Governor please stay

Chapter 492 Tears of the Times

Although the military situation is not urgent, the situation is still very urgent.Yuan Shikang communicated a little outside the bedroom, and soon Liu Yishou got dressed and came to the lobby, but found that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes, as if hesitant to speak.

"My lord...you still have to take care of yourself."

It took a long time before Yang Zhong could hold back such a sentence.

"It's not what you think it is."

Liu Yishou yawned. He felt that Yang Zhong and the others probably thought that he was crazy on the bed with some women at home last night until dawn, and now he was on the verge of death.

In fact how is that possible!
Liu Yishou now knows how to control himself very well.In fact, last night was just a night of playing around, like taking off his clothes when he lost, and finally painted a turtle or something on his body in Mahjong Fighting the Landlord, and he just enjoyed his eyes by the side.

Most of the time, Liu Yishou played with these girls as the organizer and referee.

In fact, Liu Yishou did nothing but play cards last night.It's just that I stayed up all night and watched too many sexy scenes, and my spirit was a little over-excited, and now I'm a little depressed.

You can make up for it when you find time to sleep.

"These ladies have been with me for many years, even the youngest Yuan Yuyi is now a mother. The spiritual comfort and happiness are long-lasting and endless.

I just had a good time last night, there are no such miscellaneous things, don't think wrongly. "

Liu Yishou yawned again, waved his hands and said.

Chen Yuankang and the others all looked in disbelief, as if they felt that Liu was getting darker and darker.

"My lord, there is a civil uprising in Jurong Mountain. The villagers organized a team to fight with the family's slave hunting team. Both sides suffered casualties."

Yang Zhong reported in a deep voice.

There are many mountains and rivers on Jurong Mountain, and the "Zhanshange" decree directly affects the distribution of hidden wealth in the local area.

With the support of the imperial court's decrees, the "treacherous people" naturally want to get back their own part of the benefits, and it is reasonable to conflict with the slave hunting team of the big family.

To put it simply, in Jurong with Jurong Mountain as its core, similar contradictions have always existed.

It's just that there was no decree similar to "Zhanshange" in the past, or the imperial court did not make substantial progress, so ordinary self-cultivating farmers and tenants did not dare to compete with the big family in this regard.

Now the imperial court expressed that it would substantively support these people to fight for their own interests, so they directly stood up and resisted.The scope of Shanshui has not yet been divided, so it is necessary to come out to fight first. It is actually self-evident what the two sides are up to.

This matter is not simple. It can be seen that Jiankang and the big families around Jiankang are testing the strength of the imperial court in enforcing the decree.If this matter is left alone, then the court's "Zhanshange" will lose its appeal, and no one will take it seriously.

The old aristocratic powerful families of the Southern Dynasties are now decayed, and they have no ability to go to the front to fight against the Wei army. Infighting and oppressing the bottom are the same thing.

Liu Yishou is now faced with this difficult problem. If he can't handle it well, all the previous operations will be in vain.

"Who is the current Jurong county magistrate?"...

Liu Yishou looked at Chen Yuankang and asked.

"Looks like a king from the Langya Wang clan...what's the matter?"

There were too many names of officials, and he couldn't think of them for a while.Although Jurong County is very close to the south of Jiankang, it is just a small local official.Chen Yuankang just remembered the faction the official belonged to.

"Remove him, capture him and bring him to Taicheng for questioning! Change to Dangdang, you can see who is better."

Liu Yishou asked impatiently.

From this point of view, it can be seen that the aristocratic family is playing the game, and Yang Zhong is a bit too duty-bound.If you cut it first and played it later, would there still be troubles now?Facing the small actions of those aristocratic families, it can be said that they cannot back down even a single step.Once you give in, they'll make a big difference.

"The former Nankang king's internal historian Zhou Fahao is worthy of great responsibility."

Chen Yuankang said calmly.

This is an "unemployed person" who only joined Liu Yishou not long ago. Because Nankang King Xiao Ji died of illness a few years ago, his staff members were all thrown away. Most of these people have now taken refuge with Liu Yishou.

Chen Yuankang used the trick of attacking differences with one another quite smoothly, and Zhou Fahao was not the only example.Liu Yishou's status is obvious now, he has golden thighs.

"Will this person be cruel to the family members? For example, kill a few children of the family."

Liu Yishou asked thoughtfully.

Chen Yuankang frowned slightly and said nothing, the answer was of course no.You can't expect people who have just joined you to be willing to go to the pond to catch human-eating crocodiles for you.

Obviously, Zhou Fahao will not completely break with the aristocratic family with practical actions as Liu Yishou thought.

