Governor please stay

Chapter 323 Counting Merry Characters, Looking at the Present
On the wall of the study in Liu Yishou's mansion, there is a very detailed map, covering Lianghuai, Sanwu, Henan, Qingxu and other places in the north, including Jiankang.This was compiled and summarized by Yang Min's organization from various captured official maps of the Northern Wei and Nanliang.

And many places above have been circled and commented.

At this moment, Liu Yishou was standing in front of the big map, pacing back and forth.And Chen Yuankang was like an invisible person behind him, neither speaking nor doing other things.

"Chang You, what do you think Gao Huan will do when we win Xiapi County and Donghai County this time?"

Liu Yishou asked with his back to Chen Yuankang.

To be honest, Chen Yuankang is too familiar with those people in Hebei. On these issues, his views will be much more accurate than that of Wang Wei, who came from a poor family.

"Qingxu is the flank of Hebei. Since ancient times, the line of Qingxu has been fought from south to north. It has a good record. Huanwen went through this line in the Northern Expedition. Liu Jinu (Liu Yu) fought all the way to Luoyang Gao Huan doesn't say anything, he still has capable people under his command.

Hehe, how could Gao Huan tolerate Liang Guo nibbling Qingxu? "

Chen Yuankang said with a sneer.

The forces of the Qingxu family suffered heavy losses in the late Northern Wei Dynasty. Those who went away died, first Xing Gao, then Liu Yishou, and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court.

Qingxu has now left a large power vacuum, and those people in Hebei may have been coveting there for a long time, and they are worried that they can't find an excuse to send troops!
"Then do you think we can conquer these two counties?"

Liu Yishou was still looking at the map, with his back to Chen Yuankang.

"If you just fight but don't defend, it's really easy." Chen Yuankang said indifferently.

Such a thing seemed to him like going to a widow's house for the night.It couldn't be easier to get a night's sleep, and now he can even do it without spending money.

But to marry a widow home, the difficulty increases exponentially!
So in Chen Yuankang's view, it is not difficult at all to take down only these two counties.

"If Gao Huan sends troops to attack, do you think Liang Jun can hold it?"

Liu Yishou's eyes seemed to be fixed on a certain point on the map, and he was still talking with his back turned.Chen Yuankang understood that the other party already had an idea in mind and just wanted to hear other ideas.

"In the Liang Guofang township system, the governor guards one side and commands the military forces of each state. Generally, the number of troops that can be commanded is between [-] and [-]. Xiahou Kui, who is the commander of the military forces of the seven states, was taken away by Xiao Yan. It is enough to see that Xiao Yan is actually consciously controlling the size of General Fangzhen's leadership.

Several large square towns, including Shudi, Jingxiang, Jiangzhou, Lianghuai, Sanwu, Guangzhou and other places.There is no doubt that we are now the absolute main force in Lianghuaifang Town. "

The so-called counselors, of course, should pay attention to big things, instead of staring at those trivial things all day long.Now Liu Yishou left all those chores to Yang Xiuzhi.Chen Yuankang and others have long been liberated and can study the general trend of the world.

"well said!"

Liu Yishou turned around and clapped his hands.

There is a nursery rhyme in the history books of previous lives that said: "Three Cuisines and two Zhangs are not as good as one Kang", Liu Yishou has now realized that the real great talent is to build a strategic plan from a high place and see far and deep.In the case of not having a golden finger, he is the kind of person who climbs high and looks far.

"I thought that in order to regain the glory of the ancestral land, Xiao Yan must choose a clan, most likely the prince led the troops. After we captured Donghai County and Xiapi County, they sent troops from the flanks, took back Lanling County, and picked peaches."

Where are the flanks?Beihai County of Liang State.

Liu Yishou was not familiar with the name, but he knew where it was.In the previous life, that place was called Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province!

"My lord understands Xiao Yan really deep down. I also think that those Xiao clans will break their heads in order to compete for this expedition."

"Then what do you think, this time, which prince will go out to take command, and which general will assist him?"

Liu Yishou looked at Chen Yuankang with burning eyes and asked.

After going around for a long time, I finally got to the point.

"My lord asked me to collect information about Xiao Yan's sons, and after my research, I got something. This time, the fifth prince Xiao Xu and the sixth prince Xiao Lun may compete for this spot, but Xiao Yan will definitely not give it to them.

As for the reason, the lord should know best when he was in Leyou Garden that day. "

Liu Yishou nodded slightly, Chen Yuankang was very correct, these two people probably belonged to the ranks of "rebellious sons" in Xiao Yan's heart now.

"The seventh son, Xiao Yi, has powerful subordinates and is deeply afraid of Xiao Yan. If he participates in the battle to regain the ancestral land, if he succeeds, he will gain great prestige. I think that Xiao Yan may have to change the crown prince at that time."

