Luo Youdu was greatly surprised by Liu Yuan's situation. He did not expect that persecution paranoia could have such wonderful effects.
Luo Youdu looked at the frightened and emaciated former Emperor of the Southern Han Dynasty in front of him, thought of his achievements, comforted him and told him not to think too much, and also rewarded him with some gold and silver to improve his life.
Looking at Liu Yu with a good face and a heavy heart, Luo Youdu had a thought: Should he scare him from time to time and stimulate his potential?
Liu Yuan looked at the Emperor of Central Plains in front of him, his pores stood up inexplicably.
"Your Majesty, you are ready!"
Wang Tingyi reminded him, and Luo Youdu interrupted his devilish thoughts.
Looking at the inner armor stacked two hundred steps away, he didn't try it himself this time and signaled Wang Tingyi to start testing.
Wang Tingyi learned the lesson this time, stepped on the iron ring with his feet, and used the strength of his hands, feet and waist to string the divine arm.
Wang Tingyi had a warlord father who was very fiddly with crossbows and his posture was much more standard than Luo Youdu's.
With the finger lightly pressing the expander, the tiny crossbow arrow flashed past, piercing through the five layers of armor without any suspense, and still had enough energy left to penetrate deep into the wooden pillar hanging the inner armor.
Compared to his previous blind shots, this shot directly penetrated five layers of armor, which was more convincing.
With this divine arm and bow in hand, the Iron Forest Army and the Iron Kites are no problem.
Luo Youdu looked at Yao Sui, Huai Bing, and Liu Yuan and said: "Can the Divine Arm Bow be mass-produced?"
Yao Sui hesitated slightly and said: "It still needs to go through some tests, such as rain, wind, sand, cold and hot weather, and make fine adjustments to ensure that the God's Arm Bow can maintain its power and operate normally in harsh environments. It will be ready for use in a month at most.
Production."
"Okay!" Luo Youdu said without any hesitation: "Just tell me what materials are needed to make the Divine Arm Bow. Make a list. I order the Third Division to reserve them in advance."
Now he is confident when he says this.
The land of China is vast and has all kinds of materials, but the difference between the north and the south is not concentrated in one place.
Now the Luoyu court has obtained the core hometown of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and uses the whole country to purchase the necessary supplies.
When the state machine is running, even rare objects hidden in deep mountains and forests can be found.
Finally, Luo Youdu glanced at the three of them and said: "This thing will work wonders on the battlefield. The more secret it is, the better. It is not convenient for publicity at the moment. After it is unexpected on the battlefield, I will personally write a book to commend you and other achievements. Remember,
There is not much to say about this thing.”
The first thing Yao Sui, Huai Bing, and Liu Yu did after entering the general prison and weapons prison was to instill the idea of secrecy, and their responses were decisive.
After encouraging the three of them, Luo Youdu returned to Yanhe Hall to handle today's government affairs.
The main content is about the placement and deployment of Yunjiuzhou.
Luo Youdu does not intend to make any big moves towards Yun Jiuzhou. Things will happen naturally. The bigger the move, the more counterproductive it will be.
Ma Dechen has been responsible for the government affairs of Yunjiuzhou in recent years and has done a good job.
The main reason is that there is no harm without comparison. Compared with when Yelu Dilie first took charge of government affairs, a series of strange operations made the government orders chaotic and officials and the people complained endlessly. Ma Dechen stabilized the political situation of Yunjiuzhou in less than three months after taking office, which is commendable.
With him handling the civil affairs, the administration of Yunjiuzhou will not be chaotic.
As for the vital military affairs, Luo Youdu handed him over to Yang Ye.
Yang Wudi's name is resounding throughout Khitan. With him here, he will be safe in the short term.
As time goes by, it will be difficult for Confucianism to differentiate between Yi and Han based on Confucianism's ability to assimilate.
Datong Prefecture has Ma Dechen in literature and Yang Ye in military affairs. With these two people, the overall situation can be decided.
