Governor please stay

Chapter 192
In the spring of this year, the country of Wei was full of wars and wars.Yuan Ziyou, who was sitting in the Luoyang Palace, also had some gray hair every day, and it felt like years.

For him, the current situation in Wei State can be said to be mixed with happiness and worry, but worry is absolute and dominant; happiness is temporary and secondary.

On the frontal battlefield in Henan, Xiao Yan's puppet, former Northern Wei Beihai Wang Yuanhao, was very proud of himself.Liang Guo's Northern Expeditionary Army won successive battles, and the Wei army simply gave up all their strongholds and fled all the way to Xingyang after they were defeated and retreated.

Fei Mu, on the other hand, did not refuse anyone who came. He broke up the defeated soldiers and reorganized them, rectified military discipline, and killed many disobedient generals. The heads of Xingyang City were all hung with heads as a warning to others. .

In order to stop the Northern Expedition led by Chen Qingzhi, Yuan Ziyou paid a lot of money and gave Fei Mu great freedom, almost giving him whatever he wanted!
But that's about it.Knowing that Liang Guo's Northern Expedition was in full swing, Er Zhurong was nesting in Jinyang and didn't know what to plan. No matter how Yuan Ziyou shouted, he would turn a blind eye and listen, just as if there was no such person in the world.

However, although Er Zhurong did not move, Yuan Tianmu, who was wearing a pair of trousers with him, walked around Hebei, called up some former Ge Rongjun troops, and pulled up a rather large team. standby.

Compared with the corruption of the Henan battlefield, Qingxu's "Wei Army" fought vigorously.Yang Kan besieged Yanzhou City where Yang Dun was located, but could not attack for a long time, and Liu Yi led his troops to fight a beautiful ambush near Jinan County.

Annihilated many elites under Xing Gao's command.

For some reason, Liang Guo did not send troops to meet Yang Kan. Perhaps Xiao Yan himself did not want Yuan Hao to succeed to the throne with peace of mind.His plan, maybe, is just to let Wei Guo continue to be in chaos like this, the more chaos the better.

The news of the defeat of Xing Gao's army spread to Luoyang, and the excited Yuan Ziyou issued an imperial edict without even thinking about it, and sent someone to Licheng.

……

In the study room of the Licheng government office, Yu Jin, Wang Wei, Yu Wentai and others under Liu Yishou's command were all present, and even Cui Xiaofen, Cui Xian and others were present, and the small study room was packed to the brim.

Liu Yishou sat in front of the desk, looked at the imperial decree written on the yellow silk cloth on the table, and asked everyone doubtfully, "What does Yuan Ziyou mean?"

He handed the silk cloth to Wang Wei and winked.

"Ahem, the imperial decree says that the lord is the king of Beihai, and the fief is the same as the previous Beihai kingdom, and will not be replaced by hereditary. I won't talk about the opening of the mansion and the third division of Yitong later, and it is said that the lord can Form a private army of [-], and you can collect taxes in the territory of Beihai."

After Wang Wei finished speaking with a mocking look, everyone in the study looked at each other in blank dismay, stunned by Yuan Ziyou's coquettish operation.

Beihai Country, also known as Beihai County, is now Xing Gao's territory.The King of Beihai, or the former King of Beihai, is Yuan Hao.

In other words, Yuan Ziyou rewarded Liu Yishou with Xing Gao's territory, and by the way, he also took the title of Yuan Hao.As for forming a private army, isn't Liu Yishou's men considered a private army?This is simply superfluous.

So this imperial decree looks very generous, and it is a king or something. It seems that Liu Yishou has suddenly jumped from a salted fish in Luoyang City to a top existence in the power class of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

But in fact, Liu Yishou got nothing, and Yuan Ziyou gave nothing, even using this edict to wipe his ass would be dirty!
"If you have a different surname, you can't get a house. Yuan Ziyou's conscience is broken."

Liu Yishou sighed with emotion, then put the silk cloth on the lampstand and burned it.

"The governor fought beautifully in the last battle, and the world was shaken. Yuan Ziyou had to express something. However, most of his demonstrations here were out of anger. After all, the governor has not yet returned to Luoyang Qinwang.

Isn't Yuan Ziyou implying that no matter how much credit you make in Qingxu, I will only give you something useless? "

Yu Jin stroked the short beard on his chin, and said thoughtfully to himself, many people in the room nodded frequently when they heard this.

"Although the King of Beihai was Yuan Hao's previous title, he was deprived of it by the court after he fled to Liang. However, the governor came from a humble background, and Yuan Hao would be a little upset when he learned that the king of Beihai was appointed to the governor.

Maybe this is Yuan Ziyou planning for a rainy day, afraid that the governor will be recruited by Yuan Hao.Perhaps in Yuan Ziyou's view, in order to obtain the title of King of the North Sea and the fiefdom of the King of the North Sea, the governor must first destroy Xing Gao, and then fight Yuan Hao to the death. "

A familiar voice sounded in the room, it turned out to be the chubby Yang Min talking.