It is impossible to change the prince, but Liu Yishou feels that Xiao Yan will definitely not give Xiao Yi the task of being in command.

"Among all the disciples, the eighth son Xiao Ji is the most favored, and he has a very good reputation in Jiankang. Regardless of whether this is pretending or not, in fact, Xiao Yan is probably already cultivating him as a prince."

Chen Yuankang said calmly.

Liu Yishou was shocked. He knew the answer because he had seen the result.However, Chen Yuankang was able to deduce so many things through a little bit of clues, and he was indeed quite capable.

"After Xiao Tong's death, the ideal prince is no longer here. Xiao Yan actually didn't like Xiao Gang as the prince, but he was forced to do so. Besides, he has no intention of abdicating at all. It's okay to let Xiao Gang be a shield. not good.

Once Xiao Yan is going to abdicate, Xiao Ji will definitely be arranged to take over in the previous two years.I thought about it for two years, Xiao Yan should send Xiao Ji to some places to practice in other towns, and after he is familiar with the government affairs, he will be transferred back to Jiankang, and it will be time for him to become the prince.

As for the location, the climate in Guangzhou is hot, and it is very bitter there.Jingxiang is already the territory of Xiao Tong's descendants, and Xiangzhou belongs to Xiao Yi, so... probably it can only be the land of Shu. "

Chen Yuankang got the correct answer through the method of elimination.Liu Yishou knew very well that Xiao Ji went to Shu in the end, until the Hou Jing Rebellion.

"In order to pave the way for Xiao Ji's crown prince, Xiao Yan is very likely to let Xiao Ji be in command."

Chen Yuankang added.

Liu Yishou nodded slightly, this can be regarded as a hero who sees and agrees.The main reason is that Xiao Yan's sons are too bad. Xiao Yi, the only one-eyed dragon with some strength, is still hated by Xiao Yan.Xiao Ji, as the eldest son among the dwarfs, is very likely to be selected.

But this is only a small problem. The key question is, who is the lieutenant general?

Xiao Ji didn't have the ability to lead the army, he just represented the banner of Liang Guo's clan and commanded the battle, and there were others.

"Lan Qin is in Zhongli, which is the strategic support for the entire Huaibei. If he leads his troops away, the two Huaihe Rivers will really become our world. It is impossible for Xiao Yan to joke about this kind of thing."

Chen Yuankang was counting his fingers again.

Zhongli's significance to Lianghuai cannot be overemphasized.Otherwise, when Liang Guo was still on the rise, it would not have fought fiercely with the Northern Wei Dynasty in Zhongli.

"Chen Qingzhi can almost be regarded as the only leader of the army that Xiao Yan trusts 100%. Chen Qingzhi must be guarding Stone City, and he can't take a single step."

Chen Yuankang ruled out another one.

"Xia Houkui is still under observation, and he is currently suppressing bandits in Fujian. Xiao Yan will only regain his trust in him after this matter is over. At least his life will not be too easy for the next few years."

This removes one more.

After thinking about it, the two really don't know who Xiao Yan will let in command.

"Could it be Wei Fang?"

Liu Yishou asked curiously, he suddenly remembered this person.Of course, the deeds of this person in the previous life did not seem to be very obvious, but in this life Liu Yishou heard that this person is mature and prudent, quite famous, good at governing the country, and can also lead troops.

More importantly, he is the eldest son of Wei Rui, a famous general of the Southern Dynasties, and he has many contacts in the army.

"My lord..."

Chen Yuankang didn't know how to say something.

"Chang You may wish to speak up if you have something to say."

"This person passed away three days ago. He was in Zhongli before, not far from here. Lan Qin also attended his funeral."

Chen Yuankang said expressionlessly.

You can talk about anything, you can say that Xiao Yan sends a pig to command the army, but if the person dies, it will be fine!
"Wei Fang actually passed away!"

Liu Yishou said with emotion.

Nanliang is now like a patient whose body is rapidly aging. Some of the great figures have all withered, and the newcomers have not stepped up.

"Chen Baxian from Matou County is very cunning, will Xiao Yan let him go?"

Liu Yishou asked in a deep voice.

Chen Yuankang sneered and said: "Where is that cat or dog? Xiao Ying is just one of the soldiers. If Xiao Ying is held down, he can't go anywhere!

Rather than talking about him, it's better to talk about Wu Mingche, at least Wu Mingche is still the princess' handsome man in name. "

Unlike the Northern Wei Dynasty, Nanliang was already full of wars and wars, and everything was spoken by knives, and the survival of the fittest.The atmosphere of ranking according to seniority is still very strong here.

No matter how powerful Chen Baxian was in history, now, he has no chance to play his role at all. He is even being squeezed by Liu Yishou's people in Matou County, and his life is very difficult.

