Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 672 The Foundation of Merit
With the destruction of the rest of Peng Biao's army and the restoration of Huainan, the confrontation between the North and the South returned to the situation before the rebellion between the Soviet Union and the ancestors.And Shen Zhezi also officially led his troops to enter Shouchun City, took over the city defense, dispatched troops calmly, divided the troops to guard the Huaixia castles, and divided the reinforcements from the Jienu ministries.

At the same time, thousands of Qingqi from the Xuzhou Army also arrived at the Huaishang Fortress at Matou Garrison east of Shouchun to take over the defense.

At this point, the battle in Huainan was a foregone conclusion. If most of the Jienu did not gather to the south, it would be impossible to break through the Huai River and regain Shouchun if they only relied on the dispatch of the surrounding theaters to attack.

"Weizhou, you are really... embarrassing me! Such a battle report is submitted to Taichung, isn't this giving people a handle and attracting criticism?"

With such a large-scale assembly of the Yuzhou Army, it is naturally impossible for Yu Yi to stabilize the rear of Liyang. He has always been in Hefei.As soon as he received the battle report from Shen Zhezi, the joy that had been caused by the great victory disappeared immediately, and he flew to Shouchun immediately, frowning and sighing after meeting.

Shen Zhezi was coming from Xiashi City outside the city to patrol the camp. Hearing Yu Yi's complaint before the armor was released, he immediately smiled: "Your uncle is talking about this battle report? It is indeed a little exaggerated, but the general is out, there is always something to do." From the perspective of expediency, Master Wang always needs to show kindness and power in order to stabilize the township when he decides a new place. If Taichung puts the overall situation first, it should not be blamed for this."

"This is not a question of guilt or not. Shouchun was originally the old town of the ancestors. Most of the people in this town are farther than the king's affairs, and their deeds are still unpredictable. If you only blindly favor, but do not show power, it will be inevitable. Maybe there will be hidden dangers!"

As the situation in Yuzhou is getting better, especially after the last collection of compound fertilizer, Yu Yi has become more and more aware of the awareness of Fangzhen officials, and gradually no longer pays attention to Taichung's attitude.He was worried that Shen Zhezi's out-of-standard show of kindness might make these dock masters more proud and courageous, and they would be more difficult to control in the future.

"My uncle is worried, but I have actually considered it. If I have the time to spare, I will give both kindness and power, and judge the virtuous and loyal, instead of ignoring the virtuous and foolish, the generous kindness will be overflowing."

Shen Zhezi's face became more serious when he said this: "But the problem is that Jie Nu may not give us this time. In the middle of the year, we went north and recovered Huainan in a few months. Since the resurgence, Wang Shi has never made such an ambitious plan. , This is a great victory for the eyes of the world! Don't be underestimated, my uncle, the town of Yuzhou is already a great army that everyone in the world looks forward to!"

"There's no need to praise Weizhou in private. Huang Quan and Peng Biao were all killed by your hands. The victory in Huainan this time is all due to your control of the army, and the scholars are helping each other. !Outsiders may be confused, and I am well aware of this.”

Hearing Shen Zhezi's words, Yu Yi said that there was a lot of gratification in his words, but he was not all greedy for the name.He has been in Yuzhou for a long time and has not improved for a long time. Shen Zhezi's joining and the support of Shen's family's wealth made Yuzhou's momentum explode.

After Shen Zhezi heard the words, he sighed: "Although my brother-in-law has such a reputation, how dare I take credit for it. If my brother-in-law hadn't believed in it and entrusted everything to me, I am just a backward person in Wuzhong, and the emperor's family is partial to my relatives. How could I get it?" Give what you use, and it’s a little bit like Bo Xun.”

"Wei Zhou, you said that, but did you hear any rumors of discord?"

Yu Yi frowned after hearing the words, and said seriously: "Outsiders may not know how deep the two families are, but you, a gentleman, shouldn't have self-deprecating thoughts! In the past years, your family's old affairs have been burdened, and I use my life to remonstrate with you. You and your father have formed a good life. Su and ancestors are in chaos, and my family has committed a great crime to the country. If it weren't for your father and son's help, An Neng has been able to make it so far? The love is so deep, and each knows it in the heart, is it the power of common eyes! Family property, life We can all share it, and we can only advance in a small way, so we can't share prosperity together?"

Shen Zhezi couldn't help sighing in his heart when he saw Yu Yi's solemn demeanor and his heavy words.Maybe it's because he judges the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but Yu Yi really doesn't feel alienated from himself.But in this world, there are indeed many people who share weal and woe, but not many people who can share wealth and honor. Even if Yu Yi doesn't think so, they should be vigilant against each other, and don't be attacked by others.

He generously favored these Huainan people, but he was actually a little defensive.After recovering Shouchun, as long as we do a little bit of management and hold on to the front line of the Huaihe River, we can maintain a long-term confrontation if we don't make further progress.As a result, the situation in Yuzhou has been greatly improved.

It can be said that even without the help of the Shen family, the current Yu family alone can actually be said to have wiped out the decline and stabilized Yuzhou.But without Yu Yi's strong support, Shen Zhezi may not be able to stabilize Shouchun right now.

After all, his age and background are hurdles that cannot be overcome. Although there have been a series of victories, Taichung may not be happy if the important town of Shouchun is handed over to him so easily.

Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too sharp.It can be said that the Shen family alone supported the battle to regain Huainan.Once Yu Yi feels a little bit of fear, he will immediately be taken advantage of by others, tearing apart the originally intimate cooperation between the two parties.

