Rolling cavalry arrived, with a neat military appearance and banners. They slowly gathered about a mile in front of the city. They lined up solemnly and stood quietly. There was no noise in the entire formation and it exuded an impressive majesty.
Murong listened to the report expressionlessly.
"...The immortal ship flew away, and all the remaining real people were wiped out. Jizhou has basically calmed down, and Yingwu hasn't left yet."
"He's guarding me..." Murong Zheng's eyes flashed, and he stopped thinking about joining the invaders again. It was not a good idea to confront the enemy when they were victorious and their momentum was strong.
Moreover, summer is coming, and the weather is hot, and war horses are prone to diseases, plagues, and large numbers of casualties. This is not the time to use troops, and it is better to return to the relatively cold grassland as soon as possible.
Of course, the most fundamental reason is that our 20,000 blood wolf army suffered consecutive battle losses, losing 6,000 at once.
The blood wolf army is the foundation for suppressing the grassland. With such heavy losses, the grassland tribes have just surrendered. Although they are suppressed by the saints, they are ready to move again.
After thinking for a while, he looked at a person. This person was not brought down from above, but a disciple of a Western saint. At this time, he put his hands together and made a strange etiquette. He secretly sent a message and said: "Great Chanyu, this time going south, the way of heaven will be fulfilled."
I have gained some favor, your status has been established, the dragon energy has gathered and never dispersed, although you have not yet been promoted to the black dragon, the black dragon has been stabilized.
Murong Zheng's own spiritual warrior knew that what he said was true. The dragon's aura gradually became white and black, and there was a trace of light gold floating on top to cover the whole thing, but now there was a slight commotion below.
Immediately, he said to his left and right: "The casualties this time are heavy, we have to make up for it. Before we leave, we will sack the city and remember it. Don't delay too much, lest the Han soldiers catch up. From now on, there will be many opportunities every autumn."
"Yes, Da Chanyu"
Everyone was excited. With the Wolf King in this grassland, the strength of the group was different. Which tribe would dare to go deep into the Han territory and still be able to withdraw intact?
At that moment, the army attacked the city and rushed out with murderous intent.
Yizhou
Ye Qing smiled: "Your charter is good and can be said to be mature. I will leave this Yizhou to you."
After looking at the articles of association, he added: "The Han system does not have state shepherds. This is an ancestral rule, and I must not violate it. Your job is still to be an official, and you only have the power of supervision."
"However, I will temporarily give you the power of imperial envoy to control Yizhou and deal with the millions of new people in Yizhou."
Guo Jia bowed humbly and smiled: "This is really your majesty's care. How can I be a minister? But please rest assured, your majesty, within three years, counties and counties will be rebuilt. At that time, we can return to the orthodoxy and use counties and counties to govern the people."
I’m just responsible for supervision.”
"In another ten years, the population will multiply and the land will be converted back to the people."
After hearing this, Ye Qing glanced at Guo Jia and smiled: "I have confidence in you, but you are a great talent, how can you waste ten years in this place?"
"Three years as an imperial envoy and three years as a governor. If this Yizhou is stable, then you can enter the capital."
Guo Jia wanted to express his gratitude, but seeing that Ye Qing spoke firmly and there was no room for negotiation, he said nothing more and just lowered his head and said yes.
After Ye Qing said this, he remained silent for a while. The battle was won and power was unified. Although there were disturbances, it was generally settled. The next step was to cultivate and recuperate, but unlike what ordinary people think, cultivating and recuperating does not mean not using weapons. This is not possible because of choking and wasting food.
.
"Your Majesty, there is an emergency report from Youzhou." A magician suddenly reported, and Ye Qing was startled. Then he realized that the sky had turned dark before he knew it, and the muffled spring thunder filled the air with moisture.
Not far from the palace, there were green trees, which trembled in the wind from time to time. I opened the report and looked at it, and sneered: "Take a look."
Guo Jia opened it and looked at it, his expression changed slightly: "Chengqiu County is broken?"
Although Ye Qing was a little angry, his mood was different after all. His eyes shimmered, and he went out and walked along the corridor with his hands behind his back. Guo Jia had no choice but to follow, but secretly sighed in his heart.
With the Xunpandao network, things that are thousands of miles away can reach the center in only a few minutes. How can this management be compared with the old days?
Ye Qing said nothing, walked down the steps step by step, stood still, watched the wind and clouds, and said expressionlessly: "This dog is acting in such a perverse manner, it means that it is about to return to the grassland. He has no intention of fighting with me at this time."
Ye Qing said, although he felt sorry for it, he didn't take it seriously.
