Gongsundu tried to lure Wuda and Loushan to go deeper into Liaodong at the cost of a Liaodong county and half of the Liaodong county. His purpose was self-evident. He had accurately calculated the greedy mentality of Wuda and Loushan and stayed there for a long time.

On the plateau and deep mountains, suddenly coming to the prosperous big city on the plains, if you say you are not greedy, it would be a lie.

It's just that Wu Da is not an idle person. He is also judging Gongsun Du's intentions and is on high alert for Gongsun Du's main force. At the same time, he actively contacts all parties in an attempt to deal a devastating blow to Gongsun Du, seize Liaodong and Lelang, and lead the army.

Fang is waiting for a large amount of land. In this way, he will become the largest tribe in Wuhuan. At that time, it will not be the problem of the three kings, but the hero of the entire Wuhuan. The position of Shanyu must belong to him.

Therefore, he felt the need to take a chance.

Wuda and Loushan unexpectedly sent troops to Liaodong, and Gongsundu decisively abandoned the Liaodong prefecture, which greatly stimulated Zheng Yu. In the past few days, he had been thinking about one question: was the ancients smart?

Or are modern people smarter? Thinking about the hundreds of scholars from hundreds of years ago, why their works have been circulated for thousands of years and become classics, and why Sun Wu's "The Art of War" has been regarded as the golden rule of military by all countries in the world in later generations?

He felt that perhaps he had underestimated the heroes of this era when he first came, so he put away his contempt and began to seriously consider the development of the war and possible future results, and made detailed preparations.

After thinking about these things too much, Zheng Yu felt a little annoyed and his brain was a little swollen, so he disguised himself as an ordinary person and walked out of the palace alone to wander on the streets. Lei Bao and several of his soldiers also disguised themselves as ordinary people and were scattered behind him.

In the distance, he was secretly guarded.

Zheng Yu raised his head and paid attention to the shops on both sides of the street, and found that they were quite prosperous. Therefore, he also started shopping here and asked about that one, becoming a little curious about the prosperity of Liucheng. When he came to a grocery store,

I found that there were really department stores in there, so I couldn't help but ask the store owner, "Shopkeeper, you also have fish here, where do you get all this from?"

"Yuyang, the salted fish, table salt, various dried fish, etc. in my shop are all shipped from the seaside of Yuyang." The shopkeeper said patiently, letting Zheng Yu understand that in fact, both the Han people and the surrounding Hu people had Hu markets.

They transported iron tools, cloth, rice and grain and other materials from the Han Dynasty, and exchanged them for horses, furs and other goods from Hu. The trade volume between the two parties was not small. Liucheng was an important distribution center, so it was not surprising that it was so prosperous.

Zheng Yu looked back at the road and saw that Han people accounted for about half of the people passing by, so he asked again: "Shopkeeper, there are quite a lot of Han people in Liucheng."

"Hans account for almost half of the population of Liucheng. Back then, Qiu Liju robbed hundreds of thousands of people and came to Wuhuan. Now they have taken root in this northern land. Alas," the shopkeeper felt that he had made a mistake when he said this, and his expression changed.

, quickly shook his head and said: "We won't say these things. We are businessmen, just doing business. Sir, do you want to buy anything?"

Zheng Yu shook his head, "Let's take a look first. I want to buy a sword. I wonder if there is a blacksmith shop nearby."

When the shopkeeper saw Zheng Yu's tall figure and extraordinary equipment, he also suspected that he was from the government, so he wanted to get rid of him quickly. He quickly said: "Yes, there is a big blacksmith shop a hundred meters away from here. It is run by Han people."

Yes, you can hit anything."

When he saw Zheng Yu go out, he breathed a sigh of relief. What he just said was a bit too much. In the past, there would have been trouble. Fortunately, now everyone in Liucheng basically knows that the governor of Jicheng is the actual master, and the city guard has been changed.

They became Han people. Therefore, the status of the Han people in Wuhuan, especially in Liucheng, was much higher, and those Wuhuan people also became polite to the Han people.

Zheng Yu seemed to have turned into a curious woman and took up shopping in the shops on the street. He spent half a day doing this. Soon, he came to the east city gate and saw a carriage, guarded by dozens of soldiers, speeding up from behind. He almost

When they met him, Lei Bao and others who were following him dozens of meters behind were immediately startled due to his extremely fast speed.

Zheng Yu turned around and reached out to grab the frightened horse.

"You Han Chinese, don't you have any eyesight?" shouted a general on horseback guarding the side of the carriage.

Zheng Yu glared at him and said nothing, but his good mood all morning was ruined by this guy, so he was naturally unhappy. Lei Bao and others rushed over, drew their swords, and wanted to pull the knight off his horse, but Zheng Yu was stopped by him.

Yu waved her hand to stop.

"Is it reasonable for you to ride a horse on the street?" Zheng Yu scolded in a stern voice.

The general wanted to defend himself, but at this moment the curtains in the carriage were opened, and a woman in her twenties or thirties appeared. She was extremely beautiful. She quickly saluted Zheng Yu and said apologetically: "Master Governor, my family is a gangster."

I'm really sorry for disturbing Da's family." She spoke in pure Chinese, then got off the carriage and apologized to Zheng Yu.

It turns out they are members of the Uda family, no wonder their subordinates are so awesome.

Zheng Yu saw that Mrs. Wu Da was a Han woman, with a superb figure and face, comparable to Song Ji. He thought that this must be another fault of Wu Da and others, so his attitude immediately became much gentler, and he said with a smile: "Ah,

They are Lord Wuda's family members. It's okay. Lord Wuda won a great victory in Liaodong and his ambitions were greatly boosted."

