Chapter 1214 Beat Yang Guozhong

A month later, Zhuge Liang finally completed the work of counting the military status.

Of the 18 soldiers who surrendered in Yizhou, those under the age of 40 were excluded, and those whose wives, children, and fathers had no one to take care of them when they went out, left about [-] soldiers.

Just occupied the third floor of the total force!

The other 12 soldiers and horses were sent back to their hometowns to engage in farming.

The remaining [-] soldiers and horses are the main force of the Yizhou Army.

After the soldiers and horses were counted, Liu Bian immediately sent troops and horses out of Zhennanzhong.In the land of Nanzhong, there are many Nanman, who occupy the mountains and forests, and refuse to be educated. Now Sima Yi is likely to flee to Nanzhong. If he does not send troops to guard in time, after Liu Bian leaves Yizhou, Sima Yi is likely to unite with the Nanman to sweep back. Yizhou was separated again, so troops should be sent to guard Nanzhong in time to deter the Nanman.

Nanzhong mainly has five counties, including Yizhou County, Yongchang County, Qianwei County, Yuexuan County, and Zangcang County.

Liu Bian set up the governor of Nanzhong with five counties, responsible for guarding Nanzhong.

As for the personnel of the Nanzhong Governor, Liu Bian chose Meng Gong.

Meng Gong did not belong to any lineage of Sima Yi and Yang Su, and was very loyal to the Han Dynasty. Moreover, Meng Gong in history was known as a master of mobile defense, and his commanding ability was still higher than that of Sima Yi. With Meng Gong guarding Nanzhong, Sima Yi must also be unable to stir up trouble.

Therefore, after the inventory of soldiers and horses was completed, Liu Bian sent Meng Gong to lead [-] soldiers and horses to go out of the town of Nanzhong as the governor of Nanzhong, and he also sent Ma Zhong, Zhang Yi and other generals to serve as Meng Gong's lieutenants.

In history, Ma Zhong and Zhang Yi served as the governors of Nanzhong in the Shu Han Dynasty and were responsible for guarding Nanzhong. Ma Zhong was very decent in guarding Nanzhong, and was deeply loved by the people of Nanzhong.Zhang Yi's strict enforcement of the law once caused Nanzhong to rebel, but it was nothing serious.

With these two people assisting Meng Gong, there must be no trouble in Nanzhong.

On the Chengdu side, there are still [-] soldiers and horses left.

Liu Bian appointed Gao Jiong as the governor of Yizhou to command the [-] troops, and Qin Huaiyu, Yang Jizhou, Han Qinhu, Wu Yi brothers and others as generals.

Gao Jiong's task was mainly to be responsible for training troops and guarding Yizhou, and he was also Meng Gong's back-up.After Yizhou regained its strength in a few years, he went south to meet Meng Gong, the governor of Nanzhong, and together crusade against the barbarians in Nanzhong.

In terms of politics in Yizhou, Liu Bian fulfilled his promise, using Zhang Song as the governor of Yizhou, and Dong He and Fazheng as his assistants and assistants.

And these days Luoyang, the students sent by Jingzhou also arrived in Chengdu one after another. Fazheng and others also recommended many talents, and there were also talents from all over Yizhou.

Liu Bian used these talents to serve as officials in various places in Yizhou.

However, because Liu Bian, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen and others are currently in Chengdu, they are mainly responsible for the government affairs of Yizhou.

Time flies to December, Liu Bian has been in Yizhou for half a year, and all the affairs of Yizhou have entered the normal process. Crops such as sweet potatoes and corn have also been introduced to Yizhou, and it only takes three months. In [-], Yizhou will be able to restore prosperity and even develop rapidly.

And Liu Bian also led his troops back to Luoyang in mid-December, preparing to return to the capital for the New Year.

As for Chang Yuchun, Zhuge Liang also left Yizhou with soldiers and horses, followed Liu Bian, and returned to his post.

A month later, Liu Bian returned to Luoyang.