At this time, the prairie dragon energy had just been established and was still very weak. It was when Murong Zheng was at his weakest, and the blood wolf army had lost more than five thousand people, which had shaken the foundation. If he didn't go back, he would be attacked by the wolves in the prairie.
Although it seemed that the white pillars of the grassland rushed out, it seemed that it had become a climate, but this was covered up by the saint. Ye Qing never believed that the grassland had become a dragon in just a few months.
This is basic common sense and you don’t need to watch Qi to know it.
The heavenly power of killing Taoists from other lands is not enough to reach the sky in one step
It is a pity that the national power of the Han Dynasty has also consumed too much in the outer regions. If it continues to fight, it will shake the foundation and the gains will outweigh the losses... The most important thing is that social promotion has begun, and the Qing system is promulgated. Every year, peace will usher in new transformation and growth. Time is in my own hands.
noodle.
"Have Gongsun Zan and Gongsun Du returned to the army? Where are they?" Ye Qing suddenly asked.
Guo Jia immediately replied: "After being appointed as governors, the two of you have returned to the army or will arrive in Youzhou in a few days."
Gongsun Zan, courtesy name Boqi, was a native of Lingzhi in western Liaoning. Due to his mother's humble status, he only became a minor official in the county. His loud voice and witty eloquence attracted the attention of Governor Liu of Zhuo County, who betrothed his daughter to him. Later, he gradually became a lieutenant general.
, fought against the northern nomads with a tough attitude, fought bravely, and shocked the frontiers, without losing a good general.
Although there were cases in history of killing Liu Yu and taking the imperial envoys hostage, it is completely impossible now and it can be used.
Similarly, Gongsun Du, whose courtesy name was Shengji, was from Xiangping, Liaodong. He was a small official at first. He was promoted to Shangshulang and governor of Jizhou, and was later dismissed. In the sixth year of Zhongping, he was recommended by his fellow villager Xu Rong and was appointed as the prefect of Liaodong by Dong Zhuo. Gongsun Du arrived
After taking office, he strictly enforced severe punishments and laws, attacked the powerful forces, and made the administration smooth. Dong Zhuo was in chaos, and warlords from all over the country had no time to go east. Gongsun Du took the opportunity to establish himself as the Marquis of Liaodong and the pastor of Pingzhou. He then attacked Goguryeo in the east and Wuhuan in the west.
He took the Liaodong Peninsula in the south and crossed the sea to take the Donglai counties in the northern part of the Jiaodong Peninsula to open up territory and expand the territory. He also recruited talented people, set up schools and schools, recruited refugees and spread his influence overseas. Gongsundu's forge ahead and painstaking management made the Liaodong region
In the war years of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, peace was achieved.
Similarly, although Gongsun Du was ambitious, he was also a good general. At this time, the two of them went back to guard Youzhou. Murong was about to bite this hard nut. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible.
However, with the saint around, you still have to be on guard. Ye Qing thought for a long time and then stood up to deliver the order: "To convey my order, send General Zhang Liao to lead five thousand cavalry troops northward to warn the border counties, build forts and defend themselves, and pay attention to reconnaissance on the grassland at all times.
movement."
When someone was ordered to deliver the order, Ye Qing was silent for a moment, his face became cheerful, and he said with a faint smile: "I will send you out."
Guo Jia quickly said goodbye. By the time he left the house, he was covered in sweat.
"In this case, 20,000 Taoist soldiers will follow me back to Luoyang... The matters in Shu and Chang'an must be resolved." Ye Qing turned around to the study and spoke lightly to the newly summoned people.
This target that was deliberately left in the past really attracted many die-hards. Some local tyrants, disgraced families and Qingliu. No matter what their reasons were, they must be swept into the garbage heap of history to clear the way for the torrent of the new era.
These people didn't take it seriously. They were all Han ministers and had no good impressions of these people. They just agreed.
Ye Qing stood up and walked around, with a sneer flashing at the corner of his mouth: "Zhuge Liang, you have made great achievements in the army, and I will give you a chance. You go to Liaodong, take charge of the farming, and supervise Gongsun Du against Goguryeo."
Zhuge Liang understood in his heart and responded: "Yes"
After Ye Qing quietly listened to the report of several people, he said calmly: "To deal with these small enemies, I don't need to fight personally. When I return to Luoyang, I will choose a few generals - you said it concisely and appropriately. Very good. I'm really tired of you.
, just go down and have a rest.”
