Du Shuisheng smiled nostalgically, and then said, "Things will be simple from now on. With one victory after another, General Meng's reputation in Zhaoshui City is increasing day by day. Zhaoshui City's reputation as a strong army even surpassed He Yucheng, then General Meng married the daughter of General Sun, the admiral of the navy army. Since then, peace has come to Zhaoshui City. There are even fewer Nanyi invaders from the north, so that many refugees dare to bravely cross the Mianshui River southward. The wasteland was reclaimed on the side of Shiwanda Mountain. At that time, Zhaoshui City was so peaceful that it seemed like it was no longer a border town..."
Du Shuisheng's expression gradually became serious. He no longer looked at Luochuan, but lowered his eyes slightly and said, "These peaceful days lasted until last year, when great changes suddenly occurred. First, the old eunuch suddenly secretly ordered General Meng to go north to plot Anling. General Meng had to be ordered to go... When he returned with his soldiers, he was secretly taken away by ignorant people before they arrived at Yicheng, and was eventually imprisoned in a sky prison. Zhaoshui City was left without an owner for a while, rumors spread, and undercurrents surged. Then, Hetama City Wang Hui was ordered to reorganize Zhaoshui City's elite, so that among the current 50,000 troops in Zhaoshui City, about 20,000 were actually the former Hetama Army, which further tore apart the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the Zhaoshui Army."
"Then, the position of the governor in Yicheng changed. The new governor placed some cronies in the Zhaoshui army, which further alienated the officers." Du Shuisheng's voice was already deep, "Finally, the arrival of the veteran general Sun Miao, whose powerful His style and a series of actions against the powerful local families in Zhaoshui City have completely opened a huge wound in this originally impregnable city."
He looked up at Luochuan and bowed to the end, "Originally, Lord Taishou, these things can be solved slowly by taking some time and using some means, but when Nanyi came, Heyu City was destroyed, and countless people were displaced. Zhaoshui City and Yicheng are in danger. Today's world does not give Yongchang such a chance. Such Yongchang is already terminally ill and cannot save himself."
Luo Chuan asked in a deep voice, "So Mr. Du came to me here. What do you want to ask for?"
Du Shuisheng raised his head and glanced at Luo Chuan again. This time he lifted up his hem and knelt down. He raised his chest and raised his head, looking at Luo Chuan without wavering in his eyes. "Wan Sheng, I beg you, the Grand Administrator, to take charge of Yongchang!!"
Luo Chuan was silent for a moment, stared into Du Shuisheng's eyes, and said word by word, "Mr. Du, Luo is not a hypocritical person. Although this Yongchang only has two cities left, and although it faces Nanyi, it can Luo is indeed determined to take charge of Yongchang, but he just wants to take charge of Yongchang, especially as soon as possible. The difficulty is still not small. Since Mr. Du thinks Zhao Nanpeng's strategy is nothing but nonsense, in Mr. Du's mind, who can be calmed down? Yongchang’s best strategy?”
"It happens when you are born late!" Du Shuisheng said decisively.
Luo Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and this time he looked at the scholar in front of him with a somewhat unkind look, "Mr. Du, you came here at night. The reason why you can see me is because Senior Wan Song came with you. He is an elder that I respect very much, so I gave you a lot of time to tell those stories, but if you think Luo can be bullied because of this... it would be a pity."
Du Shuisheng's expression did not change, he still knelt on the ground and said upright, "Wansheng never regrets anything he does. If the strategy he proposes this time cannot help the prefect quickly pacify Yongchang, Wansheng is willing to take his head to apologize!"
Qin Wansong, who was standing silently in the corner of the tent, was about to speak when he heard the words, but stopped when he saw Qian Xue shaking her head at him.
"Okay!" Luo Chuan snorted, "Then Luo will just listen! Siqi, get a chair for Mr. Du."
After hearing this, Siqi left the tent and returned a moment later carrying a chair.
Du Shuisheng took the chair and sat down facing Luochuan. He put his hands on his knees and sat upright, "Now Yongchang, as the prefect said, is only a land of two cities. Yicheng has abundant soldiers and food, and there are many masters. Zhao Nanpeng is here He did not lie about this matter. If the governor wants to attack by force, even if he finally captures this city, he will suffer a lot of damage. He will not be able to go south in a short time. It will be difficult to go to Heyu City to see the city again. It's more difficult than ever, so attacking Yicheng by force is the next best option. Encircling it in chaos will take a long time, and the logistics requirements are too high. Moreover, even if Yicheng is finally captured, it will never be possible to restore stability in a short time. These are important for today's It is not advisable to leave the county, so it is at best a middle-of-the-road strategy. As for the best strategy...
....It attacks the heart. "
"Yicheng is the Yicheng of Meng Jiaoyang, the new prefect of Yongchang," Du Shuisheng said eloquently. "But this Meng Jiaoyang is cowardly by nature, has many plans and shortcomings, is extreme and conceited, suspicious and difficult to make decisions. If the situation is okay, he will It must be a lot of power play, but if the situation collapses to the point where it is now, it would be strange if he doesn't want to leave some escape route for himself, or a way to survive. And the current situation can give him Yongchang Meng's way of survival. There are not many people here, and the most trustworthy among them is you, the prefect of Li County!"
"As long as the prefect is willing to give the Meng family of Yongchang a stable present," Du Shuisheng also stared into Luochuan's eyes, "a future where they do not lose their wealth and may even allow their descendants to make a comeback, let Meng Jiaoyang I feel that he is not choosing a way out for himself, but enduring the humiliation for the entire Meng family. He is doing what the Jiang family in Shanbei County has done for the entire Yongchang and even the people of the human race. In this case, will such a choice be difficult? Lord Prefect, it is not easy to capture Yicheng, but it should not be difficult to capture Meng Jiaoyang!"
Luo Chuan was noncommittal. When Du Shuisheng saw that Luo Chuan did not express his position, he continued, "As long as Meng Jiaoyang is willing to surrender, the gate of Yicheng will be opened. But taking over Yicheng does not pacify Yicheng, let alone control Yicheng. Secondly, First, Yicheng's army needs to be reorganized, and Zhao Junwei is naturally one of the strong ones. No one needs to say more. Second, Yicheng's strong men, especially the ignorant ones, need to be subdued. If they can be incorporated into the ANBU, or like the autumn wind, Generally speaking, becoming another force in the hands of the prefect is a big help, and testing whether this force is of the same mind as the prefect is the third thing, purging the civil servants and nobles of Yicheng... "
He paused slightly and said in a cold tone, "Let Mongmo do it. According to the order on Zhao Nanpeng's list, kill each family one by one until Zhao Nanpeng himself is killed. In this way, Mongmo will lose the foundation for committing evil in Yongchang, and those who are each other In the family that has been entangled and fighting for hundreds of years, the most active group will disappear from now on, and the rest will be in decline. After this battle, they will definitely be trembling. Afterwards, the prefect will randomly find a disobedient person from among the ignorant. He took it out and killed him in public, and put all the responsibility on his head, then the matter had nothing to do with the prefect. In this way, Yicheng was really controlled by the prefect in a short period of time, even as the prefect The important transit point on the way south can also be kept stable!"
"As for Zhaoshui City..." Du Shuisheng was silent for a long time this time, as if he was making a final balance, and finally pursed his lips and said, "As long as the prefect is willing to deign to meet these two people in person after he takes over Yicheng, Zhaoshui City is the toughest knife that the Grand Administrator has nailed on the southern frontier of Yongchang!"
"A knife that can check and balance each other and be as stable as a mountain!!"
"Two children at home have been sick recently. It's not easy to be a parent. It's really not easy."