This statement is a bit wishful thinking, but considering that Yuan Ziyou has always been a wishful thinking person, maybe what Yang Min said is the true solution.

Liu Yishou waved his hands helplessly and asked, "So, for this so-called reward from the imperial court, should we accept it or not?"

In fact, it doesn't matter how Yuan Ziyou wants to play, the key is how to make good use of this edict.As for the others, that doesn't matter. The Beihai Kingdom is farther east and farther north, and it will take a lot of trouble to go there.

More importantly, once you become the "genuine" King of the North Sea, you will be on Yuan Ziyou's pirate ship.

"My lord, we can't get the land of the North Sea, and we can't control it. If we really want to be the king of the North Sea, we have to take back this land, and it depends on the court's face. It's really not a good idea."

Wang Wei shook his head, bowed his hands to Liu Yishou, and said earnestly: "My lord, don't care about those false names, the most important thing is what you can get."

Seeing Liu Yishou nod slightly, he continued: "The reorganization of Jinan County is in full swing. My lord has the title of King of the North Sea, so I can do my own business. Therefore, I believe that the title is more important than the reality, and I can accept the canonization by the court.

As for Beihai County, just put it there, whoever likes it can take it, let's not fight for it. "

Yuan Ziyou's trap cannot be exploited.Sugar-coated cannonballs, you can eat the sugar coating and return the cannonballs. This is a great idea.

"However, the governor was named the king of the North Sea. You don't know, but Yuan Ziyou also issued an imperial decree, which was issued almost at the same time as the imperial decree of the governor."

Cui Xiaofen, who has been silent all the time but always has inside information, said slowly: "Er Zhurong has also just been named King of Taiyuan."

He sighed with emotion: "Er Zhurong doesn't say anything else, but his elite soldiers and his prestige in the north of Jinyang are not at the same level as the governor.

As a result, the governor is now on the same level as Er Zhurong in terms of title. Yuan Ziyou's trick of "killing three men with two peaches" was too blatant, but it was also quite disgusting. "

Cui Xian is now just a small shrimp of the Boling Cui family, and Cui Xiaofen is the talker of a very important house of the Boling Cui family.His connections in Luoyang were incomparable to those present, including Yang Min and others.

What Cui Xiaofen said probably completed the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle, and Yuan Ziyou's thoughts were fully exposed.

"A king with a different surname cannot be granted a house. How about I change my surname to Yuan? Yuan Yishou?"

Liu Yishou asked with a smile.

Helping one hand is really a good name for kneeling and licking the emperor.Everyone in the study couldn't help laughing, and the depression caused by the imperial decree was also diluted a lot.

"Don't you think it's strange? Before Yuan Ziyou kept begging the lord to help King Qin of Luoyang, his words were sincere, almost crying. But now there is no mention of King Qin in this imperial decree, nor did he write a letter about it. .

Isn't that weird? "

A very strange voice came from the corner of the room.

Everyone turned their heads and saw a young man about Liu Yishou's age, wearing an inconspicuous cloth robe, and taking notes with a brush in his hand.He is like an invisible man, if he does not speak, he will hardly be noticed.

"This is the new clerk, Yang Xiuzhi. I picked it up on the way. The handwriting is pretty good, and he is considered hardworking."

Liu Yishou said indifferently.

But Yang Xiuzhi's ability to say that sentence just now not only shows that he is very diligent, but also has good observation skills.It is more than enough to be a clerk if you can detect this from the past correspondence archives.

"How do you say that?"

Wang Wei asked calmly.

He has much more power now than before, but he can no longer follow Liu Yishou like before.This made him quite uncomfortable. After all, Liu Yishou was a very interesting person, and he would not find it boring to communicate with wise men.

And when there are too many stupid people around, Wang Wei will lose the desire to speak, because what he says is useless, and he will not get any response.

"According to Yuan Ziyou's personality, if the governor is rewarded now, shouldn't he take the opportunity to complain? Now that he is doing this, it seems that he is afraid of the governor's strength and wants to send the governor away.

This is similar to Xiang Yu's meeting with Han Xin. "

At the most critical moment of the struggle between Chu and Han, the envoy of Xiang Yu saw Han Xin and stated his interests. He pointed out that if King Qi (Han Xin was named King of Qi) fell to King Han, then King Han would win; if he fell to King Xiang or the two would not help , Xiang Wang wins.

Yuan Ziyou issued this edict, in fact, more because he was afraid that Liu Yishou would come to Xingyang to disrupt the situation. After all, someone had a bad precedent of sneak attacking Xingyang, and Yuan Ziyou seemed to think so.

"Liang Jun, we are going to fight Wei Jun in Xingyang!"

Liu Yishou immediately wanted to understand the key to the whole matter.

