Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 308
A heavy rain fell on the ground, washing away the blood on the ground.

Lu Polou was originally strong and wearing armor. Li Yue fixed the broken bone and took care of it for a few days. Then he woke up slowly, looked at Li Yue, and looked at Lu Guang beside him, falling into a momentary confusion .

"Father!" Lu Guang was overjoyed.

Hearing his son's voice, Lu Polou's eyes became clearer, and he sighed, "Why didn't Liang Gong kill me? I would rather die than surrender!"

The Lu family is all in Guanxi, and if he surrenders, even if the whole family is not destroyed, they will have no face in Guanzhong from now on.

Lu Polou had followed Fu Hong for decades, and Li Yue didn't expect him to surrender.

"After a few more days of recuperation, you will be able to walk. Your Excellency misses Fu, and I will send you back to Guanzhong."

"You..." Lu Polou looked at Li Yue in surprise.

Li Yue said with a smile: "The two families had no enmity in the past. If you hadn't planned for Yuzhou first, and then for me, how could we be here today? After returning, you can advise Lord Qin that the two families are not life and death enemies, so you don't have to die."

Before Murong's family was dealt with, Li Yue definitely couldn't get away and go to Guanzhong.

Similarly, Fu Jian has the Zhang family of Liangzhou to the west, Sima Xun of Hanzhong to the south, and the Huns are also expanding to the north.

If there are a few "pro-Liang factions" in Guanzhong, Fu Jian can be restrained a little in the future, and Lu Guang is equivalent to the proton he left behind.

Lu Polou was silent for a while, then glanced at Lu Guang, "Thank you, Mr. Liang, for not killing me."

"General Lu needs to rest, so don't bother me too much. Your father and son are so close." Li Yue went out after finishing his last sentence, letting the father and son talk privately, and at the same time let Lu Polou know the current situation.

After several days of heavy rain, the summer heat gradually faded away.

However, the enthusiasm of the counties and counties in Yuzhou has not subsided, and they have handed in their registration forms and household registrations one after another.

Runan, Qiaojun, Yiyang, Yang'an, Xiangcheng, and Liangguo all hung black clouds and red flags on the city walls within a few days.

Zhang Yu has been running Yuzhou for more than [-] years, and the population has recovered slightly. There are [-] households registered in the household registration, but the real population definitely exceeds this number.

There are many mountains in the south of Yuzhou in the west of Henan, and there are many refugee villages in the mountains.

Cui Hong cupped his hands and said: "In the world of Yuzhou, the heart of the Central Plains, Mr. Liang should manage it with capable people. If this place is safe, the south will have no worries. You can go north to compete with the Murong family in Hebei!"

Jiang Dong was cut off half of his life by Yao Xiang, and the Northern Expedition that he had been working on for several years was ruined, and the loss was more than ten times greater than that of Chu Po back then.

Within three years, Jiangdong should not make another northern expedition.

All that remains is how to coax Huan Wen so that he can target Guan Zhong.

Chang Wei is the only one who can be appointed as a civilian and military officer under his command. He has been sent to the generals several times and is familiar with the situation in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Confess Changwei as the governor of Yuzhou, Chen Duan as the general of Nanzhong, promote Cui Jin as the leading general, Bo Wu as the governor of Qingzhou, Xu Cheng as the general of Beizhong, leave the town of Changshan, and Liang Xiaodong as the general of Zhonglang." Li Yue quickly made a decision. Adjustment.

The front, back, left, and right generals are false titles, while Zhonglang generals are real positions holding military power. They first appeared in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Lu Zhi once used Zhonglang generals to attack the Yellow Turban Army.

Both Jiezhao and Jiangdong set up Zhonglang generals in the east, west, north, south, and north to replace the four governors of the year, so as to prevent the local military power from being too large and threatening the central government.

After staying in Linru for a few days, the weather gradually turned fine.

The autumn harvest is approaching, and the joy of harvest is everywhere.

It is even more surprising that Chang Wei counted the treasuries of Xuchang, Yangzhai, and Xiangcheng.

