Yu Yi has been managing his own forces for a long time, but it is more of a subconscious move, and there is no strong motivation or clear goal.

However, since Wang Shou joined his disciples last year, Yu Yi's intentions have become obvious, and he has begun to deliberately strengthen his own deployment, especially in military strength. And Wang Shou's allegiance did make Yu Yi's private army have a change from quantity to quality.

The more turbulent the era, the easier it is for the people to be coerced and bewitched, but with the development of border affairs, Liyang has turned into an inner town, and even the countryside is lacking in strong beams to recruit.

The greatest help that Wang Shou brought to Yu Yi was not his own troops and assets, but a kind of armed channel for the exile marshals that he represented, and it was through Wang Shou that Yu Yi was able to communicate with these people. Before that, in the eyes of those villagers, Yu Yi was just a balmster who got the shade of his family, and he was not worth serving.

Although there are not too many large-scale township tyrants around Liyang, there are always some heroes who are not willing to die in the countryside and want to fight again, and Yu Yi's solicitation provides them with a very rare opportunity.

And Yu Yi is not trying to build a strong private army, he just needs to be able to play a key role at a critical moment. Besides, with his financial resources, he can't afford to raise too many private troops, you must know that he was only ruthlessly looted by Shen Chong at the end of last year.

In the past year, the number of Yu Yi's private soldiers has also surged, and there are more than 2,000 of them who can be called the choice of elite soldiers with combat experience alone. If you add the soldiers hidden in the country manor, the total number of troops he has has reached 5,000.

Of course, this number, whether compared with the Sixth Army of the Central Guards or the strength of the military towns in various places, is not worth mentioning. But this is completely complete, and it belongs to Yu Yi's own forces, and even his brothers can't interfere.

After forming such a large-scale private army, Yu Yi realized the value of money and food. He is in Liyang, and the income he can obtain is the number of acres of tuntian organized by the commercial tax and the second brother Yu Yi who sat here before, and these incomes must be handed over to Taichung and transported to Jingzhou, and what he can intercept is also limited.

Therefore, although the tribe was organized, there were only about 2,000 people who could really be armed. But even so, Yu Yi is overstretched, tearing down the east wall to make up the west wall. It is precisely because of this that when he eliminated part of the ordnance to aid Wang Yun, he had to sell it at a clear price, which was really not generous.

Wang Shou obtained a part of the military funds outside the country through plunder, which can be regarded as solving Yu Yi's urgent need, and can also make Tainei and the Shen family fall into anxiety, which can be said to be counted in one fell swoop.

But soon, Yu Yi realized that he was happy too soon. Although this part of the goods was successfully transported to Liyang, it still needs to be sold into money before it can be converted into food and ordnance.

The consequence of Shen Chong's anger was to carry out a comprehensive blockade of Liyang, and Hefei, Jiangxia, and Poyang, Jiangzhou, all of which were areas that the Shen family could influence. All localities have received orders to carry out a comprehensive embargo against Liyang, and there are strong beams from all walks of life flooding the business routes, and Dafan finds that it is close to the area where Liyang is located, that is, it is directly looting and looting!

Of course, whether this kind of embargo can be effectively implemented is still between the two sides, and there are many wealthy clans in the countryside, and there are always some people who are greedy for money and forget their lives. As long as you have money, you don't have to worry about not being able to buy goods.

But the problem is that Shen Chong put on such a posture, even if someone dares to ignore Shen's attitude and choose to continue trading with Yu Yi, this will in turn become the reason for those people to ask for a sky-high price. After all, in the current situation, trading with Liyang itself is an extremely dangerous thing, and there are too few people who dare to do it.

As a result, Yu Yi was completely in a predicament. Although Wang Shouqi brought back goods worth tens of thousands of dollars, if this part of the goods wanted to be sold, they would have to be exploited once, and the price shrank sharply. And then use this money to buy grain and grass and other urgently needed materials, and face the price is several times high.

In this way, the batch of goods transported back from Jiangdong not only did not make Yu Yi's situation better, but the price paid for it was so high that Yu Yi did not dare to think deeply. Liyang's finances were so close to collapse that Yu Yi had to patrol the camp several times a day, lest the soldiers mutinied because of lack of use.

In the past New Year, Yu Yi had a very anxious time. And after the New Year, the situation has not changed.

Although the news from the capital indicated that his and Wang Yunzhi's plan was indeed effective, greatly weakening the Shen clan's troops left in the vicinity of, the transferred part of the troops did not escort the Wu people back to their hometowns as they expected. Yu Yi suspected that most of them had been scattered by Shen Chong around Liyang in order to maintain the raiding blockade against him.

As the situation continued to deteriorate, gradually even Wang Shouqi and other confidants lost confidence. According to this situation, unless they directly cross the river and continue to plunder and replenish their use, there is no need for Taichung or others to do anything, and they themselves will collapse and disperse.

So recently, these people have frequently asked when it will be launched, and Yu Yi really can't come up with an accurate time when he faces this problem. With his own current strength, not to mention copying Su Jun's previous actions, he was afraid that before he could get close to Stone City, he would be defeated by the guards who rushed over after hearing the news.

"Wang Shenyou's inner anxiety is far greater than mine, with the opportunity to be small and big, the opportunity has not yet arrived, and you still need to be patient."

