Chapter 661 Forgotten

"Taiwei, what are the Han army doing?" On the wall of Yecheng, watching the Han army not attacking the city every day, but instead began to dig ravines and lay wooden tracks. Several Wei army generals gathered beside Sima Yi and asked in confusion.

"The food and water are cut off, and Yecheng is trapped!" Sima Yi looked at the Han army soldiers who were digging ravines outside the city and sighed. It seemed that the coach on the opposite side was Liu Yi, and Pang Tong could not fight like this!

"Hey, Yecheng's food and grass are enough for the entire city's military and civilians in one year, and there is Xuanwu Lake. How can he be defeated?" A general sneered: "Give us a chance to breathe! Let's see who can consume whom!"

"During this period, he can do a lot of things, such as comforting the people's hearts, replacing officials, and capturing some unbreakable cities..." At the end, Sima Yi sighed. Although the battle lasted for more than a year, he had a thorough understanding of Liu Yi. This person was actually not difficult to understand, but it was because of this that he was desperate.

When the generals around him heard this, they couldn't help but feel silent. Liu Yi wanted to trap Yecheng and then pulled out the roots of the Great Wei little by little. Even if they could defend Yecheng, so what if the other party obviously did not give him a chance to turn the tables.

"Taiwei, this..." Xiahou Ru looked at Sima Yi.

"Don't ask me, I don't know." Sima Yi shook his head. Cutting flesh with a blunt knife is the most painful. Liu Yi is obviously not good at fighting, but with his ability to build a building, he eats from the south to the north. It's really a trick, and he eats it all over the world!

In this world, the opponent Sima Yi doesn't want to face the least is Liu Yi.

All the generals were silent when they heard this.

In March of the fourth year of Yanxi, Liu Yi initially surrounded Yecheng with the city wall. With this city wall, Liu Yi did not have to leave all 200,000 troops here. He ordered Wei Yan, Zhang Bao, Guan Ping and Liao Hua to guard each side and leave sufficient troops, Liu Yi began to lay tracks and build sites in various parts of Jizhou.

The Central Plains was taken down and everything was in trouble. It was a time to make great efforts to prosper the economy. The stonehenge in Hanoi was first demolished, and then began to pull cement, glass and steel from the audience. First, build dams along several places where floods are prone to, and then build farms, pastures, and fish ponds.

In June, Jiang Wei pacified Liaodong and was ordered to station in Yuyang to defend against the Xianbei invasion. Pang Tong also captured the remaining counties and counties of Jizhou such as Changshan in the same month. In the same month, Liu Yi submitted a letter to the court that Yecheng had been trapped and killed, and the army did not need to be stranded. 50,000 troops could be left to defend Yecheng. The rest of the troops could be sent back to various places to maintain public order. Although the Central Plains have been pacified, many of the Wei army that Cao Shuang had defeated at the time became bandits and caused disasters to all directions, and the security problems were extremely serious.

After the replacement of officials from various counties in Jizhou, Pang Tong led his troops to the dynasty, leaving only Liu Yi to start laying tracks on a large scale in Jizhou. At the same time, the Central Plains region also began to design a dense track network, and after the public security was slightly stable, it began to build ground.

September, Chang'an.

Looking at the new memoir sent by Liu Yi, Liu Chan had a headache.

"Your Majesty, but has the war on the front line changed?" Huang Hao looked at Liu Chan's wink and asked carefully.

"If this is the case, it will be easy to solve!" Liu Chan smiled bitterly: "Sikong is asking me for money again and is preparing to build a port in the Bohai Sea."

"As the commander of the three armies, Sikong did not try to break the enemy in Yecheng, but repaired roads and paved tracks everywhere. Is there something..." Huang Hao said carefully.

"Oh, you mean the Wei Dynasty." Liu Chan thought for a while and said, "There are 30,000 garrisons there. Sikong has trapped Yecheng to death with the city wall. I'm afraid that the Yecheng defenders have not yet known that most of our troops have withdrawn."

It is a bit absurd to think about it when surrounding a city with more than 100,000 troops and hundreds of thousands of people, but Liu Yi has done it, and it has been a year since.

"Now Jizhou has made great progress under the control of Sikong. This time, Sikong wrote a letter to build a city in Youzhou to protect the grasslands and the scale is to serve as a supporting capital. In addition, there is a rail network from Youzhou to Jizhou, and the Bohai Bay." Liu Chan rubbed his temples and said, "In addition, I heard that rail transit from all over the Central Plains must be prepared. In the next ten years, Sikong will prepare to build several important towns in the Central Plains. As the core of our Han Dynasty, there is also a bridge that can cross the Yangtze River!"

Huang Hao didn't understand it, but looking at Liu Chan's attitude, it was obviously not a fault for Liu Yi. He smiled and said, "Sikong did this, and was also busy for the prosperity of our Han Dynasty. Your Majesty, now Guanzhong, Shu, Jingzhou, and Xiliang are harvesting every year. The tax revenue alone of the court is much higher than in previous years. Although Sikong spent a lot of money, after success, it would be beneficial to our Han Dynasty for a long time."

"Do you still understand this?" Liu Chan glanced at Huang Hao and said.

"I don't understand, but I just heard all the officials say this every day. After hearing this too much, I know a little bit." Huang Hao said hurriedly.

"Yes, Sikong asked for 10 billion to build Erdu, but now Erdu is in great prosperity. More than 10 billion yuan have been earned over the years. This is indeed the case, but do you know how much Sikong wants this time?" Liu Chan said with a wry smile.

