The growing momentum in Hanzhong caught Liu Yan off guard.
Originally, he regarded Hanzhong as his treasure, so he calmly gathered the power of Yizhou while building up his reputation.
Who would have thought that as Hanzhong became more popular, it would appear that his previous actions were a bit high-minded and flashy.
Even many powerful people in Yizhou were shaken in their opinion of Liu Yan.
Liu Yan, who made a lot of noise but did nothing, is like an embroidered pillow compared to Su Gu, who faced adversity and faced adversity.
Liu Yan was a little dumbfounded by this change of situation.
Fortunately, Liu Yan was already a heroic figure. When he saw Su Gu being so ignorant, he immediately became serious.
He appointed Shen Mi and Lou Fa as the vanguard to rob the sword pavilion first.
Then he asked Jia Long, the governor of the state, to count the household registrations in Shu County and Guanghan and recruit soldiers. He also asked Ren Qi, the governor of Jianwei, to go out of Brazil County to threaten Hanzhong's flanks. He also summoned Dong Fu, the captain of the western vassal state, and asked Dong Fu to raise troops to respond.
There are two captains in the western vassal state. One is in Yanniu and is responsible for conquering foreign barbarians. The other is in Qingyi and is responsible for suppressing Han people.
Dong Fu is the Qingyi Captain responsible for suppressing internal strife.
After receiving the document from Liu Yan, he immediately gathered all the Qiang in Qing robes and raised troops to respond.
Liu Yan himself, accompanied by Gui Ji, went to Heming Mountain again and worshiped Zhang Lu as the governor. Although Zhang Lu laughed it off, in front of Gui Ji, he was still depressed and gave his stepfather enough face...
With Liu Yan's methodical response, the situation in central Sichuan quickly stabilized.
Liu Yan was not careless at all this time.
Not long after the two generals Shen Mi and Lou Fa set out, they asked their subordinate Sima Zhao Wei to move their Chinese army camp forward, and asked Wang Shang, who was in charge of Zhongzhong, to draft a message to attack Su Gu and rush it to Chang'an.
…
On this day, Su Gu, the prefect of Hanzhong, was sitting in the hall when he suddenly heard Zhao Song, the chief registrar, paying his respects outside.
Su Gu heard the report and quickly went down to the hall to invite people to come up.
After Zhao Songli finished speaking, he solemnly said, "Your Majesty, a secret agent from Yizhou came to report that Liu Yan was reinforcing his troops and borrowing troops from the Southern Barbarians. I'm afraid it won't be long before they attack Hanzhong County. Although Jiange is dangerous, they can only resist the enemy. For a moment, Shen Mi and Lou Fa are not easy people to deal with, so the Lord must make plans in advance."
Su Gu frowned after hearing this, and said to Zhao Song with a worried look, "Bo Gao, many refugees have entered Hanzhong recently. Now Hanzhong is busy resettling people and replenishing the counties. Although I am willing to fight, but If a fight breaks out at this time, not only will the people suffer, but we will also not have enough manpower and supplies. What should we do?"
The chaos in Luoyang benefited Hanzhong a lot.
Many common people and wealthy families have identified Hanzhong for some reason and come to join him from thousands of miles away.
This made Hanzhong County suddenly lively and prosperous.
With the common people, we can reclaim the wilderness and enrich Hanzhong's manpower and material resources.
Wherever there is a wealthy family, there will be talented people in the civil and military fields, who can deepen the heritage of Hanzhong.
But the prerequisite for all this is to properly arrange the common people and wealthy families and straighten out the relationships between superiors and subordinates. Only in this way can we provide strong support to Hanzhong County.
Hanzhong's prosperity is imminent, but it will take some time.
Su Gu was very confident that as long as these manpower and material resources were absorbed, Hanzhong County would become a large northwest county that was not inferior to Chang'an.
Zhao Song smiled slightly after hearing this, "Don't panic, Mr. Fu. I have already made some plans on this matter."
"Oh?" Su Gu asked quickly, "What can Bo Gao do?"
