Ji Chang's words attracted the attention of everyone around him.
Voices within the Han State about Liu Yan should be proclaimed emperor had already appeared, and at that time, Qingzhou had just been fully recovered, and the war with Shijie was not clear.
Once again, the most enthusiastic voice of the emperor was that Liu Yan ordered the construction of the Yanhuang Temple on the side of Mount Tai, after all, once the Yanhuang Temple was built, it would be a competition for the name of Zhengshuo.
In the second year of Yuan Shuo, during the worship of the ancestors of Yanhuang Temple, Ji Chang was originally going to take the lead in encouraging Liu Yan to claim the emperor, but the matter was over before it was carried out, that is, when Yao Yizhong led hundreds of thousands of troops into Qingzhou, and it was not very appropriate to raise the title of emperor in the face of a strong invasion.
The matter of claiming the emperor has been delayed for various reasons, and the Han State has always been in a state of war, and Liu Yan was basically out on patrol during the second year of Yuan Shuo.
Yuan Shuo was stable for a few months in the third year, but during this period, the wars everywhere changed repeatedly, and it was really difficult to mention the emperor again.
"Emperor" Liu Yan heard Ji Chang's temptation on the way to the barracks, and said with a wry smile: "The old land is only two or three out of ten, what is the emperor." ” Although the Han army repeatedly expanded its territory, Youzhou, Liangzhou, Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Liangzhou, Guangzhou, Jiaozhou, Bingzhou, Ningzhou, and the Western Regions had not yet recovered.
Carefully calculated, according to the scale of the twelve states of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Han State currently has four states, and Bingzhou and Heshuo are still in the hands of Shijie Zhao, Youzhou has Murong Yan State, there is a Li Cheng Han in the west and north of Yizhou, Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Jiaozhou and the south of Yizhou are the small imperial courts of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Liangzhou and half of the Western Regions have Zhang's Liangguo.
The territory in the current state makes Liu Yan really not have the slightest idea of becoming the emperor, he feels that under this scale, the emperor will seem too small, and it is one thing to make people underestimate, I am afraid that what is more troublesome is that with the internal demands of the emperor, it will become more complicated and troublesome.
Ji Chang said the expectations in his heart after a long time, and he shut up when he heard Liu Yan say that.
It's not that he's giving up, he's thinking of more convincing language.
According to Liu Yan's true thoughts, it is not too embarrassing to call the emperor after destroying the Shijie Zhao State and the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and at that time it can be regarded as recovering the old land of the Han family.
Shijie Zhao State and the Eastern Jin Dynasty small court were wiped out, and by the way, the Li family was also cleaned up, and the remaining Zhang Liang State and Murong Yan Kingdom were annexed and eliminated step by step.
Back at the barracks, Liu Yangang wanted to take a rest, but as soon as he lay down, Xun Xian came to report that Ran Min asked for an appointment.
Ran Min came to see him for nothing else, but he needed to know the answer from Liu Yan about Shijie and Zhao Guo's peace.
Shi Hu sent men to Linzi through the war zone in January of the fourth year of Yuan Shuo, and proposed a truce between the two countries, with the two sides using their respective control areas as the border line.
The Han State still did not stop the military operation when receiving Shi Hu's envoys, but did not give a clear refusal, Shi Hu regarded Liu Yan's behavior as negotiable, and later sent several new envoys, the latest one on the Xiangguo side.
The last wave of Shijie envoys presented a new letter of state, accepting the fact of defeat, and at the same time, legally determined the settlement of the existing territory of the Han State, promising that the two sides would not fight again after the truce, and that they could follow the example of the Xiongnu and the Han Empire to marry, and enter into a friendship of mutual non-aggression.
Did the Han Empire and the Xiongnu have any friendly past, there was really a period of time when they really entered the honeymoon period, and the Xiongnu did not go south for several years during the period of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty, but it was the Han Empire that married the princess and brought a huge dowry to the Xiongnu as the Yan clan, and the two sides also set up a urging field at the border to communicate with each other.
Shi Hu is out of what kind of psychology the Han Kingdom has not figured out at all, and it seems that there is no need to figure it out.
Liu Yan didn't know what credentials Shi Jie's last envoys carried, and the reason why he didn't reply to Shi Hu was very simple, that is, there was no need for the two sides to talk at all.
"Yongzeng."
Liu Yan looked at Ran Min, who was wearing regular clothes, and said bluntly: "Han and Jie are not separated, what we have to do is to eliminate, completely exterminate, and leave no one behind." ” Ran Min immediately showed an innocent smile like a child, he liked Liu Yan's words, not only because of his humiliation, as a person with a somewhat Han supremacist mentality in contemporary times, he was very willing to eliminate more Hu people.