The empire does not fight every day. This is Ye Qing's national policy. Unless it is really invincible, the degree must be controlled within a certain range. Such low-intensity war is the whetstone for sharpening the army, a constant source of meritorious service, and the best weapon for generals.
fundamental
After the state affairs were discussed, the ministers retreated. After a while, Ye Qing smiled: "Long Jun, you have been waiting for a long time."
There was a flash of golden light, and Dragon Lord's clones, Jingyu and Hengyun appeared.
The Dragon Lord's clone was even more secretly surprised. He was a clone, but he was a true immortal. However, without the emperor's permission, he could not escape the light and get closer. This dragon aura was becoming more and more terrifying.
"We are going to build a water palace in the East and South China Seas." Jingyu said, a little reluctantly.
After hearing this, Ye Qing smiled. Long Jun occupies the North Sea, and the two of them occupy the East China Sea and the South China Sea. It is obvious that he has plans to pave the way for his two daughters, and Ye Qing is also happy to see this.
Then he smiled and said: "You go and build the Shuifu first. I will return to Luoyang. When Chang'an and Shu are pacified and a little more stable, I will confer upon you the Dragon King of the East Sea, the Dragon King of the South Sea, and the Dragon King of the North Sea."
"With this name, at least in Xiatu, it is justified."
Long Jun was very satisfied after hearing this. He smiled as he watched his son and daughter say goodbye. Finally he went down the steps and saw Ye Qing seeing him off, so he said something to Ye Qing.
"Don't worry about recording your merits."
Lord Long said: "The great achievements you have made will not be without rewards from above, and if you join the Qing Emperor's lineage, the Qing Emperor's lineage will definitely fight for you."
"The most important thing is Cave Heaven Yang Hua. No other state has a figure of this magnitude. Five Earth Immortals were created out of nowhere. I'm afraid they will take up half of the resources."
Ye Qing was silent for a long time and then said with a smile: "That's why I want to govern and raise the weight of it."
Saying it ten times is really scary, so I won’t say it now.
"Don't worry too much. The Heavenly Court will definitely support you in defeating all the saints. You will have to be granted the title of Heavenly Lord of Nanliandong, and you will receive corresponding resources and support - this is the Heavenly Lord."
"Tianjue was promoted to the second level in a row, directly surpassing Shaojun Kanmo. This is rare in history, but it is not uncommon. There are old precedents to follow."
"If you are a prince, you will definitely give it to me. This is what you deserve because of your strength. You will not refuse to give it."
"But you attract too much attention. I'm afraid Yingzhou won't be able to give it to you. At most, it will give you the governor of Nancang County, and the prince will be sent to govern Yingzhou."
After Ye Qing heard this, he just said: "I will only give it to the Marquis of Ying and not to the Grand Administrator of Nancang County. I will refuse it. The Heavenly Court is in charge, so I understand that the imperial court has to give it."
"Furthermore, if I am not given the power of Yingzhou, and if there is a prince to oversee the state, the name is not worthy of it anyway, so I will ask the imperial court for the position of Marquis of Han and the post of governor of Nancang County, so as not to have the name not be right, and not be constrained by the whole county.
It may even give the imperial court an opportunity to take advantage of it in the future."
Long Jun sighed after hearing this. Ye Qing really understands politics, but it's just that this clearly shows the separatism, and I'm afraid there are some hidden dangers.
Seeing Ye Qing again, he smiled: "As for opening up borders and breaking up the soil, I would rather go north. Although it is said to be a grassland, there is actually a large area of land near the mountains that can be cultivated. Only when it is five hundred miles deep is it truly a grassland. This breaks away from the imperial convention.
Already."
"Having this foundation is enough. It's nice to have the strength. Let alone the court in the future, I'm tired of being here alone and scheming with these saints."
"Do you really feel annoyed when you see me?" The emperor's daughter said with doubts and showed her figure.
"Uh...you want to go back too?"
"Where else can I go back?" The emperor glanced at him, flew into the clouds and disappeared, but it was Luoyang.
Ye Qing smiled, said nothing more, and sent Long Jun and his daughter away.
The next day, the army broke out of camp and returned to Luoyang. In the Chinese army, groups of cavalry galloped over. Under the banner of generals Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Gao, they would march westward to seize the pass and solve the Chang'an problem in advance.
.
"Guan Long is not difficult, Hanzhong is not difficult, but entering Shu is still extremely difficult." Xi Zhicai watched the army go away and deliberately sighed in front of Ye Qing.
Ye Qing knew that he was advising to take it slow and steady, so he smiled and said: "There is no rush, we must first get to Long, and then base ourselves in Hanzhong and wait and see the Shu. What is the saying that we have to get to Long to wait and see Shu?"
