Chapter 272 Liu Ye's Strategy
Seeing the eyes of everyone, not only was there no fear in my heart, but I became more confident.

Liu Ye said slowly: "To seek the position of Yuzhang prefect, you must choose one of the Yuzhou governor's mansion and the Tunqi camp, and you can't be the one at both ends."

"Tunqiying is one of the soldiers and horses in the West Garden, representing the imperial court. If you join them, you will gain military merits by destroying Gepo in the end, and there will be many twists and turns if you want to get the position of Yuzhang prefect." Liu Ye said here , slightly bitter.

But the current situation is such that we can only face up to this fact: "But if you take refuge in Yuzhou Governor's Mansion, you will be like a fish in water."

After a slight pause, Liu Ye continued talking.

"First, the governors of Yuzhou are all local soldiers and horses"

"Second, most of the local soldiers and horses were influenced by aristocratic families"

"Third, you are here to honor the orders of the prefect of Lujiang."

Speaking of this, Liu Ye looked at Jia Nian: "Just talking about the above three points, I think it is enough."

"Most of the aristocratic families are married to each other, and their connections are intertwined. For me, it is really like a fish in water," Jia Nian said with emotion.

It seems that the intangible benefits brought about by his aristocratic family status are very huge.

"What is the connection between the food escort and the governor's office in Yuzhou?" Jia Nian asked.

Liu Ye said: "In Runan City, is there anyone who is willing to escort the grain and run forty miles? Moreover, the people in the Tunqi camp and the Yuzhou Governor's Mansion don't like each other. If they go to the Tunqi camp, wouldn't they be humiliated?"

"If you ask for orders at this time, you will definitely gain the favor of the Yuzhou Governor's Mansion. The more you are humiliated in the riding camp, the greater the invisible benefits will be." Liu Ye paused again when he said this.

Straighten out your thoughts again, and ask Jia Nian: "I just don't know if you can bear the humiliation."

"If these humiliations can be exchanged for the position of Yuzhang prefect, then it's nothing," Jia Nian said firmly.

Liu Ye showed approving eyes: "It's great that you can think so."

"Will the cavalry battalion win this battle?" Jia Nian couldn't help asking.

Liu Ye shook his head: "I don't know."

"Gepo Yellow Turbans are not easy people. Although the cavalry battalion is the elite of my big man, I am afraid that it is no match for [-] Yellow Turbans. Moreover, the battle is full of changes. Who can determine the victory or defeat before the victory or defeat is decided?" Liu Ye replied.

Deng Dang couldn't recognize the interjection: "If the cavalry battalion wins this battle and writes to the court to slander the governor of Yuzhou, then wouldn't we have done nothing?"

"The imperial court?" Liu Ye showed a complicated expression.

Liu Bi who was standing behind Liu Ye couldn't help sighing in his heart, but he didn't make a sound, but waited quietly.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Ye explained: "Where is the foundation of the court?"

"Your Majesty's decree can remove the captain of Tunqi and the governor of Yuzhou, but it can't kill all the aristocratic families in Yuzhou," Liu Ye said.

When everyone heard this, they seemed to understand something.

"Even if this battle is useless, so what? As long as this move pleases the aristocratic families in Yu, Yang and other states, even if you have no military achievements. With this hard work, you can get the position of prefect of Yuzhang County for you." Liu Ye's tone was very firm.

Since Emperor Guangwu rejuvenated the Han Dynasty, this world is still dominated by aristocratic and powerful families in the final analysis.

It is definitely more beneficial to please a family than to please a general.

Jia Nian obviously thought more than they did: "The victory or defeat is a matter of the Tunqiying camp and Yuzhou governor. We are just the reinforcements who came to help under the orders of the prefect of Lujiang."

"Victory in the cavalry battalion is the blessing of the great man. The defeat in the cavalry battalion is the fault of Bao Hong, the captain of the cavalry camp." Jia Nian's tone was extremely firm.