In the face of the anxious inquiries of the subordinates again and again, Yu Yi could only answer with this, without the cooperation of Neiying, it would be difficult for his strength to reach Gyeonggi directly.

A few days after the New Year, the opportunity that Yu Yi had been waiting for had not yet arrived, but he first ushered in his nephew Yu Xi. Yu Xi did not arrive directly in Liyang, but stopped at the mouth of the water and sent someone to invite him to meet.

"Dawn is deceiving me, it seems that the second brother sent him here this time."

After receiving the report from his family, Yu Yi couldn't help but sigh, he didn't know what the second brother's mind had always been, and he had already prepared to this point, and his mind could be described as firm, and it was no longer just a few words to persuade him to turn back.

"No matter who Dawn is ordered by, there is no reason for the elders to greet the juniors, if he wants to see me, just go straight to the town to meet him. Although I have a strong mind in my heart, how can I harm the blood of my relatives in the court. ”

Yu Yi told his family again, and Yu Xi had no choice but to enter the town to see him. And with him, there is also Wang Tian.

Wang Tian naturally didn't come to visit Liyang, and he didn't have any friendship with Yu Yi. The reason why he followed Yu Xi was that the ban along the river was serious, and he had no correspondence with him, so it was difficult to pass.

As soon as he arrived in Liyang, Wang Tian asked Yu Yi to help prepare a car and boat to take him on a ride, his father was critically ill, and he really had no time to stay. Yu Yi did not make any difficulties for this, and ordered some of his subordinates to escort Wang Tian across the river.

When the uncle and nephew were facing each other, Yu Xi was still considering his words, and Yu Yi said: "What do you mean by coming here, I also know." If there are any differences and disputes between the parents, it is useless to embarrass your junior. No matter what your second father tells you, you will keep it in your womb first, and you will not deal with the affairs in front of you, and I will not have time to distract myself from the rest. ”

"Uncle, why are you bothered? My second father taught me ......"

Yu Xi was already embarrassed when he heard this, and wanted to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Yu Yi waving his hand.

"Could it be that you have also seen with your second father, and think that I am seeking to divide what is wrong, and I must not succeed?"

After Yu Yi heard this, his face sank suddenly, and then he said solemnly: "Let's put it this way, I have to be like this because I have to turn against the Shen family." Right now, you and my father and son are private, and the secret words are not passed on to the six ears, I suspect that your father is harmed by the Shen family! So do you think that my family should continue to live with the Shen family? ”

"What ......"

When Yu Xi heard this, he was so shocked that he fell out of the seat, his face was full of disbelief, and he stared at Yu Yi: "Uncle's words, is there any evidence?" ”

"If I had evidence, would I press it to this day? When the Gyeonggi chaos happened, your father ran away, and Shen Weizhou and I followed each other, and the evil happened suddenly, even I was stunned on the spot, but Shen Weizhou seemed to have a plan, leading us to rush back to the dangerous place of Gyeonggi, and then all kinds of things seemed to be preset, and the Shen family also prospered in the world because of this chaos! ”

Yu Yi said this, and took a deep breath: "Naturally, I have no evidence to point directly at the Shen family, but when I think about the old years, I always feel a little strange. You may say that I slandered my relatives with adultery, but if your father had not died, the situation would never be what it is today! ”

"Shen and I, called goodwill, are actually bullying. Before, I was just a little resentful, and after a little trick, Shen Shiju restrained me with all his might. Now, he is even more encouraging the villagers to kill me here! Even if your second father can protect me, if I am willing to fight here, I will definitely hide in my private door in the coming year to survive a little. That being the case, I'd rather be heroic. ”

Hearing Yu Yi's words, Yu Xi was stunned on the spot, as a young man in his twenties who had been sheltered by his family for a long time, Yu Yi's words revealed these sinister information, he was really difficult to digest for a while, and many distracting thoughts came one after another, and even made him lose the ability to judge.

"Now that you're here, stay first. When this is done, it will be up to you, both inside and outside. ”

After Yu Yi said this, he got up and left the room, but when he was leaving, he told Yu Xi again: "I told you this before, remember not to leak it privately." Without my permission, even your second father cannot be told. ”

Whether the death of the eldest brother has anything to do with the Shen family, Yu Yi is not sure, and he doesn't care much about it.

Time has passed, and the most important thing is the present, the reason why he revisited the old matter was mainly because he planned to put forward a possible interpretation of such an old matter after the matter was completed in the future, so as to persuade the second brother to increase his support for him.

As for publicizing his malicious speculation, Yu Yi didn't dare to think about it, because that meant that he would completely tear his face with the Shen family and never die.

Wang Tian, who had crossed the border before, Yu Yi also knew that his return to his hometown would inevitably cause some trouble to Wang Yunzhi, but it was all a family affair of the royal family, and Yu Yi did not want to come forward to be a villain. He also hopes that Wang Tian's return to his hometown can in turn give Wang Yunzhi some urging and create an opportunity as soon as possible, otherwise he will not be able to support it here.

And Wang Yunzhi did not disappoint Yu Yi after all, and after Wang Tian crossed the border, the opportunity he had been waiting for finally came! (https:)
