After hearing Tian Feng's words, Yuan Shu had nothing to say. This was a necessary step. If you want long-term peace and stability, you must not be merciful. If Qin Shihuang hadn't spared the lives of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, maybe the Qin Dynasty would not have died.
Naturally, it is impossible for him to repeat the mistakes of the First Emperor.
"My lord, do you think the mistresses will give you a little princess or a little prince this time?"
This topic was a bit heavy to talk about now, so Tian Feng directly led the topic to other places.
"Do you want them to give me a daughter or a son?"
Hearing Tian Feng mention this topic, Yuan Shu also smiled slightly and asked him back.
"From a general perspective, I naturally hope that my mistress can help you create a younger son. I believe this is not only my hope, but also the hope of all Jizhou military officials. However, I still like my daughter from the bottom of my heart, which makes the lord laugh.
"
Tian Feng is a good person. He is certainly not stupid when it comes to Yuan Shu's questions, and his answers are spot-on.
"You're the only one who's awesome, right? In fact, I also like daughters in my heart, but now I hope that the first born is a boy, because whether it's inheritance or stabilizing the general trend, I want to contribute hundreds of thousands to the Jizhou Army.
Soldiers, tens of millions of people are responsible."
He was deeply touched by Tian Feng's words. He also liked his daughter, but he knew that he urgently needed a man to inherit the foundation he had laid and stabilize the situation of the Jizhou Army.
"My lord is right, I hope my mistress can fulfill our wishes."
Tian Feng nodded. It seemed that Yuan Shu had the same view as him. He hoped that the mistresses could satisfy the wishes of the Jizhou Army.
"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for completing the first and second phases of the regional mission Youzhou Battle. One hundred thousand war horses will be rewarded. The system mall will add a white horse Yi Cong that can be redeemed, and one ton of corn essence will be rewarded."
The sudden sound of the system prompt made Yuan Shu startled. If it hadn't been for this prompt, he would have forgotten about the battle for Youzhou. Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that the entire territory of Youzhou has been taken over by Xun Chen.
Got off.
"How long have you been fighting in Youzhou?"
Yuan Shu glanced at Tian Feng and asked him directly when the Battle of Youzhou would take place.
"We have been fighting in Youzhou for more than a year, almost two years. I don't know how Youruo is doing there."
Yuan Shu abruptly mentioned the Battle of Youzhou, Tian Feng was also stunned, and he also thought of Xun Chen, who was also known as the Four Great Strategies of Jizhou with him.
"Well, I will send a telegram to Youzhou later to ask how he is doing there. If the war is not urgent, I will invite him back to watch the ceremony for my child."
Yuan Shu couldn't ask anything now, so he could only talk through his children.
"promise."
Soon Tian Feng organized a telegraph class to send a telegram to Youzhou.
"Commander, telegram from my lord."
Xun Chen had just entered Daifang, Gongsun Du was defeated and died, and Liaodong had completely returned to the embrace of the Han Dynasty. At this time, Yuan Shu's telegram was sent.
"Look at it from my perspective."
Xun Chen reached out and took the telegram and began to examine it carefully.
"Military advisor, what's the matter, my lord?"
Xu Rong came to Xun Chen and asked him.
"My lord is asking about the war in Youzhou. If it is not urgent, he invites me to return to Xindu to observe the ceremony of the young prince. You can come with me then."
Xun Chen glanced at Xu Rong, this fierce general who defected from Xiliang Dong Zhuo, fought with him in Youzhou for almost two years, and even went south to support Yuan Shu's war, which was considered a great achievement for his hard work.
"I still won't go. Although we have been fighting steadily along the way, Youzhou has been newly settled and the remnants of Gongsundu in Liaodong have not been eliminated. Military advisor, you have gone. If I leave again, I am afraid that Youzhou will be leaderless. If any disaster happens,
It’s not going to be good.”
Xu Rong knew that Xun Chen was doing it for his own good. He was originally a general who defected from Dong Zhuo. Although he had been with the Jizhou Army for a long time and had participated in some battles, he was a surrendered general after all, so he always followed the principle of concealment.
Xu Rong has always been a man of neither merit nor credit, as long as he can live a peaceful and stable life, he will be satisfied.
"Okay, what you said makes sense. Gongsundu still has the remaining forces in Xinding of Youzhou, especially in Liaodong. Someone really needs to be in charge, so let's do this and send a telegram back to the lord.
Tell him that Gongsun Du is dead and the entire territory of Youzhou has been recovered. After a few days of stability, I will personally return to Xindu to report my duties to the lord."
Xun Chen knew what Xu Rong meant, and what he said was true. Now Yan Liang is on his way back to Xindu. If he and Xu Rong leave, then if something happens to Youzhou, it will ruin Yuan Shu's great cause.
.
"promise."
Xu Rong clasped his fists at Xun Chen and immediately arranged for a telegraph team to report the news to Yuan Shu.
"My lord, Youruo has sent back the telegram."
The telegram soon reached Yuan Shu, who was heading north.
"How could he say that?"
After hearing Xun Chen's reply to the telegram, Yuan Shu knew without thinking that Youzhou must have been captured.
"My lord, Youruo said that Gongsun Du had just died in battle and led Fangjun to be captured. Now the whole territory of Youzhou has returned to the embrace of the Han Dynasty. As for the question of watching the ceremony you mentioned, Youruo said that he should wait for Youzhou to stabilize.