"Anyone who is hostile to the Han Dynasty, as a martial artist, is to use the sword and gun in his hand to eliminate them one by one."
Liu Yan never beat around the bush when he spoke to Ran Min, mainly because he was afraid that Ran Min would not understand or misunderstand: "The mission of the Northern Expeditionary Corps is to keep going north until the widow orders to stop." ” "Minister, I see."
Ran Min looked extremely excited, with military power in his hands and no shortage of materials, as a war maniac, he should feel excited and excited.
He suddenly reined in his excitement, and said with a few hesitations: "The minister heard some remarks, which were about the expansion of the army. ” The personnel under the establishment of the Northern Expeditionary Corps swelled to nearly 400,000, about 100,000 were the original establishment, and the rest were incorporated and recruited in the Guangfu District.
Three-tenths of the soldiers in the Guangfu District who were accommodated into the Northern Expeditionary Corps were unorganized people, and the rest were actually some families, heroes and the like.
There is absolutely no misunderstanding about the Northern Expeditionary Corps under Ran Min as another beggar army, which is the structure of most of the army's troops, including uniforms, weapons, and so on.
Liu Yan did not have no opinion in his heart about the complexity of the Northern Expeditionary Corps, improper operation is the rise of a military group, he is naturally not afraid of extermination after an accident, but the country will inevitably have great turmoil.
In addition to the army of the Northern Expeditionary Corps, the 100,000 soldiers and armor equipment are sufficient, and the newly incorporated ones are only nominally under the establishment of the Northern Expeditionary Corps, and the center does not provide battle robes and weapons in addition to the supply of military rations.
"The widow gave you the power to expand your army."
Liu Yan put away the smile on his face and said expressionlessly: "The speed of the army expansion is far beyond the expectations of the widows. ” "You can't say that, Your Majesty."
Ran Min put on a reasonable posture and said: "All the people are fighting Hu, everyone is a soldier, and it is beneficial for the country to be controlled by the ministers, it is better than being unorganized and undisciplined, right?"
The words make sense, the problem is that Liu Yan absolutely can't admit it, he quietly looked at Ran Min and made a gesture of waiting for an explanation.
Ran Min is not a person who is good at words, he was a little embarrassed, and he was silent for a while before saying: "Yes, the minister is expanding too fast, the minister once called the king, how much will make the king suspicious, but the minister has no second heart." ” Liu Yan frowned, and had to admit that Ran Min was Ran Min, he could say anything, and other people would never say such things.
"Yes, the minister is not just to accommodate Han people" Ran Min blushed a little, took a few breaths, and then continued embarrassedly: "It also accommodates a lot of foreign races. ” This is worth studying, on the one hand, Ran Min hates the Hu people, but on the other hand, he is willing to accept the Hu people for his own use, not to say that he is a realist, that is, anyone who can let him use it does not care about his background.
It's no secret that Ran Min took in the Hu people, his method was to let the Hu people change their surnames to Han and join the army as slave soldiers.
Actively rather than passively integrating the Hu people is something Liu Yan is willing to see, although the Han people talk about blood, but also about cultural identity, to know that everything depends on manpower in the era, can make the population who recognize themselves as famous Han people more, I believe that no ruler will refuse.
"The minister's adoption of Hu Chong is to drive them to work hard, and there is absolutely no other meaning."
Ran Min began to look straightforward again: "If you can die one less Han family son, you will die one less, and it is a very cost-effective thing to let the aliens work hard." ” Ran Min's starting point is still not wrong, the mistake is that he did not specifically explain it to the center, no wonder Liu Yan is not at ease, and even the central officials are extremely wary of Ran Min.
"Yongzeng" Liu Yan was very melancholy, so far Ran Min had not figured out the facts, he reminded: "Did you forget something?"
Ran Min was directly stunned and muttered: "Forget something" I don't know if there is no way or I don't care about the source of soldiers collected by the Northern Expeditionary Corps, and there are very few registrations at the time of incorporation, and the establishment is even more chaotic to the point that it does not look like an army, or it will be described as "another begging army".
The beggar army is a fierce man who gets together for his life, and a very small number of core elites will have a clear structure, and more of them have leaders and no officers, so no one knows the specific number of the beggar army, and the battle is all based on a brave spirit.
To be reasonable, according to Ran Min's military literacy, the matter of army establishment should not be ignored, but it really happened, and if an explanation is not given, Liu Yan will not be allowed to think too much, and the center will have bad ideas.

