The next morning, 300,000 imperial guards guarded Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty and thousands of civil and military officials who left Linshuo Palace and drove to Liaodong.

Yang Yuanqing, the general manager of Youzhou, and Li Yuan, the temporary prefect, sent Yang Guang past Bao Shui, and then returned to Youzhou City.

"Envoy Li, as soon as the army left, Zhuo County finally calmed down. Tell me what we should do next?"

On the way back to the city, Yang Yuanqing rode a horse and walked slowly with Li Yuan, discussing the next step.

Li Yuan looked at the endless fields that were deserted, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It should be the busy farming season now, but look at these lands, hundreds of miles of land are deserted, what should I do in the summer? In my opinion,

Find a way to mobilize farmers to plant something! Otherwise, there will be famine in Zhuo County in summer and people will be unstable, which will affect the overall situation of the Liaodong Battle!"

"In fact, it has been left in the desert since the previous year. Many troops and civilians have been stationed for more than a year. Most of the local farmers in Zhuo County have concentrated to the west of the Yongji River. This land of hundreds of miles has been requisitioned by the court and is now owned by the government. I

It is suggested that Envoy Li can gather refugees to cultivate the land, and the government will exempt them from rent, which can not only restore the land, but also concentrate the refugees to avoid their lots of work. What does Envoy Li think?"

Li Yuan nodded, "This is a feasible solution, but I lack someone in my hands."

Yang Yuanqing laughed and said, "Isn't it easy to ask for people? Tomorrow I will transfer 500 soldiers to Li Envoy and listen to Li Envoy's orders."

Li Yuan was overjoyed, "Then I would like to thank General Yang."

"Your instructors don't have to be polite. I'm not only Li, but I have a responsibility to stabilize the situation in Zhuo County."

The two were quite intimate, but they did not mention the past. At this time, Li Yuan asked with concern: "Master Yang, what is the statement after the last assassination?"

"It's in vain. At that time, Prefect Cui wrote a memorial to report to the emperor. It was as if nothing had happened."

"I know a little about this."

Li Yuan pondered for a moment: "At that time, the emperor asked the seven ministers of the cabinet to discuss this matter. I heard that the final result was that the seven ministers of the cabinet rejected the memorial of the prefect Cui. They believed that the evidence for accusing the Yuan family was insufficient."

"Actually, I knew that the Yuan family had nothing to do with the Yuan family. If the Yuan family wanted to assassinate me, the assassin would not have any Yuan family tokens, and Yuan Min would not be in the forefront. It must have been not done by the Yuan family."

"Can it be the rioters like Wang Baxu and Lu Mingyue?" Li Yuan asked again.

Yang Yuanqing smiled, "It is also possible. When it comes to the rioters, I should consider taking advantage of the opportunity of the emperor's northern expedition to Liaodong. To purge these two bandits, they must not let them grow up in Youzhou."

While the two were talking, two knights rushed towards the front, and the horses were very fast. Yang Yuanqing could see clearly that they were two young players, and there was a young general behind them. From a distance, they heard them shouting: "Dad!"

Li Yuan stroked his beard and laughed, "This is my two teenage sons Yuanji and Xuanba are here."

Yang Yuanqing was so excited that Li Yuanji and Li Xuanba came? Did he know that Li Yuan had a sick son named Xuanba in history. He died at the age of sixteen or seventeen. Is this young man in front of him?

Two young generals rushed over, one tall and the other short, only twelve or three years old, one in front was nearly six feet tall, with a pair of leopard eyes, dark skin, wearing a golden crown, thin silver armor, holding a hand

The man with Fangtian Painted Ji was Li Yuanji, the third son of Li Yuan, who was thirteen years old this year. He studied under Changsun Sheng, was skilled in bows and horses, and had excellent martial arts skills.

