I’m The King Chapter 1068: :East and West (61)
It is mid-August, which is the hottest time of the year. Yuyang just had a heavy rainstorm that lasted for several hours yesterday, causing the Yishui River to surge, and the roaring water to swirl Pentrating down, the muddy river water hits the river embankment from time to time, and from time to time a piece of river embankment is hit by the rapid river water. Amidst the sound of clattering, soil mixed with stones falls into the water, and a gap appears under the embankment .
Standing on the embankment with his hands behind his back, Gao Yuan frowned tightly as he watched the rolling river. The prairie enters the river, then crosses Luliang Mountain, and finally reaches the Yishui River in Yuyang.
The catastrophe that Yuyang suffered made Gao Yuan who had traveled all the way full of anger. For Lu Chao, he only had four words of evaluation in his heart at this time, and he was insane.
But he had to admit that Lu Chao's move was indeed targeting the soft threat of the Han Dynasty. Pensions, relief, and rebuilding of the homeland would all make the already weak economy of the Han Dynasty worse. Yuyang itself was one of the big granaries of the Han Dynasty. First, the price of food in Dahan is only going to rise this year.
Compared with opponents like Li Xin and Wang Xiao, Gao Yuan has even more headaches for people like Lu Chao, because Li Xin and Wang Xiao, the older generation of military strategists, generally leave room for their actions and will not do big things to the people. Large-scale massacres will not cause large-scale destruction of people's livelihood, but a guy like Lu Chao who will use any means to attack the enemy is much more difficult to deal with.
Because he has no bottom line.
At the beginning, I broke Shannan County City because I took advantage of Mrs. Lu's trust in me. I let Lu Chao go with guilt. I didn't expect that ten years later, this person who was still a bit of a scholar would grow up. For a monster like today.
I'm afraid I still have my share of the credit!
There was a wry smile on the corner of Gao Yuan's mouth, he drank and pecked, it was God's will, Lu Chao was probably sent down by God to torture him, how to deal with him, Gao Yuan has not yet come to a definite conclusion.
"I'm afraid this heavy rain will make the victims of Yuyang worse?" Gao Yuan glanced at Du Shenghao, the governor of Yuyang beside him. The governor himself is from Yuyang and was introduced by Jiang Jiaquan One of the group of people who defected to Gaoyuan very early. He used to be a handsome scholar, but now he is unshaven and haggard. You can even see some stains on the robe.
Hearing Gao Yuan's question, Du Shenghao nodded solemnly, "God is not beautiful, this heavy rain came at such an untimely time, most of the victims have not returned home, and they are all living in temporary tents." In the huts built by Peng and myself, I went to several settlements yesterday. Many huts were destroyed by the flood. Some victims near the river failed to evacuate in time when the flood came. Because of the landslide on the mountain, it was buried inside, and now the county is organizing manual excavation, even if no one can be rescued, the body must be dug out!"
"How many casualties?" Gao Yuan took a deep breath.
"Preliminary statistics show that the death toll has already exceeded a hundred." Du Shenghao gritted his teeth, "Lu Chao, the son of a bitch, will die one day. Such an inhumane thing can be done, Your Majesty, That Yang Dasha was as fearful of the enemy as a tiger, he fought timidly and avoided the enemy, and asked the king to punish him severely."
Gao Yuan shook his head lightly, "Mr. Du, didn't Zeng Xianyi tell you? Oh, yes, you are a civil servant. It is normal that Zeng Xianyi didn't tell you about these martial arts. At that time, Yang It was right for Dasha not to send troops, because later it was discovered that Lu Chao had set a trap and ambushed a large number of soldiers, if Yang Dasha went out of the city, it would be a disaster."
"Is there such a thing?" Du Shenghao said in surprise: "Isn't the king justifying Yang Dasha? He is notoriously stupid and bold.”
Gao Yuan smiled: "Yang Dasha also came from a poor family, Du Junshou cared about the common people so he scolded him, how could he not understand?"
"I will apologize to him the next time I see him!" Du Shenghao was silent for a while.
"That's not necessary, maybe Yang Dasha has already forgotten about it now, Yuyang disaster relief is not only a matter of your Yuyang County, the imperial court will allocate a large amount of funds, food and various other things to you. This time, the special war tax bill has been passed, and the imperial court has a lot more money.”
"Thank you, King, for your compassion for the people of Yuyang!" Du Shenghao.
"If one side is in trouble, all parties will support it, not to mention that it is my duty as a king to let the people under my command live a good life. I haven't done it well!" Gao Yuan sighed, "This time Qin's move, It was indeed beyond my expectation, but fortunately, we won this battle after all, it was a little bit better than the worst."
"Your Majesty, a boat is coming from the other side!" He Weiyuan pointed at the widened river and said loudly, "It must be that Li Ru coming."