One treasury of Xuchang has more than 270 million stone grains, and the other Yangdi and Xiangcheng each have 50 million grains and grass. The money and silk are piled up like mountains, and it is too late to count them.

It's no wonder that Zhang Yu has been refusing to move in Yuzhou. With money and food in his hands, and no survival crisis, who would want to hang his head on his crotch?
Li Yue knew Zhang Yu too well. He had no ambition to compete in the Central Plains, but wanted to live in Yuzhou behind closed doors.

Whoever comes will surrender. Originally, he fell in love with Jiangdong, but the Jiangdong gentry did not open their eyes to look at him, which led to the tragedy of the failure of the Jiangdong Expedition...

Li Yue immediately took out half of the money in Xuchang's treasury and rewarded the troops. Even the civilians who were transporting the baggage in the rear were given one stone of grain.

It can be regarded as a happy event.

Li Yue felt that it was a good deal to pay less than 30 shi for food to satisfy the soldiers and the people.

After all, this food is also obtained out of thin air, and it is generous.

The government eats meat, and the soldiers and common people drink a sip of soup, in order to achieve sustainable development and a virtuous circle. Next time, others will be willing to raise their knives to help in the war.

The military system of the Wei and Jin Dynasties continued, but it had a huge drawback.

Frequent wars lead to the birth of military households, whose descendants have served in the army for generations. The social status is low, and ordinary people are unwilling to intermarry with them.

If they die in battle, the fate of their wives and daughters will be even more tragic, and they will be designated by the government as wives to other military households...

Zhao Zhi, a famous scholar in the Western Jin Dynasty, was ashamed of being a scholar, so he worked hard and inspired the eunuchs to become famous.

It is not surprising that the elites were ashamed to join the army and were hanged and beaten by foreigners in the Western Jin Dynasty.

During the Qin and Han Dynasties of the Warring States period, the noble elites were proud of fighting in battle, and good families joined the army to serve the country, so the Qin and Han Dynasties were forged. Huo Qubing's [-] cavalry dared to attack the Huns' lair, and Li Ling's [-] infantry fought against [-] Huns on the grassland. Cavalry bloody battle.

Today, it is absolutely unbelievable.

If you want to improve your combat power, it's useless to fight chicken blood. In addition to giving soldiers actual benefits, you must also improve their social status.

"Grand Liang's grace of not killing, Polou will always remember it." Lu Polou's body recovered a lot, and she was already able to ride a war horse.

Lu Guang has been taking care of him for the past few days, and he knows everything he needs to know, so he doesn't have much opinion on Lu Guang's staying.

Lu Polou is not limited to this one son. It is said that there are more than ten sons and nephews, and people these days are generally fertile.

Li Yue smiled and said: "General Lu, please take care. I hope you and I won't have to fight each other in the future."

Lu Polou was stunned for a moment, her expression was a bit complicated, after she bowed her hands, she got on her horse and headed west without looking back.

Lu Guang was left staring at his back in a daze.

Annexing Yuzhou and occupying the entire Central Plains, Li Yue's confidence is getting stronger and stronger, and now he is short of time.

When he led his army back to Yecheng, Chang Wei went out of the city to see him off.

"Gong Liang can rest assured about the matter in the south. Now that the Central Plains is completely occupied, it has become the power of Wei Wu. The country cannot be left without a master for a day. Now that Duke Liang returns to Ye, he can ascend to the throne to inspire the three armies and improve the people." Hope."

Chang Wei actually persuaded him to come in.

After thinking for a while, Li Yue nodded, Guangjiliang was not suitable for the current situation.

Occupying the entire Central Plains, as long as others are not stupid, they will try every means to restrict and suppress them.

In terms of situation, Yan State and Jiangdong are allies, one south and one north, and now they are against Di Qin, so it doesn't make any sense to hide their strengths and bide their time.

An elephant cannot hide behind a tree and hope that no one can see him.

Nowadays, everyone around who has a little strength and ambition is called the king and the emperor.

On the other hand, the relationship between himself and Ran Wei can no longer be so unclear.

Otherwise, would the Jimi forces around Yecheng be loyal to Ran Wei or himself?
"Yes!" Li Yue nodded slowly.