As for the generals below, Luo Youdu had no intention of interfering.
The Council Hall and the Ministry of Civil Affairs will have detailed arrangements, and in the end, he can just review them and make his selections.
However, regarding Xiao Hunian's appointment, he had to personally issue the decree.
After Xiao Siwen's death, Xiao Hunian was obsessed with practicing martial arts and learning the art of war. He made rapid progress and learned all kinds of military tactics at his fingertips.
Originally, Luo Youdu was worried about Xiao Hunian's lack of actual combat experience, but now with the help of Xiao Shu, Lu Lie, and Xiao Talin, this shortcoming will be made up for.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see Luo Youdu's deep intention of reusing Xiao Hunian.
Although Xiao Hunian himself had no merit, this appointment was successfully issued.
The herald came to Luo Zhai with a letter of appointment stamped with a large seal.
Facing this hidden residence, the always arrogant herald carefully held the door open without daring to show off, and whispered softly: "Your Majesty has an edict, please ask Mrs. Xiao Hunian to accept it."
After a while, four people walked out of the inner hall, namely Xiao Hunian, Xiao Chuo, Xiao Shululie, and Xiao Talin.
Xiao Shulu and Xiao Talin came to Luo's house early this morning.
It is inevitable that these people of this tribe would be sad to see each other again after thousands of miles apart.
Xiao Hunian already has the charm of a strong woman. After talking about the current situation of each other, she went straight to the point and said to Xiao Shu and Xiao Talin: "Uncle Clan, why did my father die? You were in Khitan, and you know the best.
That's all. I want to avenge my father. In today's world, no one except Luo Tianzi has the strength to do this. I have reached an agreement with Luo Tianzi long ago. I will help him persuade the Xiao family to surrender, and he will avenge me. The Xiao family is left to me.
Lead it personally..."
Xiao Shulu Lie looked at Xiao Hunian with a resolute look on his face and didn't know what to say for a moment.
She lamented Luo Youdu's far-sightedness and secretly lamented the changes in women's education. She hesitated and said, "You have to think about it. Once you raise your flag high, the Xiao family's suppression of the Ba Li family will be even worse."
The Xiao family, a descendant of the Khitan family, is not of the same origin.
Yelu Abaoji, the Taizu of the Liao Dynasty, admired Liu Bang and often praised himself as Liu Bang. After establishing the political power, he felt that the reason why the Han Emperor Liu Bang was able to establish immortal achievements and create the prosperous territory of the Han Dynasty was due to Prime Minister Xiao He, so he named his mother and grandmother's family members
The surnames Baoli and Yishi were all given to the "Xiao family".
Therefore, the descendants of the Xiao family were also divided into two branches: the Li family and the Yoshi family.
Xiao Siwen and Xiao Hunian belong to the Baoli family.
The Bali family has always been stronger than the Yoshiro family and is in a dominant position.
But with Xiao Siwen's death, Yelu Bishe did not dare to reuse the Baoli family, so he raised the Yishi family.
Due to the loss of strength within the Bali family, they gradually blamed Xiao Siwen's lineage, feeling that it was because of him that the Bali family lost power.
Yelvbishe also re-employed people from the Baoli family who opposed Xiao Siwen's lineage, which caused Xiao Siwen's main lineage to be marginalized.
Xiao Shu was defeated, and Xiao Talin also left Khitan in the clouds because of this.
But no matter what, you can still survive despite being ostracized.
Now that Xiao Hunian is using the banner of Xiao Siwen, the situation is different.
Xiao Shulu Lie was aware of Xiao Siwen's influence. As a Khitan resident in Tokyo, he was unqualified. But as the head of the Xiao family, his kindness in taking care of the Xiao family was better than that of any previous head of the family.
