After declining Li Dawan's invitation to play another round, Xu Mu walked to the backyard of the palace at night, sat under the plum tree, and dug out the secret message left by Jia Zhou.
As he thought, the content in the secret message was related to Jia Zhou's plan. The matter was serious, and Jia Zhou's caution was not unreasonable.
Holding the letter, Xu Mu read it carefully for a long time, and finally let out a sigh of relief. If he was in Shu at that time, it was very likely that he wanted to stop Jia Zhou.
But it has to be said that Jia Zhou's death plan was almost a perfect success. The next thing is how to use it most effectively as a heavy blow.
It's a pity that in future military discussions, that wise military advisor with a wooden stick in the world will no longer be able to discuss with him.
"Xu Lang." Just as Xu Mu was thinking, he noticed Jiang Caiwei walking over. Put a big cloak carefully on his body.
"Is Xu Qiao asleep?"
"I fell asleep earlier, and then I thought of the old military advisor and Mr. Zhuge. I suddenly had a nightmare and woke up crying."
Xu Mu sighed and squeezed Jiang Caiwei's hand.
Although more than ten days have passed since Jia Zhou's incident, there are still many people in Chengdu who spontaneously pay homage to him every day. In order to commemorate Jia Zhou, the students of the General Hall wrote many volumes on military management and burned them in front of Jia Zhou's general temple.
"Xu Lang, please forgive me."
"It's okay." Xu Mu nodded. The knot in my heart is opened, and I have to move forward after all. There is not much time left for Xishu to make a comeback.
Jiang Caiwei tilted her head and slowly leaned on Xu Mu's shoulder.
"Mr. Xu, these days, Erlang of Xishu has been burying his bones in the mountains. Sister Lian and Xi Niang, let me ask if you can gather some women's girls to practice longbows like in Xujiazhuang and protect the family together. Defend the country.”
"Okay." Xu Mu smiled happily.
Unlike Beiyu, in Western Shu, girls who are willing to study can also enter private schools. Of course, Xu Mu doesn't expect to use a women's army, but his desire to protect his family and country deserves encouragement.
…
The next morning, he sat on the throne again. Even though there were Yin Husi, Hu Gonggu and others below, Jia Zhou was the only one missing. For a while, Xu Mu was a little uncomfortable.
"Yin Hu, how is Han Jiu doing?"
"Under the treatment of Divine Doctor Chen, he has slowly woken up."
Xu Mu nodded.
"Night Owl, does the Lord have someone to choose?"
Xu Mu hesitated and shook his head. Over the years, except for Chen Jiaqiao at the beginning, Cao Hong was in charge of the rest, while Jia Zhou, who was in Chengdu, coordinated the overall situation.
"Lord, I recommend someone." Yin Hu cupped his hands and said.
"Which one?"
"Xia'er Duo Xiang Master, Shangguan Shu. My suggestion is to combine Xia'er Duo and Ye Xiao into one army. The iron execution platform in Beiyu has been growing in recent times and has attracted many martial arts masters. As a Confrontation, the combination of the two is an excellent choice.”
Xu Mu thought for a while. What Yin Hu said is not unreasonable. In recent times, even under Jia Zhou's nose, the iron torture platform can still penetrate. It can be seen how crazy it is.
Of course, it is also related to the great potential of Beiyu. There are aristocratic families in the temple, and in the rivers and lakes, in addition to Xiaer Duo, there are many masters of various kinds, who are used for victory.
"Six heroes, let Shangguan Shu go to Chengdu."
He, the chief helmsman of Xiaer Helm, calculated the time and found that it had already exceeded the three-year period. It's time to return the position of helmsman to Li Xiaoyao.
Judging from the current situation, whether it is the Xia'er or the rebels in Xia'er's rudder, they all have their hearts set on Xi Shu. It was such a wise choice to risk the world's disapproval to pay homage to Li Zhiqiu.
But at this time, Xu Mu still had a problem in his heart.
The commander can choose Shang Guanshu, but who should be chosen to coordinate the affairs? When the time comes, when he leads his troops on an expedition or leaves Chengdu, there will eventually be someone sitting in Chengdu to take charge of the overall situation.
Yin Hu should be suitable. But as the third planner of Xi Shu, Xu Mu wanted to take Yin Hu with him as a staff officer accompanying the army.
Yin Hu raised his head and seemed to see Xu Mu's problem.
"My lord, although Military Master Jia has passed away, he has left an answer."
"Six Heroes, what do you mean-"
"That's him."
Xu Mu fell into deep thought.
"My lord still needs to stay in Chengdu for a while, so why not let him take over slowly? One day, I believe, this son will be famous all over the world."
"He still needs to learn."
"During the study period, I had the personal biography of Military Advisor Jia, plus the strategies and strategies for dealing with Beiyu. I feel... he will really be great in the future."
"If the lord is not at ease, he will use a false person as a cover."
Xu Mu understood what Yin Hu meant, and at the same time, he was also considering what Jia Zhou had left. In fact, there is no conflict.
"Six Heroes, if they are just empty, should they have a name?"
"It is rumored that the lord brought back a person from the Western Regions and worshiped him as a military advisor, calling him 'Qingfeng'."
"Six Heroes, have you already thought about this?"
"Military Master Jia likes the green color the most, and the theory of phoenix also means nirvana and rebirth. If you leave this person in vain, you can confuse Fulong's eyes. Of course, the lord needs to protect this information and must not let the iron torture platform detect it. go."
Xu Mu nodded, "I still have confidence in the Chengdu Palace. Six Heroes, according to your wishes, in the past few days, Qingfeng's name will be spread first."
Yin Hu bowed and cupped his hands.
"By the way, my lord, there is one more thing. The traitor Huang Zhizhou, according to the information passed back, has been married to an aristocratic family in the inner city, and has been promoted to the Changyang Central Guard Army."
Xu Mu's face was expressionless. But deep down in my heart, it was already in turmoil. Jia Zhou's legacy plan was almost perfect. Even Yin Hu in front of him couldn't see the flaw.
"Six Heroes, how is the Yanzhou rebels doing now?"
"The rebels have been defeated one after another, leaving only a few small Guancheng cities. Looking at it, it won't be long before they flee to the Rouran Grassland. But the King of Beiyu has already issued a message to the world, threatening to break through The Rouran people’s old home.”
"It's really like his temperament."
Although it doesn't take much time, at first glance, the rebellion in Yanzhou is almost over. There are still some scattered small groups of rebels throughout Hebei, and they should be quickly defeated by Xiao Qing.
When it comes to fighting, Uncle Chang is not ordinary fierce.
"Six Heroes, I hurried back to Chengdu in order to hurry up, but I didn't explain some things. Write a letter for me and tell Chen Zhong and Chao Yi to cooperate with the Silk Road. In two months, both sides of Liangzhou and the Western Regions will Merchants, wait until they have built a post house halfway, and then start trading."
"My lord, what if Beiyu refuses to open its gates for trade?"
"Of course Chang Sheng wanted to stop him, but he couldn't stop him after all." Xu Mu frowned, "Wen Long's last plan to capture Wuzhou gave me another idea."
"Six Heroes, you also know that the most important thing in Xishu right now is to accumulate various resources before the war."
"My lord, what do you mean..."
"Building sea ships and sailing long distances. After discovering land islands and large islands, it is impossible to say that you can also create a trade route. In these days, you can think of some ways to collect interesting anecdotes about overseas. I will take a good look at them. Fan."
