In Anshi City, Ye Chang did not refuse to live in the most luxurious former city lord's mansion, but his travels were simple and simple, and even the larger city lord's mansion only occupied one courtyard. "Is this what happened?" Ye Chang stared at the soldier standing in front of him. His voice was still soft and his expression looked calm, but the soldier suddenly felt a little cold. "That's it. Everything I say is true. That guy claims to be under the command of the Andong Protectorate and the Pioneer General of the Pinglu Army." The soldier said angrily: "That Fan Chongwu actually followed him. He is really ungrateful. Ye Chang was also extremely angry, but he didn't show it on his face. A mere vanguard general of the Pinglu Army dared to seize food from a tiger's mouth and steal his spoils. However, since the other party knew his identity, he still dared to do so, so he must have something to do with it. Reliance. The strength of his troops could not be concealed from the Khitan people, but they could not be concealed from the Pinglu army. The other party probably thought that he did not dare to cause a conflict. "What do you think, gentlemen?" "He looked at Zhang Hao and others. "Zhang Hao was also full of anger. The performance of Pinglu Army's people over the years has been very poor. An Lushan even disliked them, but now they dare to come to Ye Chang to seize food from the tiger's mouth. "It doesn't matter what else it is, but Fan Chongwu will definitely be captured. He violated military discipline and surrendered to others privately. He will be beheaded without mercy." Therefore, when Ye Chang asked, Zhang Hao rushed to answer. He was in charge of the law, and he was the one who dealt with the officers and soldiers who violated discipline. Therefore, although he was angry, he first answered from the perspective of his own division of labor. "Exactly, how dare these losers be so rude." Wang Changling was also furious. Because of his fame and low background, he was often ostracized by his colleagues. What he hated most were colleagues who stabbed him in the back: "In his opinion, Ye Sima should adopt a two-pronged approach. One is to send troops and generals to arrest him, and the other is to rush forward immediately." , sent a message to Chang'an, asking the emperor to severely punish such despicable people." "What the prince said is the right way. "Cen Shen also nodded in support. "What do you think, brother? "Ye Chang looked at Nan Jiyun. Nan Jiyun hesitated a little, and then said: "Sima Yu is very kind to Fan Chongwu. I think he is a cunning person, but he is not a ungrateful person. Therefore, I think he is a cunning person. He took refuge in the other party because he had no choice but to do so, and perhaps he had some ulterior motives. " "What else can be said about the inside story? It's just that I'm afraid of the enemy's strength, so I don't dare to fight, and I've lost my escort, so I don't dare to come back to see Sima." Zhang Hao snorted: "If he behaves like this, he can be forgiven. On the battlefield, who is willing to fight to the death? " When it comes to debates, even ten Nan Jiyun tied together are no match for Zhang Hao. Nan Jiyun is self-respecting and has no intention of engaging in a verbal dispute with Zhang Hao, so he glances sideways at him, stroking his beard and saying, The look in his eyes was somewhat contemptuous. Zhang Hao suddenly became furious and couldn't help but speak again: "He is so ignorant, and it is said that he covets Di Lie's daughter. For this reason, she even forgot about Sima's promotion. Such people must be punished in order to show the majesty of our army. "Ye Chang has a headache. There are only so many people in his team now, but the contradiction between civilian and military positions is already looming." After all, Zhang Hao and others were born as scholars. Although they valued Nan Jiyun and Fan Chongwu, who were born as low-level soldiers, they did not necessarily respect them. As for Nan Jiyun and others who fought hard and fought hard for their meritorious positions, they were not very convinced by those who won the official position just by shaking their fans and reciting poems. We must establish our own mechanism for cultivating military personnel and allow conflicts in the military, but we must not allow large factions that are hostile to each other, such as the Wenzhi faction and the martial arts faction, to confront each other. This would easily lead to military coups and the like. "We must thoroughly investigate Fan Chongwu's matter. If he is really afraid of the enemy's surrender, then he will be punished with a full sentence. If he still has any intentions, he will not be spared lightly." Ye Chang was thinking about the military personnel training system. Jian Jian, while talking to each other: "Even if we want to kill Fan Chongwu, we have to capture him first If we want to capture Fan Chongwu, we must fight against the Pinglu Army. Do you think we are completely torn apart, or do we still have room for leeway?" ?