"This old man has taught such a crazy disciple, I must scold him later!" Du Shenghao on the side said angrily.
Hearing these words, Gao Yuan was amused even though there were thousands of worries in his heart. It seems that what happened in Yuyang this time has really completely changed this scholar who was originally a scholar who did not see evil and said nothing evil. It's dirty words.
Gao Yuan coughed and rinsed: "Mr. Du, go get busy. Yuyang County is not only suffering from human disasters, but also natural disasters. If you are busy, you don't have to stay with me here."
Du Shenghao was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, what the king said was right. Now Yuyang County really has a lot of clues. Before the king came, he had to come to meet and accompany him, but in order to scold Li It is not worth it if Ru pauses and wastes his precious time.
"Your Majesty is right. I'm confused. If I have time to scold this old bastard, I might as well do something practical. This old bastard!" Du Shenghao glanced sideways and was slowly The boat approaching here took a deep breath, turned around and hurried away.
On the boat in the river, Li Ru sat cross-legged on the bow, with two guards standing behind him. By the side of the boat, the soldiers from the four foreign Han countries were waving their oars, trying their best to fight against the turbulent river, but despite their sweat, the boat was still moving. Slowly drifting downwards. When it landed on the shore, it deviated hundreds of meters from the previously scheduled docking location.
With the support of the guards, Li Ru jumped off the bow of the boat and stepped on the ground with both feet. He felt a little dizzy and his feet were a little fluttering. Traveling across mountains and rivers, what kind of wind and waves have never been encountered, and when there was such a river, I felt dizzy?
Someone from the Han country has already greeted him, "Master Li, please!"
After walking a certain distance, Li Ru's presbyopic eyes finally saw the figure standing on the embankment clearly. Shui Hepan met with him and did not specify the candidate for the negotiation. He originally thought that the person who would come was not his younger brother Jiang Jiaquan, but Yan Shenghao, another important figure in the political affairs of the Han Dynasty, but he did not expect that it would be Gao Yuan himself.
Gao Yuan turned around, looked down at him in the distance, and nodded slightly.
Li Ru hurriedly walked up to Gao Yuan, clasped his fists in both hands, and bowed to the ground: "Li Ru has seen His Highness the King of Han!"
"No need!" Gao Yuan waved his hand and said, "Mr. Jiang is also my teacher and friend. You are Mr. Jiang's brother. I can't afford your gift."
"No!" Li Ru said, "It is not Jiang Jiaquan's senior brother Li Ru who is negotiating with His Royal Highness the King of Han today, but Li Ru of Daqin."
Gao Yuan nodded: "Well, since that's the case, I will accept this gift. Mr. Li Ru, please come up, the scenery here is beautiful."
"If you stand taller, you will naturally see more scenery, but if the foundation stone under your feet is not solid enough, you will easily fall miserably. Your Highness, the embankment under your feet is collapsing!" Li Ru walked away with a smile To Gao Yuan's side, looking at the surging river, said.
"Everyone Li said well!" Gao Yuan nodded, "It's my decision to set the negotiation location by the Yishui River, do you know why?"
"His Majesty the King of Han has always acted unexpectedly, so I would like to ask for advice." Li Rudao.
Gao Yuan smiled slightly, turned around, and looked at Li Ru: "When I was a little Fufeng county captain, I was ordered by Prime Minister Yan Ye to lead troops here to fight Zhao Guo. There are only a few hundred soldiers around me, Ye Xiang back then, haha, and of course my future father-in-law, must think that I am dead."
"Because of that sentence, when my hair reaches my waist, you can marry me?" Li Ru laughed, "That is a well-known sentence that has been passed down for a while, and I don't know how many idiots have gone crazy?"
"That was the most dangerous battle in my life." Gao Yuan turned his head and looked at the surging river, "At that time, Zhao Guo was still a giant to Yan Guo, with a powerful Zhao Jun in front of him, Behind me, there was a boss with ulterior motives, and beside me, there were only three hundred brothers who followed me through life and death. At that time, I really had no foundation in my heart."
"But then you won." Li Ru said indifferently: "It was also this battle that made you stand out, and since then you have embarked on a road of Qingyun, and this is how you are now."
"Qingyun Avenue?" Gao Yuan chuckled, "It is precisely because the battlefield of Yishuihe was of great significance to me, so I put this negotiation here to tell myself that no matter what I do now No matter how powerful you are, don’t forget that you were covered with thin ice, no matter what you do, you must be cautious as if facing an abyss, trembling, step by step.”
"Well said!" Li Ru looked at Gao Yuan and clapped his hands in praise: "It's no wonder His Highness the King of Han has achieved what he is now. Just this mentality alone is not something ordinary people can have. Your Highness Han, I think we are now Can we start?"
"You can start at any time!" Gao Yuan laughed, "It's right by the Yishui River, right by the surging river, let us two have a good talk about this time!"