Xiao Hunian said: "It's just suppression. Yelvbishe doesn't dare to mess around. At most, it's just to keep them under strict guard and not let them respond. At first, I thought that His Majesty's goal was the Xiao family. Now that I think about it carefully,
Your Majesty’s purpose is not the Xiao family, but to give all the Khitans an excuse to surrender. He doesn’t care what happens to the Xiao family, he just wants to destroy the Khitan country."
Xiao Shu and Lu Lie had mixed feelings in their hearts.
Xiao Talin didn't say anything. He looked at Xiao Chuo opposite him, put his two little fingers into his mouth, pulled them out, and then pulled his lower eyelids with his fingers, making a face.
Xiao Chuo rolled his eyes, looking disgusted and childish, and continued to listen to Xiao Hunian's words.
Xiao Hunian continued: "I have no intention of strengthening our Xiao family. Over the years in Bianjing, I have a certain understanding of His Majesty's character. He will not allow a so-called descendant surname to appear in the Central Plains like the Khitan."
Seeing the complicated expression of Xiao Shu and Lu Lie, she knew what he was thinking and said: "There is nothing we can do about the things in this world. There is a hero like Your Majesty in the Central Plains. Regardless of you and me, it is only a matter of time before the Khitan will be destroyed. Besides, the Khitan royal family
If I want to kill my father, I would like to cut him into pieces with a thousand knives. What does the Khitan Kingdom have to do with me?"
"Only this Khitan bloodline is hard to give up, but His Majesty is kind and can't tolerate the Khitan Kingdom, but he has no ill intentions towards the Khitan people. This is not only true for the Khitan people, but also for Tubo, Dali, Uighur, and Goryeo. Above this temple,
There are many officials from other tribes. Sometimes, in order to keep talents from other tribes in the Central Plains, high-ranking officials will be given generous salaries. As long as the Khitan people sincerely surrender, I can guarantee that with their current benevolence, the Khitan people will only get by.
better."
Xiao Shulu Lie has no doubt about this.
The Eastern Khitan is now developing well, recovering the Jurchens, attacking Goryeo, and opening mines to forge iron armor, but all of this requires a lot of civilian labor.
Under the pressure of the Central Plains, the Eastern Khitans are now under high pressure, from officials to the people.
In this situation, the people of East Khitan are living a miserable life.
Xiao Shulu Lie looked at his heroic and clear-thinking niece in front of him, thinking about Xiao Siwen's kindness, and said: "I have sworn to follow my clan brother thirty years ago, and now that my clan brother has an heir, there is no exception."
Hearing his father's agreement, Xiao Talin didn't bother teasing Xiao Chuo and said without hesitation: "When I was little, I was the clan sister's pawn. Now that I'm older, it's the same. I'm willing to serve as the clan sister's vanguard."
Tarili Mo is Xiao Tarin’s nickname.
Xiao Hunian looked at Xiao Tarin with a determined look on his face and praised with a smile: "You are worthy of being a good son of the Xiao family."
Xiao Chuo listened to them with great interest. Seeing that they had agreed on something, he asked: "Uncle Shu Lulie, how is my second sister doing now?"
Xiao Hunian also looked at Xiao Shulu Lie expectantly.
Xiao Shulu Lie hesitated for a while and said: "It's not optimistic. Ever since Youdu Mansion returned to Shangjing, the second lady has been depressed and rarely smiles. After the elder brother passed away, her blood flow attacked her heart and she was plagued by various diseases. Her life was difficult.
It's hard to take care of myself." When he saw Xiao Hunian and Xiao Chuo's face looked sad, he hurriedly said: "Brother of the clan also has some old friends in the court, and the Xiao family protects him, so he has no worries about food and housing."
Xiao Chuo looked at Xiao Hunian and said: "The eldest sister must rescue the second sister. Yanyan is still young and has to take care of her grandfather. She cannot go with the eldest sister."
Xiao Hunian's delicate body trembled slightly, and she almost couldn't bear the tears anymore.
Ever since Yelu dilie went south, Xiao Hunian knew that he was about to go north to Monan.