¡± At this moment, everyone fell silent and completely broke their faces. They wanted to eliminate this so-called Pioneer of the Pinglu Army. The next situation was beyond Ye Chang¡¯s control. This kind of decision is not easy to make. After a while, Nan Jiyun still said: "No matter what decision Ye Sima makes, I am willing to be the vanguard." Ye Chang was secretly happy in his heart. This showed his attitude, even if it caused a fight with the Pinglu Army. In the internal strife, Nan Jiyun will also be on his side. Nan Jiyun is now the number one general in Jili Prefecture and the number two figure in the military. His attitude is almost that of the military. Cen and Wang Changling's expression changed a bit, and they both tended to leave some room. It is not an easy task to make an enemy of the Lulong Army and even the Fan Yang Jiedushi behind the Lulong Army in the land of Jili Prefecture. Zhang Hao smiled and said, "Ye Sima's words were wrong." "Oh?" "You are the only one in Jili Prefecture who can make this decision. You should decide whether to fight or to make peace, and then we will These staff will advise you, General Nan and these soldiers will fight for you The handle of Tai'a cannot be handed over to others. " These words are of a high standard. Qian Mouding on the side nodded secretly. He is now considered a senior executive in Jili Prefecture, but on most issues, he sticks to his duties and never says much. Cen Shen and Wang Changling, In his opinion, he is just a man of words. Only Zhang Hao's words show the style of a strategist. "It's up to me to decide" "Exactly, if it weren't for Ye Sima's arbitrary decision, who else could be like this. ? "Zhang Hao said matter-of-factly. Ye Chang immediately understood that he had not completely gotten rid of the influence of another life after all. He had forgotten that in this life, since he was the leader of this team, he would naturally have the final decision on the future direction of this team. Quan. "Since it's my decision, then" Ye Chang was still hesitant at first, but gradually became determined. Why did he come to Liaodong to open up new territories? From a big perspective, it was for the sake of the Han people, but from a small perspective, it didn't matter. Is it just to get rid of the fate that as long as he comes up with something good, someone will come to snatch it away? When he was in the Central Plains, he was alone and surrounded by powerful enemies, so he had to support him from both sides and find ways to deal with those who had no intentions. But now in Liaodong, he has two states, more than 100,000 people, thousands of tigers, and more than 10,000 regiments. How can he still give in when facing aggression and robbery from others? ? People fight for a breath, Buddha fights for a stick of incense. Now he is just a mere vanguard general of the Lu Long Army. If he doesn't attack him head on, I'm afraid some people will think that he is weak and can be bullied, and he will dare to run away. Come to him to show off your power. "If he wants to fight, then fight." Ye Chang thought of this and felt that his thoughts suddenly became clear. He clenched his fist and said coldly: "Anyone who dares to rob my captives must die." As soon as these words came out, everyone was awe-inspiring. Even Zhang Hao did not expect that Ye Chang would make such a determination in such a short time. "In that case, I will make a plan. Zhang Hao said: "Our army has four thousand people, plus the Jian'an Prefecture Army's ten thousand, which is enough to suppress the thieves who entered Liaodong." Sima can now send an army to guard the crossing of the Liaohe River and hastily order the thieves to escape. The army rushed directly to the big stone bridge and defeated the thieves with one blow." "Will the thieves be on guard? "Otherwise, I know the intentions of the border generals. They are actually waiting and watching" Zhang Hao analyzed the psychology of the generals of the Pinglu Army for Ye Chang. The ones who crossed the Liao River this time were only Dong Qin, the vanguard of the Pinglu Army. , the leader of the team, Hou Xiyi, is just a supporting general. It's not that the Pinglu Army can't provide more men, but because the generals of the Pinglu Army are waiting and watching. If Ye Chang shows weakness, they will definitely do it. They rushed over without hesitation and devoured Ye Chang's loot, but if Ye Chang showed enough toughness and strength, they might not have the intention to completely turn against him. "Therefore, since Sima is determined to confront him tit for tat, he must not show any signs of it. "If you want to give in, you have to deal with the head first and then talk about it." "If this is the case, how should An Lushan respond? Pinglu Army is his subordinate. After the pain, An Lushan will definitely come forward." "Wang Changling said worriedly: "The Pinglu army has 37,500 people, but Fan Yang has 91,400 people. Putting the two together, the number of troops is nearly 130,000, and our army is only one-twentieth of that." " It doesn't matter, after I arrived in Liaodong, I was ordered to advise Ye Sima, and I also inquired about the news. Although Pinglu Army is under the jurisdiction of Anlu Mountain, unlike Fan Yang, Anlu Mountain draws many Pinglu Army warriors and strong horses for Fan Yang's use. Obviously, Pinglu Army does not regard Pinglu Army as its confidants. Pinglu Army The generals were afraid that he would weaken their own strength, and they were also wary of him. The Khitans were able to enter Liaodong because the Pinglu Army deliberately neglected the war. From what I can see, An Lushan may not be willing to take the lead on behalf of the Pinglu Army. What's more, An Hu'er is the most greedy person. Aren't we originally planning to share the success in