When the horseman heard that his mistress was so respectful to Zheng Yu, he quickly jumped off his horse and knelt on the ground, saying, "This subordinate deserves to die. I'm so sorry for rushing into the governor."

When Zheng Yu saw that the other party was showing weakness, he calmed down and said, "It's okay. The flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple. We are all members of the same family. It's not a problem. It's just that you tell the groom to drive carefully and don't startle Madam. Madam,

Get in the car, I won’t delay you anymore.”

The lady obviously wanted to leave as soon as possible, so she said sorry and returned to the carriage. A group of people began to walk slowly towards the city gate. Zheng Yu turned back to Lei Bao and said: "Inform Sun Qi and the others and ask someone to

Keep an eye on it.”

When Lei Bao saw the carriage going away, he quickly whispered: "Lang Ya is not far behind him. Don't dare to get too close. Don't worry, my lord, Sun Qi is very experienced in doing things." Soon, Zheng Yu saw several horses carrying goods.

I followed him, knowing that Langya was disguised as a businessman and was following Mrs. Uda.

When they came to Zheng Yu, they didn't even stop. They looked like they didn't recognize each other at all, and their costumes were so similar that Zheng Yu was quite impressed. Seeing Mrs. Uda leaving the city, Zheng Yu turned around and wanted to go back.

, but saw a carriage convoy entering the city, with more than 300 people, guarding more than a dozen carriages. Zheng Yu thought to himself that this was a big businessman, so he stopped to see who it was.

When the carriage team approached him, a cry came from inside a carriage: "Stop, stop!" The team stopped. At this time, Zheng Yu was watching alone on the roadside like a pedestrian. Lei Bao and others

The people were farther away. Although their eyes were not looking this way, they could still feel that they were on high alert. The incident that had frightened Zheng Yu before made Lei Bao very upset.

A tall and strong man got off the carriage, came to Zheng Yu, looked at him again and again, and then shouted: "Master Governor, why are you so interested in wandering around?" After speaking, he came up to shake hands with him.

In fact, Zheng Yu also saw that it was Su Puyan, Lord Wuhuan of Liaodong. Although he was disguised, wearing a melon skin hat and fur clothes, he looked like a businessman, but his eyes were burning and his face was filled with the wind and frost of a battle-hardened warrior.

, The heroic spirit is revealed from time to time, which is very different from that of a businessman. Besides, the two have met several times, how can they hide it from each other.

Therefore, Zheng Yu held Su Buyan's hands and said jokingly: "Sir Su Buyan can change his career to business, so what does it mean for me, the governor, to wander around? How come I have time to come to Liucheng? Really, I didn't say anything before coming, otherwise

I will personally go out of the city to meet you."

Su Buyan touched his head and said with a smile: "There are some things I want to tell the adults. I don't want outsiders to know, so I quietly pretended to be a businessman. Unfortunately, I didn't pretend to be a businessman, but the adults still saw it."

"Is it about Liaodong?"

Su Puyan took Zheng Yu's hand and came to a remote place on the roadside. "It's about Wu Da. He came to see me. Sir, it's not convenient to talk here, so we'd better find a private place to discuss it."

Zheng Yu heard that it was about Wu Da and was curious. He really didn't know why Wu Da was looking for Su Buyan. But after a rough thought, he could understand that Wu Da was probably going to move reinforcements. "How about going to the palace? That's where

No one knows."

Su Buyan was just about to respond, but in a blink of an eye he looked at his clothes and couldn't help but smile and said: "I am a businessman now. It is not appropriate to go to the palace. Let's find another place to discuss." The secret location was finally decided on Su Buyan.

At the place of residence, Zheng Yu put on a melon-skin hat and pretended to be a businessman. He entered Su Buyan's residence half an hour later, and the two found a secret room to discuss.

"Wuda came to me and asked me to send troops with him to deal with Gongsun Du. He said that if we can defeat Gongsun Du's main force, the two families will share the land, population and other spoils equally." Su Puyan said straight to the point.

Zheng Yu picked up the tea and took a sip, thinking that it was indeed the case. This Wu Da was not a reckless person. If Su Puyan sent troops together, Gongsun Du would be in trouble. By then, it would be really hard to steal the chicken but lose the rice. He would really lose the money.

Liaodong thought for a while, but Su Buyan didn't interrupt his train of thought.

After a long time, Zheng Yu asked: "What do you think, and how do you judge the outcome of the war between the two sides?"

"Wuda and Loushan have 20,000 regular troops and 20,000 irregular troops. I have 20,000 regular troops and 30,000 irregular troops. In total, I have 40,000 regular troops and 50,000 irregular troops.

Gongsundu has 60,000 regular troops and 40,000 irregular troops. If we want to build more troops, Liaodong still has potential, but they have few horses and can only engage in infantry. Therefore, my judgment is that both sides are equally matched and can fight."

Su Buyan analyzed the strength, situation and potential of both sides, and felt that the chance of victory was 50-50.

"The key point is that most of my tribe lives in the area west and north of Liaodong, and they have been fighting against the Liaodong army all year round. After Gongsun Du became the governor, he violated Lord Liu Yu's principle of living in harmony and continued to use troops against my tribe. We suffered a lot of losses.

, I really want to take revenge this time.”

Speaking of Gongsun Du, Su Puyan had a serious look on his face and a look of hatred in his eyes. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot before. "After Gongsun Du became the governor of Liaodong, he ransacked hundreds of rich people's homes and robbed their belongings. He did many bad things.

But his actual rule in Liaodong is also quite stable, and Gongsun Du is a master of military use, so my analysis is still 50 to 50."
