Farming in the Bianshui River Basin is in full swing.
The scouts spread the news that Chen Liu had six field officials and four civilians in the field to all parts of the north and south of the river.
Any news requires a certain period of shock. People in Hebei were skeptical and did not make any move.
Yanzhou could still survive under Liu Qi's governance, and not many people took refuge in Heiyun Mountain.
Li Yue didn't find it strange at all. This time he just said hello first. Shi Zun seized the throne and everyone expected him to return. He also granted amnesty to the world. He behaved like a wise king. The people of Hu and Jin had high expectations for him. Hebei was temporarily calm.
However, this calmness was broken before it lasted even half a month.
Shichong, the king of Pei who was guarding Jicheng, was the first to jump out. He led an army of 50,000 and attacked Ye from Ji. He sent a message to Yan and Zhao. The tribes from all directions, fearing that the world would not be in chaos, gathered to respond. As far as Changshan, more than 100,000 Hu and Jin scholars gathered. .
Shi Bao, who was guarding Chang'an, was also ready to take action. He could not kill Zuo Chang Shi Shi Guang, Sima Cao Yao and more than 100 people who could not follow him to raise an army, so he forcibly raised an army.
However, the wealthy people in Guanzhong were disgusted with his greed and cruelty, and knew that he was bound to fail, so they ordered Sima Xun, the governor of Liangzhou in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Sima Xun immediately led his troops out of Luo Valley, captured Hou Zhao's Great Wall garrison, and set up camp at Xinggou, more than 200 miles away from Chang'an.
In addition, Liaodong and Jiangdong are also accumulating troops.
The news coming back from all directions became more and more urgent.
"Shi Hu acted rebelliously. All the clans in the country had been resentful for many years but did not dare to express it. Now that Shi Hu dies, all the clans will rise up!" Cui Jin followed Li Yue after returning to Chenliu.
The contradiction between Jie and Zhao has long been acute and irreconcilable.
Not only were the oppressed Jin people dissatisfied, but the Qiang, Di, Xianbei, and Xiongnu were also dissatisfied. At that time, they were afraid of Shihu's cruelty and did not dare to move. Now that Shihu is dead, all of them are ambitious.
And Shi Zun is not a figure who can turn the tide. From his appointment of clan kings, we can see that he is constantly compromising.
Li Yue would think of Shi Min who had charged into battle together, and turned to Shi Zun, and indeed gained huge benefits.
The commander-in-chief of the Chinese and foreign armies, the recorder of affairs, and the Duke of Wuxing County all gave him everything he could except the position of prince.
"They are messing with them, and we are doing ours. The scouts came yesterday to report that out of the twenty-nine counties, only seventeen counties obeyed my orders, and the remaining twelve counties turned a deaf ear! Do they really think that I, a Yanzhou shepherd, dare not use the knife? Huh?" Li Yue said murderously.
The opportunity had been given to them, but they did not cherish it, and even several counties in the south and east took refuge with Zhang Yu.
Cui Jin pondered for a moment, "The world is in turmoil. Chu Pei, the general of the Jin Dynasty and the Northern Army, has stationed troops in Pengcheng. All the counties in the Central Plains are waiting and watching!"
Li Yue felt helpless. No matter how messy the Sima family was, it was still orthodox in the eyes of the world.
Wang Pai, the Yangzhou governor of Jie Zhao, surrendered Huaibei directly to Jiangdong, which shows the influence of orthodoxy.
This is someone who openly resists Heiyun Mountain, but secretly there are many who have second thoughts, and are forced to surrender due to the situation.
Li Yue's foundation is the Black Cloud Army, and his foundation is the Nanqihuo Army. Only they are loyal to him.
"I am willing to fight for the general!" Cui Jin said with cupped hands.
"Then Brother Lao." Li Yue remembered that in history, the Jiangbei Expedition, except for Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty a few decades later, all ended in disastrous defeats, and Chu Pei should also have suffered a disastrous defeat.
Cui Jin walked forward, and Yue Ji sneaked in and stared at Li Yue.
After following me for the past two years, I have become more and more talented.
"Is there a flower on my face?" Li Yue said with a smile.
