During the Spring Festival of another year, Cao Yi came back from visiting friends again.
When he arrived outside Shangshanfang, Cao Ni turned his head again and looked at Jishanfang opposite.
It's a pity that the city wall has been built, blocking the view. Fortunately, there are so many people visiting relatives and friends these days, there is no curfew, and the gate of the old square is open - to be honest, Bianliang doesn't even have a city wall, so the curfew is really meaningful.
It's not big, and I don't care much about it on weekdays.
After a year, there are several more residents in Jishanfang, such as the house given to Pei Kang's son after his death, such as the house given to Lu Zhi, such as the house given to Liang Fen, etc., all of which are occupied by people.
.
In Shangshanfang, in addition to Cao Yi, Su Shuyan, and Wang Xuan, there are also other houses such as Yu Liang, Yu Zhi, and Pan Tao.
Among them, Yu Liang's and Pan Tao's houses were awarded by the government after they were built, while Yu's house was built by recruiting refugees after purchasing the land.
Of course, there are more than just these few in Bianliang.
In fact, the land grant process has been accelerated this year, and now more than a hundred officials have moved into various buildings in Bianliang.
In addition to them, there are also some senior craftsmen, wealthy businessmen, famous local wealthy families, military men with great military exploits, and well-educated people who can move in. They either buy land and build houses themselves, or give it to the government after it is built.
There was a market in the city and in the east of the city, selling various goods.
There was even one in the sensual place.
This city is gradually gathering popularity and becoming more like a political center.
"I heard that you are going to Dongping with your family after the New Year, Gaoping?" After entering Cao's house, the two went straight to the study again, and Cao Yi asked.
"Wine sacrifices, running errands is commonplace." Fengpi said: "There are 9,600 soldiers in Dongping and Gaoping counties. This time, 6,000 people should be sent out for the expedition. We will go on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to check the soldiers.
Equipment, don’t let others fool you.”
"Where are the soldiers from Chen Liu, Puyang, and Luonan?" Cao Yi asked.
"There are other people over there to check." Fengpi said.
"This is going to be a big move." Cao Yi said with emotion: "When I was in Guanggu, I heard that Shao Xun had many generals, but I didn't expect it to be so extensive. To fight against the world with one corner, alas."
"Everyone in Cao Cao's family is here, and his mansion is also magnificent. This year, he purchased more than a hundred hectares of land in Jiyin. These days, many people are envious of him." Feng Pi said, "Why are you sighing?"
"That's right." Cao Yi laughed, seemingly cheerful.
He is indeed having a great time this year.
As a military officer, I assisted in the construction of Bianliang. Several of my suggestions were accepted, and I felt happy - people need to be recognized.
The purchase of land has also been settled.
Someone in Jiyin was dissatisfied with Liang Gong, so he took more than a thousand servants and his family across the Yangtze River and sold the land at a low price. Cao Yi acted quickly and offered a high price, grabbing more than a hundred hectares, so he sent his eldest son there, along with
Many servants and retainers in the mansion went to Jiyin to manage the manor.
During the official meeting, he said some beautiful words, and Liang Gong rewarded him with a pair of white jade stones.
Although this life is not as pleasant as being a prince in Guanggu, it is not too bad. As long as the Liang Kingdom is not destroyed, he can continue to live freely.
After the two drank a pot of tea, the topic of conversation was almost finished, and they stood up to leave whenever possible.
Cao Yi sent him to the door, hesitating again and again, and couldn't help but warned: "You will work hard in the future. I have no future. I have reached the top of my career as a military officer, but you are different. Mr. Liang is very good. Don't do it."
Think about things."
Feng Pi was moved in his heart, bowed deeply, and turned around to leave.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, every family is happy.
Liang Fen looked at the empty new house and remained silent.
The eldest son died in a melee between kings in his early years, leaving no heirs.
The second son passed away due to illness last year. Fortunately, he left behind one son, but he was still young.
Sometimes Liang Fen couldn't help but ask herself, what evil did she do in her life to end up like this?