"Ten billion?" Huang Hao said carefully.

"Ha~" Liu Chan glanced at Huang Hao disdainfully and said, "This project is so huge. Sikong uses the power of various places. All the prefectures and counties in the Central Plains contribute their efforts. Sikong only needs to run around, which will take ten years and ten billion? This time Sikong wants to build the entire Central Plains! This time, just what I just said will take 130 billion. The national treasury does not have so much money. There must be a lot of coin minting, and it will not be raised until next year at the earliest."

When Huang Hao heard this, his heart twitched violently for a few times, and it almost stopped.

Huang Hao's wealth is quite large. Although his official position is not high over the years, he has sent a lot of money and wealth for himself in private. However, over the years, his wealth has been worth tens of millions of dollars. Huang Hao just listened to this kind of data that cost hundreds of billions of dollars.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." After a long time, Huang Hao felt that his heart could be beating and tried to control his voice, but there was still a tremolo. Looking at Liu Chan, he had a smile that was even worse than crying: "As soon as I decided today, I think it is not appropriate to build a large scale of construction, and we should put peace to the people first."

"This is not a building of a palace. What Sikong did is a benefit to the people. In the past, Xiliang, Nanzhong, Western Regions, and Guanzhong, there was no place that had just passed the war, but what Sikong did aroused public anger?" Liu Chan smiled and said, "If I built a palace, the people of the world might be able to scold me, but I was helping them, and the money I paid was also from the national treasury and had not increased taxes. Why wouldn't it be safe for the people?"

"But this is too..." Huang Hao didn't know what he should say, more than 100 billion. The whole man had to take out so much money and he had to speed up the coins. It would take a year to cast them out. Huang Hao felt that Liu Chan was crazy. No, it was because the world was crazy. The court spent money like this. The world was immediately built when it was recovered. The people of the world didn't have much complaints? What is this?

"I also want to see if I can see the true prosperity that Sikong said in my lifetime!" Liu Chan guide Liu Yi described the scene of prosperity that he had for himself. Luoyang was everywhere in the world, with people living in peace, rich people, strong country, and many talents. Just thinking about it, I felt a little excited.

"Okay, national affairs, don't worry about it. I will discuss with the second prime minister tomorrow. By the way, you go to Yecheng for a year, and I don't want to waste it anymore. If Cao Fang is willing to surrender, I will be the marquis to protect him from the wealth of the Cao clan for three generations." Liu Chan looked at Huang Hao and said, "Sikong should be in Beihai now. You can go there and call Sikong up. This surrender to Yecheng requires Sikong to preside over the presidency."

A year later, if Liu Yi hadn't sent a memorial to ask for money this time, Liu Chan would have forgotten Yecheng.

"Here!" Huang Hao hurriedly bowed to accept the order. After Liu Chan wrote the edict, he took the delegation to Xuchang on a rail cart, and then transferred to the carriage in Xuchang and rushed to Beihai.

...

"Why, the Wei Dynasty hasn't surrendered yet?" When Liu Yi saw Huang Hao, he was supervising the construction of a port. He was preparing to get out the steamboat, so this time he built a steel yard, a cement factory, and a place to hoard coal. When he heard Huang Hao's intention, he said a little surprised.

"Never!" Huang Hao felt his chest blocked. This was probably the most irresponsible Yuan dumping throughout the ages, right? The army threw it aside and ran around to build the world. This looked like the head commander of the three armies should have?

"Well, I'll go there myself. The 30,000 troops are stationed in Yecheng, which is quite food-intensive, and there is no need!" Liu Yi nodded while fumbled his chin, and immediately took Huang Hao and his delegation to Yecheng.

Three days later, when Liu Yi returned to Yecheng, he saw Wei Yan and Guan Ping compete in the school field. When he saw Liu Yi coming, he hurried to pay a visit.

"Why are you all coming down? Don't you have to defend the city?" Liu Yi frowned.

"The governor has not returned for a year, and perhaps it is not only the current situation in Yecheng." Wei Yan sighed and said to Liu Yi: "At the end, there will be beacon towers everywhere on the city wall, and there will be high platforms on all sides. Every day, people use a thousand-mile mirror to monitor the enemy's situation, but if there are any abnormal movements, we will know, and..."

"Hmm?" Liu Yi looked at Wei Yan, and what?

"Governor, did you forget the city gate when you built the city wall?" Guan Ping asked carefully: "Even if the Wei army came out to attack, there was no way to attack. We just need to defend the city wall."

"Uh..." Liu Yi was silent for a moment and said, "This is also because Sima Yi was worried that you were young and could not withstand the excitement, so you never set up a city gate."

Wei Yan and Guan Ping were speechless when they heard this. They were about the same age as Liu Yi, and even if they were young, they were not a few years younger. Even Wu Ban and Liao Hua were both veterans, so why were they young?

"This time I came here to surrender to the Wei Dynasty. Your Majesty has issued a surrender order. I hope Cao Fang will not mislead himself." Liu Yi said with a smile.

"The governor will go in person?" Wei Yan frowned.

"Of course not. Huang Zhongchang went first. When the result is achieved, I'm talking to them." Liu Yi smiled and shook his head.

"This..." Huang Hao looked at Liu Yi with a confused look on his face.

"Go, now, the Wei Dynasty has no courage to kill our Han envoy." Liu Yi patted Huang Hao's shoulder and said, "Be tough, don't lose the prestige of my great man."

"Here~"