Either Yu Yi hadn't thought about it right now, or others hadn't realized it yet, but Shen Zhezi couldn't help but think about it.In the final analysis, he is just a southerner. In the past, there was no huge interest as a temptation, so everyone could take it lightly, but now that Huainan knows that his background will be firmly grasped by those who are interested in it, hoping to win the battle.

Therefore, for others, the battle of Huainan was over, and it was time to share the results.But for Shen Zhezi, the battle of Huainan is just the beginning, and the next one is the battle he has really planned for a long time. Whether on the battlefield or in the court, if he wins this battle, the future will be worry-free!
The family wealth accumulated over the years was once poured into Jiangbei, and only Huainan can't satisfy Shen Zhezi, and it can't meet his requirements to determine the fate of the family and the country after the First World War!

"My brother's words, I naturally remember the five families. The love between the two families is as deep as the sea. Although they are not connected by flesh and blood, they share weal and woe! But what I said is not this, but Huainan Xiaosheng, which is not happy at all. If you stop here, you and my family are just another Su and Zu family. Moreover, now that Huainan is won, how do I think the stone thief Shilong will react?"

When Shen Zhezi spoke up to this point, he was already worried, but he didn't put on a show, but really didn't dare to relax.

Yu Yi was taken aback for a moment when he heard the words, and then murmured: "Weizhou has great vision and a big heart. It is true that Shouchun is located, and it is an important place to look around. Shi Shilong missed it for a while, and he will definitely whip his soldiers to fight in the future. You have to take it back. But you don’t have to worry about Weizhou. The people of Liangjun will be here in the future, and Liyang will also recruit a strong army. In a few months, more than [-] people can be gathered here, and they will all belong to Weizhou. Here!"

"Not enough, not enough!"

Shen Zhezi shook his head after hearing the words, and said in a deep voice: "The loss of slaves this winter is not just in Shouchun. Jingzhou Tao Gong drove his troops, Xiangyang has recovered, and Han Mian is looking forward to it. Xuzhou Xigong has arrived in Huai, and the next day Then we will gather the crowd to fight against Xuyi. The towns in the north of the Yangtze River have made progress over the years, and this is a sign of great prosperity after the king's industry has been buried for a long time!"

"Although the thieves have devoured the land of the Central Plains and accepted the old country, there is no great order in the territory, and there are peeps from all directions. This time the king's division is advancing, the court of the captives will definitely be shaken. If they come to attack, it will definitely not be a crowd. It is very possible to mobilize all captive troops and pour the country to attack! We must use the power of landslides to defeat the aggressive enemies, and use this feat to shock the four fields, and continue the captive movement for a while."

When Yu Yi heard this, his complexion changed, and he said in a shy voice: "It's just a birthday, and the slaves won't pay much attention to it. Now it's reasonable to lose it again, it may not be..."

"Whether it will or not, it's hard for me to say for sure. However, the gains and losses of the country cannot depend on the importance of the thieves. My consideration may seem alarmist, but it is better to be prepared than to deal with it hastily. So in the future The gains and losses of Shouchun’s safety cannot be regarded as normal, and we still have to go all out and dare not stay behind. Even if slaves and thieves will not attack the country with all their might, we must spare no effort to mobilize our troops so that we can drink horses and rivers as soon as possible!"

Shen Zhezi said sternly that although Jienu did not launch any major wars to the south during this period in the original history, Jiangdong did not send troops to the north on such a large scale in the original history.

What is certain is that during this period, the interior of Jienu was extremely unstable, full of cracks from top to bottom, and various contradictions can be said to run through from the court to the countryside.Under such circumstances, large-scale defeats frequently came from the south, which caused a great shock to its surroundings and its interior.And the best way to suppress and pass on these contradictions is to launch a war, a large-scale war!
So Shen Zhezi thinks that Jie Nu is very likely to launch a large-scale military operation next year, no matter which direction it goes.

Therefore, we must take advantage of this great victory and gather enough troops in Shouchun as soon as possible. If the Jienu really attack Shouchun, then naturally they will fight to the death in the city.It would be even better if they attacked elsewhere, taking advantage of the emptiness inside, go directly north along the Yingshui River from the Huaihe River, and sweep Heluo!

Therefore, no matter how you look at it, the birthday of the coming year will inevitably be the starting point and center of a great war.What Yu Yi was worried about was that showing too much kindness would cause all the people in Huainan to form a group and accumulate hidden dangers, which was not a problem at all.Show the people of the country to be kind, and show the enemy to show their prestige!If one can really stand up to one's prestige by fighting, all these accumulated hidden dangers can be solved by turning around and cutting the mess with a quick knife!

Yu Yi pondered for a long time before saying in a slightly hoarse tone: "If the slaves really want to attack the whole country next year, Weizhou, do you have the confidence to defend Shouchun?"

After Shen Zhezi heard the words, he just said in a deep voice: "There is no teacher who can always win in the world, and no one has a man who can reach the sky. How dare you say that you will win. It is nothing more than using your life. Now that you have gone so far, this city is the place where the bones are buried. The city is the foundation of my achievements! I hope that my uncle can help me with all his strength, all this ambition!"

"What are you talking about! I'm just a mediocre person in the family, but you, Wei Zhou, are the son of a hundred-year-old family. Your father is willing to send you to me to take orders. That's the trust of the family! I am too The old man is talking wildly, and we are advancing and retreating together here, not doing it alone, not doing it alone!"

When Yu Yi spoke up to this point, he rolled up his sleeves and swears.