Yue Ji's bright eyes flickered, "My little sister went to the mountains a few days ago and met some interesting people. She listened to them talk about the current situation. Today I want to tell my brother."
"Taoist again? Don't associate with them anymore. These are not good people. Be careful they kidnap you." Li Yue felt dizzy after hearing this.
I am so busy, how can I have time to pay attention to this?
Yue Ji often takes people to the mountain to collect medicine, and she has a good relationship with the Taoist priests in the mountain.
"Brother, that's nonsense. These are well-educated people with quite a lot of insight." Yue Ji looked serious.
"Your brother, I'm very busy. If you don't have anything else to do, you should go and rest early."
"Oh, brother, listen to me." Yue Ji directly blocked Li Yue's path.
The surrounding guards knew that the two were closely related and did not stop them.
Li Yue looked at this girl, who seemed to have rarely been so serious. He thought in his heart that someone might be passing on her words to him. There are still many masters who live in seclusion these days.
"Give you half the time to burn incense."
"Chenliu is sandwiched between the north and the south, surrounded by powerful enemies, with a depleted population, and is not a place to establish a life. However, Guanzhong is a fertile wilderness thousands of miles away, and the weak, greedy and violent people will not be able to defend it. Why don't my brother lead his army into Guanzhong? Weihan was strong and the danger of the river was strong, first from the west and then to the south, and wiped out the followers of Ma Qiu, Wang Lang, and Wang Zao, then attacked Sima Xun in Hanzhong, and then moved to Shuzhong, sitting and watching the chaos of the various tribes in Hebei. Ten years of gathering, and ten years of lessons. , to strengthen Qin's power, when the Central Plains is weak, we can lead an army of 100,000 to march eastward and defeat Guandong." Yue Ji shook her head and said.
Li Yue shook his head after hearing this, "Which scholar with all kinds of faces told you this? The strength of Weihan is strong, and the danger of the river is strong. First west and then south. Do you think Yao Yizhong and Pu Hong are just decorations? They are in Guanzhong The base of the Black Cloud Army is in the two states of Yan and Yu south of the river. If I raise my troops to march westward, how many people will be willing to follow me? This is a pedantic statement."
The Black Cloud Army has the current situation of the Black Cloud Army. If it breaks away from its roots and runs to Guanzhong, it is afraid that it will be immediately submerged among the major forces.
Although Chenliu is not a good place, it is still his own territory, and the Heiyun Army has made a name for itself.
Go to Guanzhong and start everything from scratch?
Yue Ji hesitated and said: "They also said, they also said that my brother will definitely lose in Chenliu."
"The female student is not Zhongliu, her elbows are turned outwards. Whether the Black Cloud Army wins or loses is not decided by them. You can reply to them. If you want to serve me, you can come directly to Chenliu. If you don't want to be used by me, Just stay on the mountain and watch."
If it weren't for Yue Ji's sake, Li Yue would have really wanted to lead his troops up the mountain and burn down their lair.
You don't even look at who is giving advice.
Yue Ji's face turned red, "There are also people who have different opinions and think that my brother can turn things around."
"Oh? What did he say?" Li Yue became slightly interested.
"Brother collects the begging troops for his own use. He relies on the south of the river and is eyeing the north of the river. If the timing is right, there is still a three-point chance."
"Only three points?" Li Yue's heart moved. What this person said was somewhat reliable.
"Based on the current situation, it is less than three points, only one point. However, he said that my brother started from a weak team in the Heiyun Mountain area and became famous all over the world in two years. It cannot be speculated by common sense."
"This sounds like some words. What's that person's name?" Li Yue's heart moved and he suddenly became excited.
Yue Ji said: "Meng Kuang."
As soon as he heard that it was not the person he was thinking of, his interest waned. Li Yue had never had a good impression of boastful scribes.
At this time, Zhou Qian came in a hurry, and Li Yue didn't have time to think about it, "Please invite this person down the mountain when you have time."
Yue Ji was dissatisfied and said: "This man is a great talent. He should follow the example of the Lord Shu and visit the thatched cottage three times."
"Well, since my brother has some free time, I will definitely go look for him."
Yue Ji is a smart person. If she takes things seriously, she must not be a simple person.
