Fuyang County, according to Xu Mu's wishes, had long been allocated to the Pingman people for management. Of course, fearing that the plain barbarians would not be good at political affairs, Xu Mu specially transferred two generals to help manage the affairs. Waiting for the day when there are more talents in Shuzhou, we can send some over.
Xu Mu was a little worried when he first entered the city. Now it seems that Mrs. Luan Yu is worthy of her reputation as a heroine, and she really manages the towns around Fuyang in an orderly manner.
After running in with Dongfang Jing on his back, Si Hu just let him down, immediately grabbed the chopsticks and threw himself at the long table in the main hall of the governor's mansion.
Only half of the sheep bones were retrieved, and Si Hu froze on the spot.
"My lord, I have long heard that I, the invincible general of Shuzhou, is the bravest in the world. When I see you today, I am worthy of my reputation." Dongfang Jing, who was left aside by Si Hu, still spoke elegantly.
If it weren't for Dongfang Jing's presence, Xu Mu would have loved to fly over and enjoy another round of explosive chestnuts.
"Bo Lie, I will take you there."
"Thank you, my lord."
"Brother Mu, no, no more!" Si Hu pointed at the half piece of sheep bone on the chopsticks.
"Sit down, Long Gong has already gone to get the meat. Si Hu, you are now a general after all. If you continue to be so gluttonous, I will remove you from the position of general."
Hearing this, the very nervous Si Hu paled and hurriedly sat down seriously.
"Bo Lie, please have a glass of wine to warm yourself up."
Dongfang Jing did not refuse, picked up the wine glass and drank with Xu Mu.
"From now on in Shuzhou, I will have to rely on Bo Lie more."
The person introduced by Jia Zhou must have no problem with the hardware. Even if the last champion is a little less capable, he is more than enough to be an honest county guard.
But Xu Mu hopes that Dongfang Jing can bring him more surprises. At least, the skill of digging fishing holes outside Chengdu is enough to show his cleverness.
"Lord!"
"General of the Central Plains!"
Just as Xu Mu was thinking about it, the door that was slightly hidden from the wind was suddenly pushed open with a loud bang. Turning around when he heard the voice, Xu Mu discovered that Mrs. Luan Yu and Meng Huo had already run over happily.
Behind him, Gong Gou, who was carrying mutton, and seven or eight generals including Yu Wen and Ma Yi, all followed suit.
"Everyone, sit down." Xu Mu said with a smile.
At this time, the dozen or so people in front of him were all Shuzhou elites who were about to join the crusade against the Hubarbarians.
He was very happy and relieved.
"Today, I would like to introduce you to you." Xu Mu looked at Dongfang Jing who was sitting next to him with a serious face, "This person is a great talent recommended by Military Advisor Jia. He will follow me into the mountains to defeat the tiger barbarians. "
"Dongfang greets you all."
"I've seen the military advisor." More than ten people present raised their hands and bowed.
This scene made Dongfang Jing slightly stunned and also smiled.
"Everyone, sit down together."
"please--"
More than ten people sat down, and the mutton soup in the pot was already smelling fragrant.
Si Hu swallowed his saliva and looked pitifully left and right. When he found that no one had touched his chopsticks, he had to pretend to wipe them.
"Come, I'll toast the military commander." Yu Wen stood up and held the wine glass. When he found that Dongfang Jing didn't move, his face was stunned for a moment.
Xu Mu sighed in his heart. Thinking back to those days, when Dongfang Jingdian became the number one scholar in the examination, he was so high-spirited, but who could have expected that he would suffer such a disaster.
"General Yu, I am a lame man." Dongfang Jing's expression remained as usual.
After saying this sentence, the atmosphere in the room condensed for a while, but soon it became lively and lively.
"To be honest, military advisor, I, Yu Wen, have been called a deaf man since I was a child. I fought with others when I was young, and I have become somewhat deaf in my left ear. Also, if you look at the stupid guy next to you, we all call him Silly Tiger."
"Brother Yu, I will beat you."
"Military advisor, please don't be like this. I am also disabled. Thanks to my master's recognition as my clan brother, I am alive today." Gongou also stood up, straightened his hunched back, and raised his glass to the east.
"Come, I'll pay homage to the military advisor." Xu Mu also raised his glass, facing the east.
