At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 105 Fireworks under Yangzhou in March

Since Xianweiju opened, every seven days, a huge amount of information has accumulated, but Fan Zhu is not the material.

He is quite experienced in business, and he has managed the eight Xianweiju in Luoyang City in an orderly manner, but when it comes to intelligence collection and spy reports, he is far behind.

"We still need a professional person to be in charge of the intelligence department of Wanmin City."

After this incident, Xu Mu realized the importance of intelligence work.

If he knew in advance, the three of Li Shimin would definitely not be able to escape Luoyang.

But before the Song Dynasty, even the Li and Tang dynasties did not start to pay attention to intelligence work.

The Song Dynasty established the Imperial City Department to spy on the intelligence of officials and the situation in all parts of the world, and secretly reported to the emperor.

In the Ming Dynasty, Jinyiwei developed to its peak, weaving charges and monitoring the world, and Xiuchundao Feiyu suit became their representative.

In fact, during the Qin Dynasty, the first emperor established the Black Ice Platform to monitor all officials and spy on the world's intelligence.

But until now this fine tradition has been lost...

"By the way, I remember that Jiangdu has Pei Ju. Although he has a bad reputation, he is a good spy."

Thinking about it, Xu Mu's eyes lit up.

He has always believed in professional people to do professional things.

So he handed over the command of the army to Lao Zhang, the internal affairs to Lao Fang, and the infrastructure... to Lao Yang.

Facts have proved that they shine in this position like a duck to water.

Well, especially Lao Yang.

And Pei Ju, as far as Xu Mu knows, is now 70 years old.

In history, this person's reputation is not very good, because Lao Yang ignored the government in the late period, so he began to flatter and flatter him, trying to survive...

If Lao Yang hadn't been caught by him, he should be in Jiangdu by now.

At this time, the group of ministers came forward to ask Lao Yang to work hard, return to Luoyang, and rectify the government. However, because Wagang Li Mi occupied Luokou and cut off the route back to Luoyang, Lao Yang even planned to re-establish the capital in...Nanjing.

Said not to Luoyang, extremely capricious.

During this period, the [-] soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army in Jiangdu, most of whom were children of Guanzhong, were eager to homesick, sighed every day, and their morale was low.

It was Pei Ju who proposed to Lao Yang that the widows and unmarried women who had reached the age of twenty in Jiangdu be betrothed to these soldiers.

Therefore, after Yu Wenhuaji led the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army to hang and kill Lao Yang, he rarely killed him.

Who made him belong to a hundred thousand soldiers... a great matchmaker.

"Pei Ju is quite tactful. I think that after inviting him to Wanmin City, he should be able to start working as a spy very quickly. Well, although he is already 70 years old, he should work for two years first, and then let him retire to serve as the Civil Affairs Secretary of Wanmin City. Director, continue to be a matchmaker."

Thinking of this, Xu Mu felt more and more that this is a talent!

It must be dug over!

After the battle stabilized, he decided to take the brand new cloth woven by Wanmin City to Jiangdu, and by the way, fool Pei Ju into the deep mountains and old forests.

……

Outside Luoyang City, three days later.

Wang Shichong led an army of 15 in an attempt to stop the Wagang Army, but suffered a disastrous defeat.

He didn't have any talented generals under his command, and most importantly, he was also a mediocre commander.

Ambushed by Pei Renji, 15 troops lost [-].

Wang Shi acted as a frightened fool, and quickly led his army back to Luoyang, closed the city, and defended it by relying on the fortified city.

On that day, Wang Shichong knelt outside Yuewang's mansion with his upper body bare and thorns on his back, crying bitterly.

A full three hours!

In the end, Yang Tong couldn't bear it, felt sorry for his hard work, and came out to comfort him in person, and rewarded him with a lot of gold and silver treasures to comfort him generously.

"General Wang is my pillar of the Sui Dynasty. We must not be decadent and discouraged. We should adjust as soon as possible, restore morale, and guard Luoyang."

Not only that, but Yang Tong even added officials to him and gave him 200 beautiful maidservants.

Wang Shichong was so grateful that he prostrated himself on the ground, and said in a sad voice: "Thanks to His Highness's trust, the final general will use this to repay Your Highness's kindness!"

On the surface, the two monarchs and ministers are in harmony, as before.

But after Yang Tong returned home, he said to Yuan Wendu, "General Wang...is old."

Yuan Wendu trembled and lowered his head, not daring to comment.

Next, Yang Tong's next sentence spoke to his heart: "Yangcheng Gongsun Ying, who is only thirty years old, can defeat the enemy's edge. I didn't have much before, and now I see General Wang meeting the enemy's edge for the first time. , then lost [-] yuan, only to know that Sun Ying's talent is really like the ancient Sun Bin."

Without comparison, there is no harm.

Wang Shichong wanted to prove himself, but was defeated. He and Sun Ying led thousands of remnants and guarded Yangcheng. Comparing the two, people with discerning eyes know who is the pillar of the country.

In the Yue Palace, Yang Tong sighed again. No wonder his lonely brother-in-law said that Wang Shichong was not enough to entrust military affairs...

"Master Yuan, do you think that Yangcheng Gongsun Ying is enough to entrust military affairs?"

Silently, Yang Tong looked at Yuan Wendu, terrified Yuan Wen, and waved his hands again and again: "It's a big taboo for soldiers to change generals before the battle, not to mention that now Li Mi leads an army of 13 to besiege the city, and it's all thanks to General Wang to guard Luoyang." , if it stimulates him, I'm afraid..."