At this moment, Luoyang is once again covered with snow, and the weather is very cold, but even so, it cannot conceal the prosperity of Luoyang. The streets are still full of traffic and people coming and going.

After returning to Luoyang, Liu Bian spent a few days with his concubines before devoting himself to state affairs.

In the middle of the first month of the new year, when Liu Bian was dealing with official business, Yang Yansi entered the hall with his hands folded at the door, and reported: "Your Majesty, Yang Guozhong is begging to see you!"

"Yang Guozhong? What is he doing here?" Liu Bian put down the ink brush in his hand and asked in confusion.

Yang Yansi cupped his hands and said: "I heard that after he came to Luoyang with his majesty, he often made friends with Luoyang officials as a relative of the emperor, and many people in the city went to curry favor with him."

"Oh, I'm not in a hurry, but he is in a hurry." Hearing what Yang Yansi said, Liu Bian naturally understood the purpose of Yang Guozhong's visit, and immediately smiled.

Yang Yuhuan is one of the four great beauties in history, so Liu Bian naturally would not miss it. Liu Bian's purpose for bringing Yang Guozhong from Yizhou to Luoyang was also very clear.However, Liu Bian left Luoyang for too long and accumulated a lot of state affairs, so he ignored Yang Guozhong. Unexpectedly, Liu Bian was not in a hurry, but Yang Guozhong was in a hurry.

Yang Miaozhen on the side cupped her hands and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know if I should say a word or not."

"What's the relationship between us, let's talk about it." Liu Bian shook his head and smiled.

Yang Miaozhen said in a low voice: "Yang Guozhong is very utilitarian. These days, he is making friends with nobles everywhere in Luoyang by the side of the emperor's relatives, and some officials even go to make friends with him. His Majesty has not married Yang Yuhuan, so he will be like this. If His Majesty really marry Without him, Yang Guozhong has really become an uncle of the country, I am afraid that his arrogance will become more arrogant, and the integrity of Luoyang city will be tarnished. If things go on like this, it will be a disaster."

"That's right, I'll beat him up, let him in." Liu Bian nodded. Although Yang Miaozhen was somewhat against Yang Yuhuan, what he said was indeed not unreasonable.

The Yang Guozhong in history was not very capable, but he became the uncle of the country because his younger sister Yang Yuhuan was favored by Tang Minghuang, and then he took power, so that the Anshi Rebellion broke out.

"But I'm not Tang Minghuang. Your hope, Yang Guozhong, is probably going to come to naught." Liu Bian rolled his eyes, rubbed his chin, and thought about how to beat Yang Guozhong so that he could have a long memory.

But Yang Guozhong was brought in immediately.

"Grassman Yang Guozhong pays homage to His Majesty!" Yang Guozhong knew his memory quite well, and when he saw Liu Bian, he hurriedly saluted, doing it meticulously, and his face was full of respect.

"Stay flat!" Liu Bian waved his hand and said.

Yang Guozhong was still kneeling on the ground, and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty. In front of His Majesty Long Wei, the grass people kneel will do. It's just that your Majesty just returned from Yizhou, and has not had time to rest, so he is busy with state affairs. You must take care of the dragon's body." , the great man's country cannot be separated from His Majesty."

Hearing these words, Liu Bian only felt it was funny. If Zhuge Liang, Xun Yu and other loyal ministers said it, Liu Bian would only be moved, but when it came from Yang Guozhong, Liu Bian felt extremely awkward.

Liu Bian thought to himself: "No wonder you can get Li Longji's favor, and the skill of speaking kind words is really top-notch!"

Suddenly Liu Bian had an idea and found a way to beat Yang Guozhong, so he said with a smile: "I love what you say, the country needs loyal ministers like you, get up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Seeing what Liu Bian said, Yang Guozhong got up slowly, and continued: "Caomin saw that His Majesty was so tired, and his heart felt like a knife was twisted. However, his knowledge was so shallow that he couldn't help His Majesty. It's really Hanyan. Fortunately, Caomin still has a heart." Serving the country with a sincere heart, if His Majesty orders you, the grassroots will die!"