These are the people he brought out. Even though most of them came from rough backgrounds, they are still good men no matter what.
More than ten people stood up, raised their glasses to the east, raised their heads, and drank the whole drink in one gulp.
Dongfang Jing's expression was filled with emotion, as if it were placed in another place. He has no merit and will definitely not receive such treatment. He suddenly realized that this trip to Zhao Confucius Temple was indeed a good bet.
Put down the wine cup.
Everyone present sat down again.
Si Hu looked around and found that no one had touched the chopsticks, so he hurriedly pretended to wipe the rim of the bowl.
"My lord, the meat and bones are almost gone, why don't we use chopsticks together." Yu Wen said with a smile, "Wait a minute, I will give the military advisor a big piece, don't let the stupid tiger eat it all."
"Don't be impatient, cook it longer and remove the odor."
Si Hu reached for the splayed chopsticks in front of the pot and took them back tremblingly.
"Bo Lie, what suggestions do you have for this round of cutting down the tiger barbarians?" Xu Mu took the boiled wine and poured it for Dongfang Jing himself.
Dongfang Jing thought for a moment and said, "My lord, this time we must drive away the tiger barbarians, rather than killing them to death."
"Why is that?" Xu Mu was startled. The tigers and barbarians have brought harm to Shuzhou, but for hundreds of years, every loser in Shuzhou, no matter how soft or hard they are, will not like the tigers and barbarians.
"Kill them all." Dongfang Jing said in a serious tone, "Although the tiger barbarians are fierce in nature, there are more than 200,000 tiger barbarians, relying on the deep forests and high mountains. To be honest, it is impossible for the lord to kill them all."
"Moreover, regardless of whether he is a foreigner or not, if the master kills the young and the old, he will definitely leave a bad reputation."
"Military advisor, we can't keep these tiger barbarians forever. This is not a good thing for the entire Shuzhou." Yu Wen asked urgently.
Xu Mu nodded. Yu Wen's thoughts were exactly what he wanted to express.
"I know." Dongfang Jing remained calm, "Someone has a plan, which is called the plan to drive away guests."
"Bo Lie, what do you say?"
Not only Xu Mu, but also many Shuzhou generals present looked at Dongfang Jing expectantly.
Of course, except Si Hu who was looking at the soup.
"The tiger barbarians migrated from abroad thousands of years ago and entered Shuzhou and thrived to this day. Beyond the south of Shuzhou, there are barren forests and swamps, and the land is extremely barren."
"It's still winter, and the tiger barbarians are starving. My lord can do this, pushing three groups of baggage up the mountain, and relying on the army's logistics. Among them, most of them are dry food, wine and water, and then they are smeared with poisonous powder."
"The tiger barbarians will investigate and find out, and they will definitely rob it. As long as the tiger barbarians have a lot of poisons, they will be able to win the first round of the battle into the mountain."
Listening, Xu Mu's eyes lit up. He and Yu Wen's previous intention was not to push the luggage up the mountain. After all, it was deep in the mountains in winter, and no one else would think about pushing the luggage up the mountain. But Dongfang Jing clearly went against the grain and made plans.
If we say, Jia Zhou's strategy is to seek stability in danger. Then this Dongfang Jing is better at making judgments.
"After successfully entering the mountain, Shuzhou's 40,000-strong army can be divided into six groups."
"Sixth way?" Everyone present looked stunned. How can 40,000 people be divided into six groups?
Dongfang Jing's tone remained unchanged, "That's right. The two frontal groups on the left and right each have nearly 20,000 troops. The other four groups each have only a thousand troops. There is no need for a fierce battle. They bring more golden war drums to bluff and defeat the two. More than 100,000 tiger barbarians rushed to one place. Then, they drove out of Shuzhou Nanlin."
"After that, in the ten-mile valley outside the Nanlin, we can build a beacon tower and station thousands of troops. And in the Nanlin area, we can introduce refugees, build counties and open up wasteland. It only takes twenty years of reproduction, and the rear of Shuzhou will be as stable as Iron wall.”
"I still need some time for the specific layout." Dongfang Jing was silent for a while, and then spoke seriously, "My lord, please don't blame me and the generals."
After a pause, the whole room suddenly burst into bursts of applause.
Even Si Hu put down his chopsticks and pretended to shout along.
"Okay, okay!"