But how to tell Xiao Chuo, Xiao Hunian has been unable to speak.
Historically, the relationship between their sisters was not good, but now that they have been captured in Bianjing and dependent on each other, their relationship is far beyond that of ordinary biological sisters.
Xiao Hunian knew that Xiao Chuo must be retained in order to gain the greatest support from Luo Youdu.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chuo actually asked to stay.
Xiao Hunian knew very well that his sister was precocious, so he must have known that his identity would be turned into a hostage when he made such a proposal.
At this moment, Luo Youdu's imperial edict reached their ears.
The four people hurriedly came to the front yard to receive the order.
Huber was old and had inconvenient legs and feet, so he walked out slowly.
The herald ignored the imperial edict and stepped forward to help Uncle Hu, saying: "Stop, Mr. Hu. Your Majesty has already made a decree. You are old and there is no need to welcome him."
After taking good care of Uncle Hu, the official who passed the order read out the decree: to confer Xiao Hunian as the general of the left army, to command the Xiao family's troops. The Xiao family's troops were placed in Zhangyuan County, Xinzhou.
After the Khitan captured the sixteen states of Yanyun, they re-planned the nine states of Yun.
Luo Youdu naturally changed to the old system, and Zhangyuan County in Xinzhou became the legendary Zhangjiakou.
It is located at the junction of three parties, connecting the Mobei Khitan and the Mongolian grassland to the north, Zhongjing of the East Khitan to the east, Datong Yunzhong to the northwest, and Youzhou Prefecture to the southeast.
Luo Youdu arranged for Xiao Hunian to carry the banner of the Xiao family here, with obvious intentions.
Xiao Hunian swept away his daughter's emotions and loudly accepted the order.
Xiao Shu stood up, and Xiao Talin took his leave at the right time.
Xiao Hunian looked at Uncle Hu who was not far away, kowtowed to him respectfully three times, and said: "Hu Nian will not be able to take care of Uncle Huber in the future. I hope Uncle Huber will be healthy and live a long life."
With a bit of reluctance on his face, Uncle Hub sighed: "Why are you doing this? I can just leave the matter of revenge to Your Majesty. I know you have intentions for Your Majesty, but I am still a bit shy in front of Your Majesty. Let me tell you.
It is not difficult to achieve this kind of marriage."
Two red clouds floated on Xiao Hunian's face. He hesitated a little, but firmly said: "Hu Nian went north not just for revenge. He also wanted to test his ambition and hope that Hu Bo will succeed."
Huber shook his head and sighed, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"
He said and slowly turned around and walked towards the inner hall.
"sister!"
Xiao Chuo pulled the corner of Xiao Hunian's clothes.
Even though I think about it openly, I still can’t help but feel reluctant to give it up.
Xiao Hunian hugged her sister and said softly: "I'm sorry!"
Xiao Chuo said with a smile: "Is there anything I'm sorry for, sister? Father's hatred is yours and Yanyan's. That means Yanyan is young and has no ability. Otherwise, it might not be my sister's turn to go north!"
Xiao Hunian muttered: "Yanyan is so good. From now on, you must be careful when you are alone in Bianjing."
Instead, Xiao Chuo comforted Xiao Hunian and said softly: "Sister, don't worry, Yanyan will make Grandpa Hu happy as always. With Grandpa Hu here, let alone Bianjing, even
Even in the entire Central Plains, no one can touch me. Besides, Yan Yan can often enter the palace now, and has relationships with the Queen, Concubine De, and Concubine Xian. They all like Yan Yan. Grandpa Chai Kehong, Grandpa Dou Yujun,
Yanyan has a lot of backers, so it will be fine."
Xiao Hunian watched Xiao Chuo counting his backers with his fingers, and talking to his sister about his personal network...
Seeing that Xiao Hunian was a little shocked, she continued: "Yanyan has had more opportunities to meet His Majesty recently, and she also has the opportunity to make him a patron..."