Yang Yuanqing had heard of him, and was very famous in the capital, with a nickname called "Little Lu Bu". Although "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was later written, folk legends about Lu Bu were circulated in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

The man behind him was half a head shorter than Li Yuanji, with a sharp-mouthed cheek, a yellow face, and a sick-looking face. He was a little deformed, with a very small head, a very wide shoulder, and a thick arms, making him look extremely powerful. He was Li Yuan

The fourth son of Li Xuanba is only twelve years old this year. He is born with brute force and has a nickname called "Disease Thunder God". His pair of weapons are Thunder Hammers. Because of his youth, his two Thunder Hammers are only heavy.

Hundred pounds.

Li Xuanba is a fetal disease with congenital deficiency, and was treated by the famous doctor Sun Simiao. The disease was cured, but the sequelae left by congenital deficiency could not be cured, which made him deformed and his mind a little dull. However, he had the talent for martial arts practice and was

Yu Zhongwen took a fancy to him and accepted him as his disciple at the age of five and learned a strong martial arts.

Li Yuan's five sons have their own unique skills. The eldest son Jiancheng studied literature, the second son Shimin was both civil and military, the third son Yuanji and the fourth son Xuanba practiced martial arts, and the fifth son Zhiyun also studied literature. These five sons have always been Li Yuan's pride.

"See Mr. Father!"

Li Yuanji was full of energy and was full of energy, but Li Xuanba was a little dull, and he was stupid and learned rituals from his brother, and said in a silence: "See my father!"

Li Yuan rebuilt the most, likes Shimin the most, feels most sorry for Xuanba, but he is just as good as Yuan Ji. He thinks Yuan Ji is a little cunning and takes Xuanba out all day to cause trouble, but in the end he puts the blame on Xuanba, which makes Li Yuan very angry.

Xuanba was not allowed to follow him again, but instead handed Xuanba to his son-in-law Chai Shao. The young general behind him was his son-in-law Chai Shao. Ren Yingjilang General was also transferred to Zhuo County. Li Yuan left the favor of the Ministry of War. Chai

Shao was left to guard the granary of Zhuo County.

"Did you give me a greeting to General Manager Yang?" Li Yuan said with a heavy face.

Li Yuanji hurriedly saluted Yang Yuanqing, "See General Yang!"

Li Xuanba also followed clumsyly, and said with a gull: "See General Yang!"

Yang Yuanqing laughed, "Two brothers are exempt from gifts!"

He reached into the horse bag and mopped it out, mopped a horizontal knife, and smiled and said, "This is made of the star iron obtained from the extreme northern grassland. It is quite sharp. This knife is given to the smallest person!"

He handed the knife to Li Xuanba. Li Xuanba was overjoyed and took the knife and pulled it out half. The blade was sharp and extremely sharp. He couldn't put it down. He pulled out the knife and ran out to shout and slash, but forgot to give it to Yang Yuanqing

Say thanks.

Li Yuan apologized: "This child is relatively dull, so don't blame Mr. Yang."

Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly, "Xuanba is simple and natural, I like him."

Seeing a trace of jealousy flashing in Yuanji's eyes, Yang Yuanqing bowed and smiled, "I'm sorry today. I only have a knife around me. I'll give it to you next time."

Li Yuanji turned his head and said proudly: "I have a knife myself, so I don't have to send it to you!"

Li Yuan was furious and whipped it off, pointing at Yuan Ji and cursing: "You are not polite and apologizing to Mr. Yang!" But he refused to apologize. Li Yuan couldn't hold on to face and became more angry, and he was also angry.

With a whip, Yang Yuanqing stopped Li Yuan's arm and said with a smile: "Eunuch Li, why bother to get angry if you have a small matter?"

Chai Shao hurried forward and whispered Li Yuanji. Li Yuanji then stepped forward to salute, "If Yuanji is rude, please forgive me."

Seeing that his son apologized, Li Yuan was slightly angry and glared at him fiercely. Unexpectedly, Li Yuanji said again: "I heard for a long time that General Yang is good at archery skills. Yuanji wants to ask for advice."

