Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

"Lady!" The tall, pale-faced civil servant turned his head to look at the tent door, and called out excitedly. This young civil servant is indeed handsome, with a square face, fair skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes... He is also quite tall, no matter what age people are, they will not think such a man is ugly. The voice is magnetic and emotional, Guo Shao estimated that it would be very lethal to women.

And it's not the kind of sissy person, it can only be said to be refined. He is full of Confucianism, with a well-organized posture and a vague official demeanor. At first glance, he looks very upright.

The fair and delicate skin of civil servants looks like a well-maintained person in a big city; on the other hand, Guo Shao, who originally had a heroic brow, but looks like a rough guy on a construction site, only a person who is exposed to coolies in the wind and sun can tan like that, especially his palms are big and rough.

The civil servant's name is Li Liangyou, who is Bai Sanniang's ex-husband. His face was moved, and he walked forward, but Bai Sanniang was already there in a daze, unable to recover for a moment.

Li Liangyou had a remorseful expression on his face: "My lady, I wronged you that year! It's all my fault that I was too young and ignorant to know that you lived in my friend's house, so I misunderstood you on the spur of the moment..."

He shook his head as he spoke, almost crying in pain.

How could Bai Sanniang bear such affection, she immediately said: "You finally understand, why would I steal someone behind your back? I will never do that kind of thing!"

Guo Shao glanced at Bai Sanniang's expression, turned his head to look at Zuo You, and muttered softly: "It seems that being a woman is not easy, and those who have no brains will suffer."

Li Liangyou said: "How did you get here all these years?"

Bai Sanniang said with tears in her eyes: "I won't mention it...it's not easy. How is your husband doing in Chengdu? You are a beautiful lady, don't let him down..."

Li Liangyou sighed and said: "Because I was married to her back then, I thought I had let you down, and I couldn't have another person, so I had to make you wronged. Now I have no regrets, and I am very sad... Now I can only let her be my concubine, my first wife as my wife, and treat you well from now on."

Bai Sanniang wept with joy: "Is everything my husband said true?"

Li Liangyou said: "It's a pity that the country is ruined now. As a minister of the subjugated country... I just don't know if there is any chance to make up for it."

Bai Sanniang was slightly taken aback, looked up at Guo Shao and said, "Marshal Guo..."

"It's hard for an upright official to do housework, what can I do?" Guo Shao put his palm on his forehead, and he looked at Bai Sanniang with a piercing expression, "But as...an acquaintance, I still have to remind Bai Shengshou, why don't you think carefully about the ins and outs first?"

Bai Sanniang said: "The prodigal son will not change his money when he turns back. He is my husband no matter what time he is. No matter what he has done, I will forgive him."

Guo Shao put his hand on his chin, his eyes lowered, as if he was thinking.

Bai Sanniang said sternly: "Marshal Guo, remember the promise we made? Lan'er helped your friend see a doctor, and you helped me find my husband. Now that I have found it, do you want to kill him? When Marshal Guo sees Lan'er in the future, what do you say to her?"

Guo Shao didn't want to waste too much time on this kind of nonsense, so he quickly cut through the mess, speaking quickly but fluently: "The fairness of merit and demerit is mainly about rewarding civil and martial arts. Li Liangyou has no serious crimes. If he is wrong, you can forgive him. It is human nature to talk about things like this.

"Thank you, Marshal Guo." Bai Sanniang said happily, "Although Marshal Guo is a general, he has a heart of benevolence and righteousness."

Guo Shao said again: "Li Liangyou's life is safe, but you can no longer be an official. You will be dismissed immediately and will not be hired. Take your wives and concubines home and live in peace."

Li Liangyou said in shock: "Why... Li Hao also..."

Guo Shao didn't seem to be talking to Li Liangyou. He looked back at the generals on the left and right and said: "What I need is people who rely on their ability and do practical things. What I need is the internal rules of fair competition, not the relationship between the profiteers. Otherwise, the national power of the Great Zhou will fall into a quagmire, lose vitality, and accumulate many disadvantages. Although it is big and weak; Liao is a strong enemy. We can't blame the opponent for being too strong, but we must strengthen ourselves!"

Zuo You said happily: "Heaven's movement is vigorous, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement. Mencius said that in five hundred years, there will be a sage..."

"It's over." Guo Shao waved his hand and said, "You are all dispersed. Once the soldiers and horses entering the city are assembled, it is a matter of time to enter the city and accept surrender."

... Guo Shao sat in front of a rough chopping board inlaid with wooden boards, scratching the back of his head. I just felt that it was not easy to worry about the power, so I picked up a pen and wrote a few words on my pamphlet: The concept of governance, agree with Da Zhou.

The concept is settled, and he thinks this is the most sensible direction. But how to achieve it is still at a loss; after returning to the court, let those experienced prime ministers make suggestions.

In the early stage of the occupation, Guo Shao thought about it and wrote: reduce the damage caused by the war in Shu. Keep the taxation and other aspects as they are, and don't act rashly; in terms of military occupation, choose generals who can restrain the soldiers and have benevolence.

Then he took out a large stack of papers from his cloth pocket, and seeing Zuo You was looking at the file, he handed it over and said, "These reports from the various armies and commanders, please help me sort them out."

Zuo You took it over and said, "Yes, my lord. I'll take a look as soon as possible."

Guo Shaodao: "Sort out an entry, it should be simple and clear, so that soldiers who don't know how to read can understand it. First, publicize the merits and casualties of each unit in each battle, and don't decide how to award rewards, so that everyone knows what merits they have achieved.

Then I went to various departments, and if someone felt that there was something wrong with it, I would revise it. "

Zuo You laughed and said, "My lord cares so much, I'm afraid the soldiers won't care so much."

Guo Shaodao: "As long as the conditions allow, we must be fair. We have to make a gesture. Only by fighting hard and fighting can we get the rewards we deserve, and our army will have the fighting spirit. Otherwise, we will be treated the same no matter what we do. Who wants to rush forward to die?"

Zuo You thought: "So, Shi Yanchao has made a lot of contributions."

Guo Shaodao: "So he is happy and carefree. He can't be promoted for the time being. After returning to the court, he will be given some official positions that can get more salary."

Although he was cursing, he still held his breath in his heart: hit Liao! The Liao army is not invulnerable, let alone a great power with huge ships and cannons. What can't be moved?

Youyun Sixteen States, for modern people who understand a little bit of history, it has been a thousand years, and they all feel that it is a permanent scar! Not to mention that it has caused people to sigh for a thousand years, even the ancients have been thinking about it. For example, Chai Rong, who is very talented and broad-minded, is all about regaining Youyun Sixteen States, because it is a land that can excite the world. Whoever can take it back will be regarded as a god-like figure, and his status is far superior to that of ordinary monarchs.

So here comes the question: If the national power and combat power are not as good as Liao, how can we take it back? Does shouting help?

Guo Shao suppressed the burning ambition in his heart and endured it for the time being.

At this moment, Lu Chengyong came in, bowed his head and whispered in Guo Shao's ear: "An eunuch who came with the envoys of Shu Kingdom asked Jing Niang to call her into her tent.

Guo Shao said: "I know. Don't ask, I can trust her. She should come and tell me herself. If she doesn't come, there must be her reasons."

Guo Shao recalled Zhao Kuangyin's visit to Jingniang before, and Jingniang also took the initiative to tell him...Compared to Zhao Kuangyin whose conflicts intensified day and night at that time, what do the eunuchs of Shu who have already perished have to worry about?