Not helping the great family is obviously not the same as going against them wholeheartedly.The difference between the two is too great.

"Well, I understand, let's not replace him, I have a more suitable candidate."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly, stood up and said to Yang Zhong: "Lead the troops to Jurong Mountain, and arrest all those who participated in the conflict, as many as possible. Whether it is a self-cultivator, a tenant, or a slave team of an aristocratic family, everyone arrest.

Let the newly appointed Jurong County Magistrate come to Jiankang to handle the case! "

Is that all right?
Yang Zhong, Chen Yuankang and others all looked dull, not knowing what Liu Yishou was playing.

"My lord's order, as long as it is carried out."

The Shake King Hu Luxian, who had been silent all this time, interjected, which brought Yang Zhong and the others back to their senses.

"Here! This subordinate will do it!"

Yang Zhong bowed his hands and made a salute and then resigned, fearing that Liu Yishou would make something wrong again.

Hu Luxian also followed Yang Zhong out of the lobby.

Chen Yuankang asked Liu Yishou with some doubts: "My lord, this county magistrate of Jurong is a key person, and he has to be in charge of going through the needles to get things done. Who is better to take up the post?"

He understood that Liu Yishou's operation was to turn this matter into a "model project", which was the same as Shang Yang's city gate erection.But Chen Yuankang didn't know who could take on this great job.

Ordinary people will not be able to go, the pressure from the aristocratic family is very high, I am afraid they will not be able to withstand it.

But when people with status go, they are easy to collude with those aristocratic families, just like the current Jurong county magistrate, who pretends to be blind and ignores the civil uprising under his nose, which is really hateful! …

"I have a clever plan. Changyou (Chen Yuankang's name) went back to the Minister's Mansion first, and sent someone to arrest the current Jurong County Magistrate, and accused him of dereliction of duty and corruption. This kind of person, you can always find out the problem here."

Liu Yishou said indifferently.

After Chen Yuankang left, Liu Yishou rubbed his forehead wearily.

The country of Nanliang is rotten to the root. Even if you want to make a little change and restore a little vitality, you will encounter great resistance.

But if you don't take advantage of the opportunity that the north can't spare time to attack you to carry out some reforms, it will be like a dream to think about the northern expedition to Luoyang.

Liu Yishou stood up, went to the yard, and whispered some instructions to Yuan Shikang.

Hearing his words, Yuan Shikang frowned slightly, and asked in bewilderment: "My lord, why don't you invite me to the mansion's study room to discuss matters, do you have to make another appointment?"

"Haha, this will be done, the secret must not be leaked! Hahahahahaha!"

Liu Yishou touched his head and said with a dry smile.Yuan Shikang was taken aback for a while.

He intuitively thought that Liu Yishou seemed to have a guilty conscience, but he couldn't find any evidence.

"Come on, let's do it early."

Liu Yishou patted Yuan Shikang on the shoulder and said, urging him to go to work quickly.

……

Three days later, the mound at Tongtai on the northeast side of Yubi City was finally piled up, and the sheep were ready to attack the tower.

But the person in charge of digging the tunnel was not Duan Shao, but a charlatan: Li Yexing.

Or call this person a famous scholar.

Li Yexing was originally a school secretary in the Northern Wei Dynasty. He was knowledgeable, read ancient and modern books, and was good at composing sentences.He is proficient in all kinds of schools of thought, Tuwei, Fengjiao, astronomy and Zhanhou, especially good at astronomy and calendar calculation.

In order to conquer Yubi City this time, Gao Huan even invited this great god, thinking that Li Yexing would use the Guxu method to break Yubi City.

In ancient times, when two armies faced off against each other, military divisions or generals would always leave a small part of their troops in reserve.When the opponent shows a flaw, he will send out this team to kill one of them by surprise, so as to capture the enemy and win the victory.

This trick can be described as tried and tested.

And this small part of the troops left behind is equivalent to "solitary", taking advantage of the enemy's flaws, that is, the appearance of "Xu", and using "Gu" to "Xu" to win.

The method of solitary emptiness is about finding the flaws in the battle formation. It has something to do with traceable things like astronomy and geography, and it also has to do with illusory things like luck and the five elements. It can be said to be extremely heterogeneous.

Whether it is useful or not, is really a matter of opinion for the beholder, and wisdom for the wise.

"To King Gao, General Duan's method is very good, but the excavation of the tunnel must be done in the northeast of the city, not in the west."

Li Yexing stroked his long beard and said to Gao Huan.

You just said it at this time?What are you eating!
Gao Huan glared at the other party with displeasure, but Duan Shao's impression of this person changed quite a bit.