Yuan Ziyou's move was not so much to instigate him to fight Yuan Hao to death, but rather to plant a thorn in Yuan Hao's heart and not accept Liu Yishou's "cooperation".

If at the critical moment of the decisive battle between Liang Jun and Wei Jun, Liu Yishou surrendered to Yuan Hao, took refuge in Liang Guo, and stabbed him severely here in Xingyang!Then, the entire Wei State is at risk of collapse.

Logically speaking, Liu Yishou has no reason to do this, but what if Yuan Hao's price is high enough?So tall that Liu Yishou couldn't refuse?

Those who have Xiang in their eyes see everyone as Xiang.Yuan Ziyou asked himself, if Yuan Hao recruited Liu Yishou, he might be really scared.

He crowned Liu Yishou king, but he just told someone Liu: You are now the prince of the Northern Wei Dynasty, you already have your own fief, and you have reached the top level!No matter how high Yuan Hao's price is, can he give you the seat of emperor?
Yuan Ziyou didn't want Liu Yishou to "rescue him", he didn't want Liu Yishou to be bought by Yuan Hao and find fault in the decisive battle!As for what will happen next, Liu Yishou recalled what happened to Er Zhurong in his previous life, and felt that it was very embarrassing.

"Forget it, it's all useless. Yang Xiuzhi wrote a letter to Yuan Ziyou and said, um, thank you for the reward from the imperial court. I should have returned to Luoyang to report my gratitude.

But Qingzhou thieves are so powerful that it will be difficult to wipe them out for a year or so, but I will definitely die here for the court until the last drop of blood is shed, um, that's all. "

Wang Wei recalled what Liu Yishou often said, "A man cheating on a woman is called molesting, a woman cheating on a man is called seduction, and a man and a woman cheating on each other is called love."The relationship between Liu Yishou and Yuan Ziyou is definitely "love".

At this moment, a soldier pushed open the door of the study and shouted loudly, "Report!"

"Read!"

Liu Yishou shouted.

The soldiers looked at the people in the room, paused and said: "Xing Gao's army came down from Gaotang to conquer Pingling, and now they are besieging Juhe City!"

Juhe City is the gateway to Dunqiu, and Dunqiu is the gateway to Licheng!This time Xing Gaojun didn't play any showy operations anymore, he just swooped over with a large army!Even if the road here is not easy to walk, even if it can't be used, but there are too many people!
The complexions of everyone in the room changed, and they all realized that Xing Gao had become ruthless this time, and planned to use blunt knives to cut flesh, to consume little by little with Liu Yishou's army, just like caterpillars eat leaves, bit by bit. This "corridor" in the east of Jinan County.

"Who is there in Juhe City?"

Liu Yishou asked curiously.

This city has long been abandoned, and now it is just a military camp. It may be more appropriate to call it a castle.

"Zhao Gui led troops to station there." Wang Wei said in a deep voice.

Dunqiu is an important town in the east of Jinan County, and it is also the only big city in the east of Licheng where you can stay.Xing Gao's army is coming aggressively. If Jinan County falls too quickly, it will be difficult for Chen Yuankang to deal with it.After all, even if Gwangju is empty, it will take some time to fully occupy it.

If Liu Yishou and the others were defeated too quickly, then Li Yuanzhong and the others led troops to attack Gwangju by surprise, not to occupy territory, but to give away their heads.

"Let's go away, everyone. According to what we said before, we will rectify the tenants in Jinan County and help them distribute their fields. Yu Wentai is in charge of the recruitment of soldiers in Jinan County. Yu Jin and I will lead the troops to Juhe City and follow them. Xing Gao's decisive battle is decided like this."

Liu Yishou arranged the next itinerary with a few quick words. After the crowd dispersed, it seemed that Wang Wei wanted to say something more. Liu Yishou waved his hand at him and said, "When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. The three armies must not avoid the battle. What should I do?" , people from all over Jinan County are seeing it, do you think I can appoint other people to fight Xing Gao's army?"

Wang Wei was speechless, Liu Yishou was right, what else could he say?
"My lord, going through all the thorns and thorns... It's too bitter."

Wang Wei said with a long sigh.Liu Yishou's current status does not depend on women's skirts, nor does it depend on family background, nor does it depend on gifts from parents.Everything he has now is achieved by relying on himself and a group of brothers under his command!

But having said that, if Liu Yishou can't do everything himself, who will be convinced by this big group of people now?

"It's better to let me go down to Li Yuanzhong's camp and urge them."

Wang Wei saluted Liu Yishou respectfully.

"No, they looked at us before, now it's our turn to look at theirs. If a war can see some people clearly, then this deal is a good deal.

You are at ease in distributing land to the tenants in Jinan County, and let them all know the government's rent collection policy.Those who have permanent property have perseverance. We are not fighting alone, understand? "

Liu Yishou patted Wang Wei on the shoulder and said.