"Forget it, just treat it as opening a blind box."

It was getting late now, Liu Yishou patted Chen Yuankang on the shoulder and said, "Let's go to the camp outside the city."

Going to the barracks at night?

Chen Yuankang was a little puzzled, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only salute.The two walked out of the study room, and found Hu Luxian lying on the stone table alone reading a book, probably looking for nothing to understand, scratching his head and looking anxious.

When the words are used, I hate less, which is probably what this guy is thinking at the moment.

Liu Yishou held back his laughter, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go, accompany me to inspect the camp!"

I met Yuan Shikang practicing martial arts near the gatehouse of the mansion, Liu Yishou called him, and together with more than ten soldiers, they went to the outskirts camp.

Before entering the camp, everyone saw two guards standing listlessly outside the camp gate.Seeing Liu Yishou and others coming, I was so frightened that my soul flew to the sky!

"After ten beats of the drum, those who did not go to the school field to line up, how should we deal with it according to the military law?"

Liu Yishou asked Chen Yuankang.

"According to military law, it should be executed."

Chen Yuankang's complexion changed slightly and he said.

"That's it, beat the drum, start now. After ten beats, we will go to the school ground in the camp."

Liu Yishou said to the two guards standing guard.

Everyone's expressions changed, they didn't expect Liu Yishou to be so decisive.

……

The school grounds were lit with torches, illuminating everything inside and out.There were five people kneeling on the ground, tied up in a mess.Dugu Xin and Zhao Gui who stood beside them looked ugly, but they couldn't get angry.

This big camp is the trilogy of the two of them. They are going to change into new military uniforms and uniform weapons in Shouyang City. They will go out from here after supplies.Unexpectedly, Liu Yishou made a surprise attack.

Do you think the other party is right?It does make sense, and the blame can only be blamed on them thinking that it is near Shouyang, and it is impossible for something to relax their vigilance.

"The expedition is imminent, and the current state of the army makes me very worried."

Liu Yishou sighed, and said to Duguxin and Zhao Gui.

"My lord, please punish me."

"That's it."

Liu Yishou waved his hand.Just when everyone thought he would lift the board high and put it down gently.Just heard a shocking order.

"These five people should all be beheaded, the knife should be faster, it shouldn't hurt. With their lazy state, they will die on the battlefield, so it's better to behead them now, as a warning to others.

Better to cry as a family than all the way. "

Duguxin and Zhao Gui seemed to want to say something, but seeing Liu Yishou's serious expression, they finally sighed and waved their hands.These five people were taken down, and soon, five heads were hung at the gate of the camp.

Liu Yishou took the two of them to the commander's tent.He said worriedly: "This expedition seems to be not dangerous, but no one knows how those pig teammates from Liang Guo will cheat you. And before Liang Jun fails, you can't retreat very far.

In fact, the danger is not when you are attacking the city, but when you have captured Donghai County and Xiapi County, but Liang Jun has not sent troops to Lanling County.Once the situation collapses, not to mention letting you repel the enemies of Wei, at least you can escape back to Pengcheng and stand by for help, right? "

Only then did Dugu Xin and Zhao Gui come to their senses, and realized that their previous thinking was too simple.The enemy may not be prepared as you think, and everything will follow the route you planned.

There may be such enemies, but just like the giant pandas of later generations, they belong to the kind that are about to become extinct.

"Before you capture the second county, you can relax a bit. If you can't beat it, you can retreat. Once you conquer the second county, especially after conquering Xiapi County, you must keep your spirits up. I hope that today's five heads can be saved. A trace of peace."

"Please rest assured, my lord!"

The two clasped their hands and replied, respectfully.The previous dissatisfaction is long gone.

"We will start to change our costumes tomorrow. In name, we are Liang Guo's army. Remember, don't get involved by the idiots sent by Xiao Yan."

After leaving the barracks, everyone returned to the mansion. Liu Yishou took Chen Yuankang back to the study room. Just as he was seated, the resourceful counselor asked calmly: "My lord actually asked the two of you to explore the way and test Gao Huan's depth. .The real killing move is yet to come, right?"

"That's natural."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly, but did not deny Chen Yuankang's guess.

"Where is the killing move?"

"There is a mountain in the northwest of Xiapi City, named Zhuyu Mountain. Just east of this mountain, there is a small city named Wuyuan City. Wuyuan City is located between Xiapi City and Lanling County. If the Liang army is defeated for thousands of miles, the Wei army will If you chase, this is the winner."

Wuyuan City?
Chen Yuankang thought for a long time, but he didn't understand why.

Liu Yishou didn't know how to tell him.There is a well-known name here in later generations, called: Taierzhuang!

Taierzhuang is not important, will the Japanese invaders concentrate their forces to attack here?But how do you explain this to others?