Yang Yuanqing laughed silently. This Li Yuanji was very interesting. She looked quite similar to her when she was young, and she became more energetic. Li Yuan was about to scold him, but Yang Yuanqing stopped him and said with a smile: "There are many people in our army who are good at archery skills."

If Yuanji is interested, he might as well come to Mingri to our military camp and compete with my children."

Li Yuanji did not understand Yang Yuanqing's implication, and his young heart immediately agreed, "Okay! It will definitely come tomorrow. If General Manager Yang's subordinates are not good, I would like to ask General Manager Yang for advice!"

“No problem.”

Yang Yuanqing turned around and smiled at Li Yuan and said, "The son-in-law is really interesting, I like it."

Li Yuan smiled bitterly, speechless, Yang Yuanqing smiled and urged his horse to go up to Youzhou City and Wuhui Mountain in Gu County. This is a mountain that stretches for hundreds of miles, with high mountains and dense forests, and a majestic momentum.

There are several mountain villages distributed on Feihu Ridge to the north of the mountain. This is the old nest of the bandit leader Mantian Wang Bawei. Wang Bawei is a powerful man in Shanggu County, with a strong martial arts skills and ambitiousness. After Yang Guang launched the Goryeo War, the world was

In the chaos, countless grain-giving workers from Henan and Shandong fled in Zhuo County because they could not pay their jobs.

Wang Baxu felt that the time had come, so he recruited hundreds of children from the township, occupied the mountain and became king, and fled the civilians all defected to him. In just a few months, he recruited nearly 10,000 people. He called himself the King of Mantian and began to establish himself as king.

The king's addiction.

After all, Wang Baxu was a local, and he didn't dare to disturb the countryside too much, so he turned his target to Feihu Road, intercepted passers-by, forced the purchase of money from the road, and at the same time he also reclaimed land at the foot of the mountain to be self-sufficient.

He has been the king of the first seventh year of Daye, and it has been a whole year since he has made a strong family. Because of his wealth, he still doesn't feel the pressure at first. With more than 10,000 people under his command, he gradually couldn't bear it, but because a million troops were stationed in Zhuo

He dared not act rashly, but as the army set out to Liaodong, Wang Baxu's heart gradually became active and began to consider the way to make a living. Like all the bandits, what he coveted the most was the huge soldiers in Zhuo County.

warehouse and granary.

These days he has been thinking about taking action. In the morning, Wang Baxu and the second head of the army, Song Jingang, were discussing plans.

Wang Baxu and Song Jingang are fellow villagers. Wang Baxu is in his early thirties, and Song Jingang is slightly younger than one or two years younger. He is not only skilled in martial arts, but also has a lot of strategies. While the two were discussing, a soldier rushed into the meeting hall to report:

Report to the Heavenly King, Lu Mingyue asked for a meeting outside the village.

Wang Baxu was stunned. Why did Lu Mingyue come? Song Jingang thought about it and smiled and said, "Lu Mingyue comes in person, and there must be something big. If I am not wrong, he also came for the Guan Cang of Zhuo County.

”

Wang Baxu laughed, "It's coming just right!"

He hurried out to greet Lu Mingyue. In front of the village, Lu Mingyue, dressed in black, brought more than a dozen brothers to wait. Lu Mingyue is also a famous tycoon in Zhuo County. She has a great sword technique and is known as Youzhou Yusheng Sword and Renshou

In the fourth year, he was introduced to King Yang of Qi. Because he was a member of the Lu clan of Fanyang, Yang appointed him as one of his four major guards.

After the King of Qi was deposed, Lu Mingyue returned to his hometown. The Lu family hated him because he served the King of Qi. Lu Mingyue broke up with the family and waited for an opportunity to rebel. Last year, it was almost the same time that Wang Baxu was in Yanshan.

He raised the flag to rebel, and also recruited nearly 10,000 subordinates, claiming to be the King of Shi"

Lu Mingyue is 35 or 36 years old this year. She is big and round, has a square face, and has a sharp gaze. Especially his pair of ears that are eye-catching, it is unforgettable.