He didn't say the next thing. What he was worried about was whether Wang Shichong, who was loyal to the Sui Dynasty on the surface, would suddenly lead his troops to rebel.

After all... Wang Shichong has the final say on the army in Luoyang City.

Knowing that he had slipped his words, Yang Tong quickly shut up, nodded, and didn't say any more.

……

Wang Shichong returned to the general's mansion, changing his previous appearance of crying bitterly, with a gloomy expression.

When Yang Tong helped him, he clearly felt that Yang Tong didn't mean it from the bottom of his heart.

Moreover, Yang Tong looked at his demeanor, and he was completely different from Sun Ying before her rise.

Before Sun Ying's rise, Yang Tong looked at him as if he was looking for a savior. After all, the Wagang Army was so powerful that Yang Tong could only rely on him.

but now……

"Zhuzi! Do you think that if you get a Sun Ying, you can calm me down?!"

Wang Shichong's face was gloomy, and he cursed loudly.

The confidantes beside him all lowered their heads, pretending that they didn't hear anything.

……

Immediately afterwards, the Wagang Army approached the outskirts of Luoyang City, and 13 troops surrounded Luoyang City.

And issued a statement.

Hmm... Driven by Sun Ying, Li Mi and Yang Tong are more and more fond of publishing proclamations.

Before and after the war, we must spray the enemy indiscriminately.

For example, this time, Li Mi won a big victory, swept away the haze of the previous days, and even scolded Wang Shichong in the essay, flattering the villain, having no plan, no talent, and no hero at the time, which actually made Zhu Zi famous!
And let out bold words, within one month, Luoyang will be conquered, and Yang Tong and Wang Shichong will be captured alive!

In Yangcheng, after Xu Mu received this call to action, he quickly summoned Sun Ying.

Unexpectedly... Sun Ying is also studying the call to action of his "opponent".

"Can you get something?" Xu Mu asked.

Sun Ying looked solemn, and said solemnly: "I have gained a little, this thief Li Mi is obviously a traitor, but he claims to occupy the principles of heaven and morality, and he uses the name of doing justice for the sky and avenging justice for the people, so in the writing, he encourages People's hearts, so that the morale of one's own side is greatly increased, and the enemy troops doubt themselves..."

Hearing Sun Ying's analysis, Xu Mu nodded.

Being able to say such a thing shows that Sun Ying really worked hard.

only……

Xu Mu patted him on the shoulder and said: "That's right, what you lack the most now is the spirit in Li Mi's essay, he is a rebellious minister, and his writing is so domineering, your writing is still too petty , you need to learn more about this."

Sun Ying nodded quickly, expressing that she must study with an open mind and strive for early progress.

"Teach you a way, as a big fan...cough cough, as a qualified writer of essays, for any essay you write, you must firmly believe that you are the party of justice, stand on the moral high ground, and kidnap the other party , to scold the other party into doubting life, so that your proclamation can be perfected."

Xu Mu taught Sun Ying the crucial secret.

As Sun Ying listened, her eyes became brighter, as if a brand new door was opening towards him.

"Thank you, my lord, for your teaching. The subordinates will definitely keep it in mind, and practice the calligraphy to perfection as soon as possible!" Sun Ying knelt down on one knee, cupping her fists and saluting with excitement, as if she had been beaten to death.

Xu Mu smiled, if Sun Ying is in the later generations, he must be a generation of keyboard warriors.

In this era, his proclamation progressed rapidly.

In the future, it will be just around the corner to scold his peers for him...

……

Wanmin City.

Sixty thousand people entered the city, and Fang Xuanling started to get busy again.

Even because I was on duty too late, I was scolded by my wife every day, so I had to sleep on the floor, but Comrade Lao Fang loved it.

Stimulated by Xu Mu's frequent chicken soup, Fang Xuanling found the value of her life.

With [-] people entering the city, the current Wanmin City has reached the upper limit of the population that can be accommodated, and it is easy to cause various problems.

Therefore, there are no details, and he must intervene one by one to avoid mistakes.

And Lao Zhang also took advantage of the time when Li Mi's attention was attracted by Luoyang, and began to return to Wanmin City to recruit new soldiers and expand the army.

After discussing with Fang Xuanling, Xu Mu decided to recruit 5000 soldiers based on the number of registered [-] civilians and household registration.

This is the upper limit that can be recruited without affecting the normal development of Wanmin City.

Today's Wanmin City has Fang Xuanling for internal affairs, Zhang Xutuo for foreign affairs, Fan Zhu for Luoyang, Wang Tong for education, and Yang Guang for infrastructure. Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

Under the premise that Xu Mu has finalized the general direction, Wanmin City has entered an orderly and rapid development.

"It's already the end of February, and it will be March soon."

Standing on the tower of Wanmin City, Xu Mu looked down at the rapidly developing Wanmin City, feeling a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Of course, it's not that this is my second sense of Jiangshan, but... he finally has a place to stand in this troubled world.

And provided a "home" for hundreds of thousands of displaced and homeless people.

Now, his rear is basically stable, and next, he has to deal with those anti-kings.

"In the original history, Lao Yang Sanyue was hanged and killed by Yu Wenhuaji, and the world was in complete chaos. This time, it is no exception."

Xu Mu took a deep breath, and ordered people to carry the cloth produced by the textile workshop to Yangcheng, and planned to go straight down to Jiangdu via the Tongji Canal.

Only when history is not changed, can he rely on the prophet to take the initiative in front of those colleagues and snatch what originally belonged to them.

For example... the grain in Luokou warehouse.

　Next is Jiang Dujuan, dealing with Yu Wenhua.