It was Liu Yan who repeatedly reminded Ran Min that finally came to his senses.
"That's called chaos."
Ran Min began to reason again: "After going north, there is no day without fighting, and people come all the time when they hear the voice, and there is an extreme lack of literate people in the army, either they don't do it, but they can't do it." ” Liu Yan twisted his head to the side, and his cheeks twitched uncontrollably.
To put it mildly, at the current literacy rate, there is not necessarily one in a thousand people who can read.
Literacy alone is not enough, the army hierarchy has its own process, which is related to organization and control, and the simple point is order, and order is a luxury in the new Guangfu District.
"In addition to the original establishment" Liu Yan turned his head to look at Ran Min again, and asked with blazing eyes: "Is there a problem with the registration of the rest of the transfers?"
The Northern Expeditionary Corps is now relatively open, Huguan and Hukou Pass need to directly put pressure on the Shijie Zhao Army, and the Jizhou direction is also deployed with the callback of the Lutai Corps, and it is not a simple matter to move.
"You are the king, you can say whatever you want."
Ran Min didn't hide his rejection, maybe he felt that it was not good to talk like this, and he explained it very hard later: "There is no problem with the transfer at all, but I am afraid that something will happen." ” Liu Yan worked very hard to control his cheeks from twitching, he is a person who understands Ran Min, that is, a dissolute and uninhibited iron-blooded man, he may not think much about what he says, just out of his most real and real needs.
"Southern tune, how to tune" Liu Yan pulled an end note, tried very hard to hide his disgust, and continued: "That's your business." ” "Oh, not all at once."
Ran Min immediately showed a happy smile and said, "When the king says this, the minister has a score in his heart." ” Liu Yan and the central officials attached great importance to whether Ran Min was willing to order the newly incorporated people to transfer to the south, which was a matter of attitude and mentality, and Ran Min's acceptance of the order was more important than anything else.
Xun Xian, who had been standing on the side to record, listened with uncontrollable envy of Ran Min.
No, he was envious of Liu Yan's attitude towards Ran Min, the king was willing to talk casually with his ministers, especially the generals who commanded the army, and he could only explain it by maintenance in addition to liking.
People south of the Yangtze River have never had a good impression of Ran Min, and people in the Central Plains have a more polarized attitude towards Ran Min.
The so-called polarization is to worship to the extreme and disgust to the limit, and the distinction is whether it has been taken care of by Ran Min and whether it has been suppressed.
The conversation between Liu Yan and Ran Min just set the tone, and there will be Zuo Prime Minister Ji Chang to work out the details with Ran Min later.
Ran Min left the royal tent and went straight to the tent belonging to Ji Chang.
Outside the tent, he saw people coming and going, and when he entered, he saw that there were all kinds of papers.
When the king went out on patrol, he and the team that governed the country also went out, and the local recitals were of course sent to the office.
At present, paper has not been widely used, most of them are wooden calf brands and bamboo slips, and a small amount of silk cloth is used, resulting in Ji Chang's tent is really full of things.
Ji Chang saw Ran Min stop the workstation and get up, saluted each other and sat down.
Prime Minister Zuo was in charge of the military, and Ji Chang did not cut to the chase at the first time, but personally listened to the war process against Shijie Zhao from Ran Min.
When it comes to military affairs, Ran Min has a clear mind and concise language, and it didn't take long to make the situation clear, and finally brought up the business himself: "The king wants the newly formed troops to be reorganized in the south, and Min means that according to actual needs, the troops that cannot be used will be transferred to the south first, and they will be dispatched in batches. ” Ji Chang is very formulaic and approves.
At present, the Northern Expeditionary Corps has a very large theater of operations, more than 900 miles from west to east, from Youzhou in the easternmost part to Bingzhou in the west, and the main battle line is Shangdang County in Bingzhou and Fanyang County in Youzhou.
"Murong Xianbei handed over to Youzhou from Shijie, and the temporary action is not big."
Ji Chang said some movements at the national level, and the description was not detailed, mainly to mention that Murong Yanguo also had the intention of a truce, and then the topic changed, and he asked very suddenly: "The source of troops collected by General Zhengbei, those heroes and families still maintain control over the armed forces" Ran Min was very sensitive, his eyes were sharp, his face was relatively stiff, and he responded in a dull voice: "Hmm" Dividing line The previous chapter was the Rebellion of the Green Forest, and my mind was confused and wrote the Rebellion of the Yellow Nest
