulting fees.

Of course, it's better not to talk too much about stuffing Cao Ren with a dozen fruits in private. After all, they are all brothers. It's just that the two armies have their own masters in front of the formation, so it's hard to talk about these personal relationships.

things on.

However, the information provided by Cao Cao is very important.

Previously, when this black-skinned dwarf was conquering Yuan Shu, he had also encountered undead souls that could not be killed no matter how hard he chopped them. It was precisely because of this sudden change that Cao Cao was almost roasted in Shouchun City. Although

The meat of the black-skinned dwarf is not only sour, but also contains a lot of toxins. But the dead with good teeth will not care about such things.

Cao Cao didn't know where these undead people came from, but based on the information Li Shushi obtained during his expedition to the northern grasslands, he could basically outline the outline of the matter. Although it was not very clear, it was still better than Cao Cao's two.

A black eye is stronger.

"In this case, we don't have time to continue to waste time. God knows whether the mastermind behind the large amount of power extracted from the undead in the north has used those powers. There may even be souls left to train a powerful army, and compared with tactics,

The grassland tribes are still very simple-minded. This time our opponents will probably be even more terrifying."

Li Shushi's words were approved by everyone, but even though he said so, the enemies in Guanzhong could not be driven away by simply driving them away. Even after so much time, the Bingzhou Army, which dispatched a large army, still did not make much progress.

.

It has to be said that although after several years of accumulation, the Bingzhou Army has not yet felt the pressure of food and grass. However, if time continues to delay, such a large army will inevitably squeeze out the use of farming time. More importantly, Li Shushi's "Guanzhong Transformation"

"The plan will also be greatly affected, and all the manpower and material resources invested in the early preparations will be in vain.

This is absolutely unacceptable for a qualified businessman.

"Is this forcing me to use my special moves?"

When Li Shushi said this, he looked confident, as if he really seemed to have mastered some treasure that could reverse the cause and effect of the world. With just a wave of his hand, he could destroy the opponent's inherent barrier, or he had a certain treasure house.

With a slight wave of his hand, countless strange and strange treasures will emerge from the void behind him. They will fall to the earth like heavy rain.

"Ah sneeze!" Saito, who was working hard in Jinyang, suddenly sneezed loudly.

"Saito, what's wrong with you? Ghosts don't seem to catch colds like ordinary people." Du En, a good friend who is inseparable from Saito, tilted his head cutely, and even had a straight stick on his head.

Mao then swayed from side to side, looking confused.

"No, it must be that fake, or that bastard who wants to use me to do bad things!" Although the blond girl has a delicate face like a doll, her twisted expression and scarlet eyes ruined the original beauty.

It feels a bit more crazy. But in the eyes of the green-haired girl beside me, this look is also very cute.

It's like a Chinese garden dog that is very independent and extremely humane.

Of course, Li Shushi, who thought he had said something cool, was ignored by everyone. Only Su Xiaoluoli looked at Li Shushi with a half-smiling expression, but she finally did not laugh at Li Shushi. It was like a tolerant mother looking at naughty things.

Like my son, not only did he not complain about his child's naughty, but he tolerated his child's mischief with a gentle smile.

Hey, hey, even if Li Shushi is often more handsome than three seconds, there is no need to treat him with such an attitude of not giving up on treatment.

Obviously Xiaoqiang needs treatment more than him.

"We have given up on the idea of ​​treating Blattida insects, but sir, you can still save them."

——You are ruthless enough to use this sentence as a last-ditch attack on Su Xiaololi.

However, no one had any objection to Li Shushi's idea of ​​ending the Guanzhong War as soon as possible. Not only because the Guanzhong War had consumed too much of the Bingzhou Army's military reserves, but also delayed the Bingzhou Army's series of war preparation plans, and more importantly,

Now that Yuan Shao was defeated, the Bingzhou army continued to withdraw from the war in Guanzhong and devoted itself to the war against Jizhou.

Regardless of whether Yuan Shao is dead or alive, the defeat in this battle is a huge blow to Jizhou. Cao Cao's army has not completely lost its combat effectiveness, and even has a lot of surplus strength to some extent.

, if Li Shushi doesn't act quickly, then Cao Cao will never mind occupying the vast and fertile land including Jizhou and Qingzhou.

If Cao Cao's army becomes a vast territory, including almost the entire Hebei Plain, then the other party will easily be able to accumulate enough strength. Not to mention fighting against the terrible enemies hidden behind the scenes, even if they end up in the north

It is not completely impossible for two regimes to confront each other between the East and the West.

Don't think that just because Cao Cao told him his concerns about the southeast and once again reiterated the strategic cooperative relationship between the two parties, he will really give up his determination to unify the world by himself. Perhaps now because he has just suffered a heavy blow, coupled with the fact that

Feeling the huge threat from the outside world, he maintained his goodwill towards the Bingzhou Army, but whether this goodwill will be maintained as his own strength expands, not to mention Li Shushi and everyone in the Bingzhou Army, not even Cao Cao himself can guarantee

.

——I’m sure that’s just telling lies.

Not only to ensure the interests of our own forces, but also so that everyone can deal with that terrible disaster with peace of mind, the Bingzhou Army must at least obtain sufficient benefits from the next attack on Jizhou.

But, how should they get out of the quagmire in Guanzhong? (To be continued...)