His wife, Huangfu, was devastated by the death of her son and was not in good health. She was bedridden from time to time. In her daze, she missed her daughter several times, who was the couple's only living child.
After Liang Fen settled down with his wife, he was about to drink to numb himself when he saw brothers Fu Chang and Fu Xuan coming to visit with several Guanxi scholars in Beijing.
Fu Chang is now Junyi Ling, one of the two major county magistrates of Bianliang.
Fu Xuan was offering wine in the East Pavilion of the General's Mansion.
In addition to the two brothers, there is also Wei Fu of Jingzhao Weishi, who was originally in Nanyang and is now working as a lieutenant in the General's Palace.
After the Xi Qun of the Xi family was pacified, after Xi Guang was awarded the title of Luxun of Han Dynasty, he was now Cao Youcheng, the fifth soldier of the Liang Kingdom.
Huangfuchang of the Anding Huangfu family, Wanling, the son of Huangfuzhong, the former governor of Qinzhou, is now Cao Zuocheng, a Zuomin of the Liang Kingdom.
Former Jing Zhaoyin, the governor of Yongzhou, Liang Zong, a member of the Liang clan, fled from Guanzhong and had no official position.
Liang Ji, the son of Liang Wei, the former governor of the Northern Territory, whose father died in the battle in Guanzhong, fled to Guandong and had no official position.
After the seven people arrived, they greeted each other and it was very lively for a while.
Liang Fen led them to the study room to sit down.
"Do you know, sir, that there will be a large army gathering at Wuguan after the spring begins? I heard that Luonan soldiers will also send out 3,000 troops to accompany them." Among the people present, except Liang Fen, the only one who has no official position is Liang Zong.
The most senior one, he was also the first to speak.
"More than 20,000 people may be dispatched there." Liang Fen nodded first, and then said: "Thousands of men will be recruited from Luonan counties, Xiangcheng, Yingchuan and other places, and 5,000 powerful soldiers and horses will be dispatched from Nanyang.
Dispatch five thousand
Ding Zhuang, Nanyang Kingdom will also recruit 3,000 people. If nothing unexpected happens, Le Kai Le Hongxu will be the commander, Long Xiang will supervise Chang Can, and Nanyang Lieutenant Yuan Xi will serve as his deputy. The army will enter from Wuguan and march towards
Lantian Pass."
Seeing Liang Fen's affirmation, everyone looked excited.
"Finally we have succeeded in solving the problem." Huangfuchang sighed.
"If you don't go, King Nanyang will be gone." Xi Qun said.
"If King Nanyang dies, he will die without affecting the overall situation." Huangfuchang replied unceremoniously.
To be honest, he doesn't have any good impression of the Sima family now, and he even hates it. He very much hopes to see the end of the Jin Dynasty.
"Is this the main attack? Is it a feint attack?" Wei Fu interjected.
Liang Fen glanced at him and said: "As far as I know, there are no feint attacks, they are all main attacks. Wherever there is a breakthrough along the way, we will immediately increase our troops and attack along that side."
"Liang Gong is so heroic?" Wei Fu asked in surprise.
"Henan and Hebei are in hand. As long as Mr. Liang doesn't make any mistakes, how can we lose?" Liang Ji said from the side.
When everyone heard it, they all thought it made sense.
In fact, Liang Gong may be defeated on some battlefields now, but it is really difficult to lose overall, unless there are internal problems, such as a large-scale rebellion, or a sudden purge, which makes people panic and morale is low.
With how cautious he is now, it's hard to expect big trouble inside.
A big purge is unlikely, there is no reason - or is it not time yet?
"Everyone, Nanyang will definitely recruit a large number of refugees from Guanxi to fight. The Wubao commanders may not be happy. If you know them, you can try to persuade them." Liang Fen said: "If we can attack Guanzhong, we can open up the situation.
Otherwise, it will be very difficult for the lonely ghosts who have lost their ancestral land, even if I give you more advice."
As soon as Liang Fen said this, a group of people stopped arguing.