"Mr. Li, didn't we already agree before, General Duan Yang Gong, you command other people to dig the tunnel to the west of the city?"

It was hard for Gao Huan to believe that this person went to observe the northeast city wall where Duan Shao was, and then changed his mind temporarily, planning to dig tunnels to attack the city from here! …

"King Gao, this old man has checked carefully. There was a mistake in the previous plan. I'm afraid there will be water veins dug in the west, and it will be inconvenient to attack the city."

Li Yexing said awkwardly, but still insisted.

Observing Feng Shui, you can't just look at a local area.Now that he came to the east, he realized that the previous plan was extremely inappropriate.

"Mr. Li, there is no joke in the army. Although you do not serve in the army, commanding the digging of tunnels is a military order."

Gao Huanhu said with a stern face, he was almost pissed off by this Li Yexing.

"If you look at it from the perspective of solitary emptiness, the only suitable way to attack Yubi is to dig a tunnel from here."

He didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to say anything.

Digging a tunnel on my own side also depends on whether the enemy is prepared.If the enemy army is prepared, then the solitary method is not very useful, after all, fighting is never a family affair!

"Forget it, then step back two hundred steps and start digging the tunnel."

Gao Huan waved his hand impatiently.

In fact, Li Yexing is right. The location of Yubi City is close to the river, and there are abundant underground water sources.Wei Xiaokuan and others successfully drilled wells in the city, and there was more than one well, which is the most typical example.

But what Gao Huan wanted to hear was not these "processes", but the final outcome.

Whoever has a "miracle plan", who can capture Yubi City, is right.Gao Huan only cares about whether he can capture the city!

"King Gao, what Mr. Li said makes sense. Our army can form an array near the mound to cover the nurses and soldiers digging tunnels."

"That's fine."

Gao Huan sighed helplessly, he was really annoyed by Yubi City.

On his own side, Wei Xiaokuan erected wooden buildings on top of the two city towers, and garrisoned them with sharpshooters to maintain pressure on the attacking side.However, the bosses on both sides of Yubi City are extremely tall and steep, and ordinary siege methods are not easy to use.

"Let's attack the city!"

Gao Huan waved his hand fiercely, and the soldiers on the mound pushed the ladder forward, put it on the earth wall of Yubi City, and began to climb over the ladder.

Wei Xiaokuan was commanding at the top of the city, and he had already prepared knives, axes and kerosene.

Dozens of ladders used by Gao Huan's army were quickly cut off or burned. Unfortunately, the soldiers who were climbing on them fell into the deep ditch under the earth barrier.

For two hours in a row, the two sides saw-saw between the anxious siege and defense.The defense of the defenders is more than sufficient, and the death rate is much lower than that of the attacking side.Gao Huan, who was watching the battle on the mound, watched anxiously, but there was nothing he could do.

"King Gao, it's not an option to go on like this. This subordinate has a plan, and maybe he can make a difference."

Duan Shao said calmly.

Li Xingye also came over and looked at Duan Shao with great interest, as if he was waiting for the other party's answer.

"Tell me, what can I do?"

Gao Huan asked displeased.

"King Gao, mobilize the whole army to dig tunnels, not only on the northeast side, but also in the west city, and move as much as you can.

Even if the defenders knew what we were thinking, they couldn't..."

Before Duan Shao finished speaking, Gao Huan waved his hand and said, "These clichés have already been said before. If the soldiers are all digging tunnels, who will attack the city? If you have no strength, you can beat the defenders." What? Nonsense!"

Gao Huan left angrily. Today's unfavorable siege made him lose his last patience.

After he left, Li Yexing enthusiastically pulled Duan Shao aside, and asked with interest: "Then, why doesn't General Duan finish the method just now?"

Duan Shao, who was discouraged by Gao Huan, waved his hands, not wanting to talk to Li Yexing, so he said in a perfunctory way: "It's all clichés, Mr. Li should arrange someone to dig a tunnel, Gao Wang has no patience now. gone."

Li Yexing was the person in charge of directing the digging of the tunnel, and it was his meritorious deeds.

Although Duan Shao will not hinder Li Yexing from doing business, but why should he help this person who has no friendship with him?

He decided to keep his thoughts for now.

……

"General Wei, Gao Huan's men are digging tunnels, there are quite a few of them!"

The deputy general reported to Wei Xiaokuan.

"Hehe, it's still here!"

He smiled confidently, this method has long been expected.The ledge above Yubi City is not flat, but a deep trench has been dug inside.

No matter how the tunnel is dug, it will eventually pass through those trenches.

"Prepare a fire starter in the ditch, wherever there is movement, light it there!"

Wei Xiaokuan calmly ordered.