capturing Anshi City? "Originally, I wanted to give it to Pinglu Army, but now I won't give it to Anlushan." Ye Chang is not ready to completely occupy Anshi Prefecture. The reason is that he currently lacks strength, especially from Lushun to Anshi City, which is nearly a thousand miles away. In this place, the supply line is relatively difficult. Even if he has a big ship, he is unable to do it. Another reason is that there is news from the north that Di Lie's army was defeated and was attacked by various forces along the way, but it may be the Khitan. Brought by people, or perhaps due to other reasons, "pox" began to become popular in the north. This was one of the reasons why Ye Chang was in a hurry to transport the captives back. This pox was actually smallpox, which was extremely contagious and almost non-existent. The treatment method, what Ye Chang can do is to isolate it and let it fend for itself. ¡°Do you think this plan is feasible? "Ye Chang is leaning towards this in his heart, but he has to make a decision on the general direction, but the details of the implementation need to be discussed with everyone. "It's a good plan. "Cen Shen was the first to support. "This plan is very good. "Wang Changling also agreed. Nan Jiyun did not express any objection this time. As long as there is a war, he does not care who the opponent is. "In that case, then Mr. Zhang, you lead an army, and I will give you a thousand people to cut off the thieves. On the way home, Nan Jiyun, I will give you two thousand men to attack immediately and kill one of those thieves."I was caught off guard," Ye Chang ordered. Everyone followed the order and left. Only Ye Chang and Shan Zhi were left in the room. Shan Zhi said, "Why don't you ask me to go out and make meritorious deeds?" "Although he is a monk, he is no different from being a secular man now. Seeing Nan Jiyun repeatedly making meritorious deeds and Ye Chang relying more and more on him, he secretly has thoughts of comparison. "Third brother, the safety of Anshi City is in danger. , but as for the third brother, how can it not be a meritorious service? "Ye Chang laughed and said. "You only know how to deal with me. " Shanzhi muttered, but when he saw the faint worry on Ye Chang's face, he stopped saying anything. Ye Chang was not worried about not being able to win this battle. From the number of people coming from the other side, he could draw the same conclusion as Zhang Hao. Judgment is that the generals of Pinglu Army have no real determination to break up. Hou Xiyi is just a test. What he is really worried about is acne. As a terminal disease, he himself has no immunity to it. I just heard that it was in the Gaimouzhou area, but who knows if the Khitans brought it to the south? "Send Liang Dong to come and follow me to patrol the city." Liang Dong is the "acting city lord", and he has the foundation of Anshi City. Ji Qian was completely attached to the Jili Prefecture Army, so when he heard that Ye Chang was summoned, he immediately ran over. Even Ye Chang himself felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw his servile look. Look, tell me what you did, have you done it well? " "Okay, okay, lime and white silk are all ready. I ordered five hundred young men in the city to clean up the garbage in the city. I also dug pits in remote areas outside the city to fill up the garbage." "Where are the cows? Have you found any cows with acne? " Liang Dong muttered secretly in his heart. He really didn't know what Ye Sima's plan was. In addition to cleaning the streets of Anshi City, he also wanted to look for cows with acne. However, there were also many cattle raised outside Anshi City. Cattle and horses, especially when the Khitan people went south, brought a lot of livestock and kept them on the banks of the Liao River. He responded in a low voice: "I found them, there are sixteen cows with acne. " Ye Chang nodded and felt a little relieved. However, he didn't know how to breed cowpox. He had to drive all the cows back and conduct experiments again in Jili Prefecture. He couldn't help but feel some regret in his heart. Smallpox He had long known about the power that was raging in ancient times, and had originally planned to start studying the vaccination of cowpox after the situation in Liaodong was stabilized and the basic medical system was established. However, he never thought that God would not be kind, and even before he completed the preparations, he had already Acne appeared. He looked at Liang Dong's cautious appearance and said: "These cows are of great importance, so you can keep them alive for me." " "The villain just thinks that there are sixteen more cow ancestors. Liang Dong said. Ye Chang smiled and asked again: "How many people are willing to move south with me?" " Although he was prepared to give up Anshi City, Ye Chang was not prepared to give up the entire Anshi City. He wanted to take away as many of the population in the city as possible. Hearing his question, Liang Dong revealed He looked embarrassed and cried out in pain: "The villain has also tried his best, but it's hard to leave his homeland. These people didn't escape when the Khitans came. Who is willing to move now? The villain finally managed to convince more than two hundred households, but less than a thousand people were willing to move south with Sima. Unless you¡¯re a villain and don¡¯t try your best, it¡¯s really too difficult. "