After that, I will return to Jizhou and report my work to you."
Tian Feng directly read the contents of the telegram to Yuan Shu.
"Okay, okay, Youruo is indeed Youruo. The war in Youzhou has ended now, which means that when Gongtai solves the problem of Jiaozhou, the Han Dynasty will be unified again."
Although Yuan Shu had known about the situation in Youzhou for a long time, he was quite excited when Tian Feng actually read out the telegram.
"Well, once Jiaozhou is resolved, the big man will be complete again. Is there anything you want to say, my lord?"
Tian Feng nodded to Yuan Shu. Since he mentioned that the Han Dynasty was about to be unified again, this was also a signal.
"Are you talking about taking the last step?"
Yuan Shu is naturally a smart man. When Tian Feng said this, he immediately understood.
"Yes, I don't know what my lord thinks."
Tian Feng stared at Yuan Shu with his eyes. He wanted to know what the other party was thinking.
"What do you think?"
Yuan Shu looked at Tian Feng's bright eyes and raised his mouth with interest.
"It depends on what my lord thinks. Do you want to be a Han minister like Huo Guang or an emperor like Gao Zu?"
Tian Feng glanced at Yuan Shu. If you ask me what I think, I will ask you what to do. But the key points should be pointed out. Whether you want to be a minister or an emperor, everything depends on you.
"I won't tell you any more. If I want to be Huo Guang, I'm afraid you guys won't agree. After all, you all sacrifice your lives and blood, regardless of your own safety, and follow me to the north and south. I know why.
It’s not just for the sake of honoring our ancestors and returning home in rich clothes, but Huo Guang obviously can’t give you what you want.
So don’t worry, I’m not a pedantic person. Once Jiaozhou is completely resolved, I will definitely take the final step.”
Yuan Shu stopped teasing Tian Feng. He never wanted to be Huo Guang from the beginning, otherwise he would not be able to let down the elite civil and military elites under his command and the countless undead who died on the way to the battle.
"Tian Feng knows."
Now that the words have been said, what else does Tian Feng have to say? As Yuan Shu said, if he is quite like Huo Guang, he will really feel sorry for the civil and military people who followed him and shed their blood. The reason why everyone follows him is because Yuan Shu has hope.
Take the final step.
Yuan Shu continued to go north, but the battle in Jiaozhou was extremely fierce. The army was invincible and invincible. Although Yulin County was not small, it was vast and sparsely populated. Ma Chao led the Xuanwei Army to capture it without any effort.
Nanhai County has already experienced a defection. Wherever Yingyang's army went, Kaicheng surrendered. The situation was excellent.
Zang Ba attacked Hepu County, which was not a large area and had a small population, and they mainly went out to sea for fishing. When they heard that the Xuzhou Army was coming to kill, those aristocratic families had already fled the Han Dynasty through ships, and without these backbone forces
According to the leader, it is only a matter of time before Hepu County is captured by the Xuzhou Army.
The only difficulty is Jiaozhi County, which was encircled and suppressed by Zhang He's Jianzhong Army. There are only four sons of the scholar family here, and only taxis are left. It is also the last hope of Jiaozhou now. Under his organization, Jiaozhi County's resistance is still very fierce.
But it was only fierce. Shi Xie was already dead, and all the hundreds of thousands of troops in Jiaozhou were defeated. Jiaozhi County could not make a difference here. The Jianzhong Army still moved south step by step. It could take as little as two months, and as long as
In half a year, the entire territory of Jiaozhou will surely be recovered.
After more than a month of traveling, Yuan Shu traveled across the entire Han Dynasty and finally returned to Jizhou and Xindu City.
"Wenji, why are you here?
Don’t I want you to have a good rest?”
Yuan Shu was checking the documents, and suddenly Cai Wenji came to him with a big belly.
"I don't miss my husband anymore, so I came to see you. If I walk around more, the delivery will be better by then."
Cai Wenji touched her belly, and a hint of motherhood shone on her face.
"Okay, no matter what you say, come and sit."
Yuan Shu quickly welcomed Cai Wenji over and asked him to sit next to him.
"Husband, you have gray hair, you are too tired."
Cai Wenji looked at Yuan Shu, who had gray hair, and couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Do people always grow old? What's more, Wenji, do you like boys or girls?"
Yuan Shu also touched Cai Wenji's belly, carefully feeling the throbbing of new life.
"Yan'er doesn't care about gender, but I still hope he is a boy."
Cai Wenji actually doesn't care about boys and girls, but in order to keep the order of elders and children, he still hopes that his child will be a boy, so as to ensure the stability of the situation to the greatest extent.
Otherwise, if he gives birth to a girl this time and someone else gives birth to a boy, then there will be a difference between legitimate concubine and concubine. Unless he does not claim to be legitimate son, being taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives may have a great impact on Yuan Shu's foundation.
"You are a smart woman. I know what you mean. In fact, boys and girls are the same. As you said, it is better to have a boy, otherwise there will be uncertain risks in the future."
Yuan Shu has never doubted Cai Wenji's IQ. For such a person, he can naturally see through the current situation. He is only one step away from reaching the ninth-five position. Everything must be taken one step at a time.
"Well, then I will definitely help your husband give birth to a big fat boy, ah."
When Cai Wenji heard Yuan Shu's words, she stood up immediately, but who expected that she got up so violently that she got pregnant.
"Send the message to the imperial doctor quickly, send the message to the imperial doctor quickly."