Seeing that Jia Nian had figured out these things, Liu Ye nodded in satisfaction.

"If there is a chance, I will take the initiative to ask for orders and escort the food to the riding camp," Jia Nian said to Liu Ye.

Liu Ye replied: "I am currently practicing in Yuzhou Governor's Mansion, but I can contribute a little or two to this matter."

"In this way, there will be Lao Ziyang," Jia Nian said.

Liu Ye nodded, and when he was about to say something, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes coming from behind.

stomping on...

A man came galloping on a horse, followed by two cavalry in armor.

"In front are the Jia family of Wan County, the county magistrate of Wan County, and Jia Nian, the head of Chaohu Lake."

The sound came from the front, and the three war horses stopped immediately.

Seeing the face of the visitor, Jia Nian hurriedly greeted him: "Brother Shi"

"It seems that brother is late." Lu Ji got off his horse with the two cavalry behind him.

The reins in his hand were taken over by the soldiers behind him, Lu Ji looked at Liu Ye, and suddenly smiled: "Unexpectedly, Zi Yang is here too."

"By the way, the two of you are friends." The smile on Lu Ji's face became even stronger.

After finishing speaking, he looked at Jia Nian: "My father is already waiting in the city, so you go with me."

"As for these soldiers and horses, they will be placed in the Lujiang barracks outside the city," Lu Ji said.

Seeing Lu Ji's posture, Liu Ye interjected, "There are still official documents to be processed in the governor's office of Yuzhou, so I will take my leave first."

"En" Lu Ji responded.

Jia Nian and Liu Ye looked at each other and nodded secretly.

Liu Ye immediately took Liu Bi, turned around and walked into Runan City.

"The clansmen of the Han Dynasty seldom interact with them," Lu Ji said as he saw Liu Ye's back.

Jia Nian looked puzzled.

"Too often Liu Yan went to Yizhou to take office, and the first thing he did was to cut off the Shu road and implement a separate regime. This is an extraordinary period, and you must not have any relationship with those royal relatives, otherwise your future official career will be worrying." Lu Jizhun exhort.

Jia Nian changed the topic: "Brother Shi is right, but Zi Yang and I are friends of gentlemen, how can we alienate him at this time?"

"It's because of my brother, don't blame Jia Di," Lu Ji said casually when he heard Jia Nian's reply.

Two cavalry stepped forward: "General"

"Take General Jia's subordinates to our Lujiang barracks for repairs," Lu Ji ordered.

The two cavalry replied: "No"

"Deng Dang, Gan Ning, you lead all the soldiers to repair the Lujiang barracks with them," Jia Nian told the two of them.

Gan Ning and Deng Dang bowed and said "yes"

Immediately afterwards, the hurried cavalry turned around and strode in a direction.

The dense and heavy footsteps gradually drifted away, and Lu Ji couldn't help but admire these figures: "No wonder Jiadi can swallow Chaohu and destroy Chen Ce. It seems that the soldiers under his command are quite capable."

"It's just a bit of bravery, and it's far from the Lujiang defenders," Jia Nian said politely.

Lu Ji looked at Jia Nian and smiled meaningfully.

"We are family friends. Isn't it a little strange for you to say this? Isn't it a pity that such soldiers and horses are entrenched in the small Chaohu Lake and Wan County?" Lu Ji said.

Jia Nian seemed to hear something: "Then what does brother mean?"

"What do you mean?" Lu Ji hesitated for a moment, then fell silent.

Seeing this, Jia Nian didn't ask any further questions, but he couldn't help but feel at ease.

It seems that the matter of the prefect of Yuzhang County has been completed in half, and the birth depends on one's own ability.

Immediately getting on the horse, Jia Nian pulled the reins: "Don't let Shibo wait for a long time."

"Brother, how about we rush to the city?" Jia Nian urged.

Lu Ji also got on his horse: "It should be so."

Then he patted the horse's back and galloped towards Runan City.