Zhao Song said confidently, "Although Xianguan is a Confucian scholar, he had some adventures when he was young. He learned some secret techniques of political strategists from a down-and-out old Confucian. Among them, there was one 'Chao Qin Mu Chu'
I think I am quite proficient in this method. If it is used today, it will not be difficult to solve the crisis in Hanzhong."
After hearing this, Su Gu asked dubiously, "What's so great about this secret technique that it has such wonderful effects?"
Zhao Song smiled faintly and said, "As long as Liu Yan falls into my secret method of 'Chao Qin Mu Chu', then he will definitely make a decision in the evening that is opposite to that in the morning. Although I cannot completely control this behavior,
As long as Liu Yan changes too many things morning and night, he will definitely be regarded as a fool and a fool by everyone in Yizhou. If he happens to mess up Yizhou's political and military orders, he might be able to achieve extraordinary results."
Su Gu was overjoyed when he heard this, "I often hear people say that a politician can bring chaos to a country with just one word, which is close to witchcraft. If Bo Gao has such talent, what should I worry about?"
Zhao Song was also a quick-witted person, so he immediately asked for an order, "I would also like to ask the Lord to give me an official document and ask me to go to Yizhou as an envoy. When I see Liu Yan, I will definitely gain something in a few words."
Su Gu was pleased and quickly signed the documents to send Zhao Song as an envoy to Sichuan.
…
Yu Xian and Zhang Qiying did not delay, and hurriedly and slowly returned to Heming Mountain.
This time Qiuning was the only one guarding the mountain.
The two of them already had a good relationship, and Yu Xian caught the slave ghost again this time, fully meeting the entry requirements.
Qiu Ning checked it out briefly, then smiled at Yu Xian and said, "You are originally a Taoist boy in the mountain, so it is natural for you to come back. If the two of them hadn't deliberately made things difficult last time, you might be guarding the mountain with me now.
"
After finishing speaking, Qiu Ning said comfortingly.
"Nowadays, ghosts are flourishing in the mountains. Sooner or later, you will have to find a slave ghost. It doesn't matter if you waste a few days."
Yu Xian didn't care much about this.
After going out, he not only deepened his understanding of the art of witches and ghosts, but also successfully activated the hidden properties of "Blood of Duke Zhou".
In addition, he used a favor to replace Mo Qilin who had been transformed by the devil.
No matter what, it's not a loss.
The most important thing now is to return to Chongxuanzi as soon as possible to prevent this cheap master from perishing in the Battle of Hanzhong.
At the beginning, he also promised thirty years of peace to the people of Luoyang, and all these causes and effects should also be in Hanzhong.
Yu Xian asked Qiu Ning, "When I return to the mountain this time, I don't know which Taoist priest I should go to if I want to register my name."
Qiu Ning smiled and said, "Yes, you have passed the Grand Competition, and you are the disciple recognized by Taoist Master Zhongxuanzi. Of course, you are different from the new disciples. You should go to Zheng Jijiu, who is in charge of the sect's roster."
Yu Xian quickly shook his head, "No, I've seen Zheng Jijiu in Zitong, so I'm afraid it doesn't make sense. Now I can only find my master, Chong Xuanzi, after I'm admitted."
Qiu Ning thought for a while and said, "You are of high seniority, and it's not a big deal to hang out with the new ghost soldiers. Why not go find Bai Yunzi, the great Jitou priest who stayed in the mountain, and see what plans he has
.”
Yu Xian was a disciple of Chongxuanzi, and his status was similar to that of a Taoist priest.
Yu Xian nodded repeatedly, "That's fine, as long as you can find a way to see my master, everything else is easy."
Qiu Ning was pleased and raised her hand to release a golden light.
Someone in the distance immediately responded.
After a while, a young man wearing a Taoist costume rushed up to him with a smile.
When Qiu Ning saw the man, he carefully ordered, "Feng Xiao, I'm guarding the mountain here and it's inconvenient to leave. You accompany your Uncle Yu to see Taoist Master Bai Yunzi."
The young Taoist priest in Taoist clothes heard this and looked at Yu Xian.