They now have a unified goal, which is to help Liang Gong's army invade Guanzhong and strive for the collective interests of the Xizhou scholars.
As for how to break in, you have to think about it carefully.
It's as simple as convincing the master of Guanxiwu Fort in Nanyang and letting them fight hard.
The more difficult ones include sneaking into Guanzhong, contacting old connections, and launching a rebellion.
In short, there are still many ways, it just depends on whether you can do it.
"This is what my family is like..." Liang Fen choked up after saying the previous sentence, and said: "Now I have nothing to ask for, I just hope that my family will be well, the township party will have a bright future, and Li Yuan in the world will live and work in peace and contentment. With the power of Mr. Liang,
Just like the rising sun, you are waiting for a good job, don't think about things, there are not many opportunities."

In the late twelfth lunar month, Yang Quan returned from Bianliang to Mount Tai. At the end of the first lunar month, he returned from Mount Tai to Bianliang.
He has received exact orders: as General Wu Ya, he will lead 3,000 Yang family troops and 5,000 men from the five counties of Taishan, Lu, Qi, Jinan, and Jibei, totaling 8,000 troops, to Hanoi to attack Zhi Pass.
If nothing unexpected happens, the leader of this journey is Hou Feihu, the warlord of the Black River Army, and there may also be some local soldiers from Heyang, Hanoi, and Jijun, and Liu Quan, the general from Heqing Town, totaling about 20,000 infantry and cavalry.
For the Yang family, this is another opportunity to gain military exploits.
In the previous rebellion in Hebei, Yang Dan took the Qinghe troops he had trained with overwhelming strength. He first put down the local small-scale rebellion, then killed the remaining soldiers of Zhang Jack's tribe, and then went north to attack Liu Kun, winning consecutive battles - in the end, due to poor military discipline, the merits and demerits were balanced.
, but Liang Gong gave Yang Dan a Bianliang mansion.
Yang Quan, as a relatively outstanding general among the younger generation of the Yang clan, rose to prominence in the Battle of Laiwu Valley, and now he was ordered to attack Zhi Pass. While he was full of ambition, he was also a little worried.
The Yang family had Yang Jiezhi (Wei Wei) in the court, Yang Chen (You Sima) in the shogunate, Yang Man (Shizhong) in Liang State, and the next level below, there were Yang Kai (She Ren) and Yang Jian (Yang Jian).
Prefect), Wu Youyang Dan (Prefect) and his Yang Quan (General Wu Ya), and there are more other disciples at the county level...
To be honest, if Liang Gong did not give the order, the Yang family would not be willing to volunteer.
But there is no other way, this time I have hit the mark and I have to go.
The so-called Yang Family Army has been gradually developed over the past ten years. Many weapons and equipment have been captured in previous wars, and their armaments are getting better and better. Perhaps Liang Gong is doing it for the purpose of consumption?
In this regard, Yang Quan should not make rash guesses, let alone speak lies.
Now the official structure of Bianliang is becoming clearer and clearer. Several big noble families in Henan cannot talk to each other at all, and it is very possible to do something secretly. It is necessary to be cautious in words and deeds.
After arriving in Beijing, Yang Quan visited a few friends. After getting to know them a little bit, he was a little surprised.
Next year's war will be quite big!
There may be an all-out war in the six directions of Wuguan, Hongnong, Zhiguan, Shexian, Tianchang Town, and Danzhuling. Liang Gong will lead the elite to supervise the battle. Once a gap is opened, he will rush in quickly without hesitation.
Yang Quan didn't know if the Huns could withstand it.
Although they have an advantageous location, fighting in so many directions at the same time puts great pressure on them. If there is a real fight, reinforcements will be needed here and troops will be added there. The tension will be tight everywhere and no mistakes can be made.
But is it really possible to avoid making mistakes on the battlefield?
Okay, maybe you can avoid making mistakes for a short period of time, but what if you play for a long time? People have their limits, and maybe there will be mistakes somewhere.
Yang Quan has a lot more confidence in this war. Perhaps, there is really a chance to attack Pingyang.
Chapter completed!
