Ouyang Shuo turned around and handed it over to the clerk, Bai Nanpu, who asked him to transfer it to the Construction Department, and urged the Construction Department to hurry up and build. According to the plan, the Confucian Temple and The Wu Temple will be built on the left and right sides of the Huangdi Temple. As for the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower, they will be built in front of Xuanwu Gate, at the southernmost end of the commercial street, on the banks of the inner city river, opposite to each other on the east and west sides.

**********
On August 26th, after two months of construction, the Southwest University Hall was finally officially completed. Ouyang Shuo led a group of officials, excitedly Participated vigorously in the unveiling ceremony of the Southwest University Hall.
Compared with Ouyang Shuo’s original idea, under Xu Shuda’s proposal, the base building of the second-level county seat——Chess Academy, was also merged into the Southwest University Hall and became the fourth building of the Southwest University Hall. At the inauguration ceremony
,
Ouyang
Shuo pointed out that the school motto of the Southwest University is “inclusiveness, open to all rivers”.
Accompanied by Xu Shuda, he went to visit Jiang Shang.
After Fan Zhongyan and Xu Shuda’s hard work, Jiang Shang finally agreed to live in seclusion in the Southwest University Hall, and at the same time rejected Xu Shuda’s proposal of the title of honorary dean of the School of Economics. In
early autumn, the campus The trees are shady and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. In the northwest corner of Southwest University Hall, there is a small artificial lake named Moon Lake. The water of the lake is drawn from the inner city river separated by a wall. There are lotus flowers in the lake. Falling Star Island, Jiang Shang lived in seclusion on this small island.
Falling Star Island does not have a water promenade connecting it to the outside world, and the island can only be reached by light boat.
On the side of the light boat, the water is rippling, and the lotus flowers are in full bloom. Through the clear lake water, you can also see fish swimming in the water.
The sky was drizzling, and the water droplets hit the lotus leaves, making a pattering sound.
Jiang Shang is already an old man in his eighties. In order to take care of his daily life, the Department of Culture and Education specially arranged two servants to serve around him.
Two servants assisted Jiang Shang to reclaim vegetable fields on Falling Star Island, grow vegetables and fruits, and raise chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry.
Moon Lake is the best habitat for ducks and geese.
After Ouyang Shuo landed, he
looked around and saw that the island was very simple and elegant, with no carved railings or painted buildings, nor any precious flowers and trees.
A row of low thatched huts stands in the center of the island; in front of the thatched huts, a small courtyard is surrounded by fences, and a cage of vegetable fields has been reclaimed in the open space, some of which have even grown new shoots.
Next to the small courtyard is a bamboo forest, verdant and verdant.
A gust of wind blew by, and the bamboo forest made a rustling sound.
On the other side of the yard is a well.
Next to the well, there is a stone.
The stone is no more than half a meter high, in the shape of a couch, and the surface is extremely smooth.
According to the servant, the grandfather often leaned on the stone to read.
Guided by the servants, Ouyang Shuo, holding an oil-paper umbrella, walked through the small courtyard of the hut and came to the back mountain. A forest path paved with pebbles meanders into the distance, and along the pebble path, he came to the edge of the lake. the other side.
On the shore of the lake, Jiang Shang was wearing a coir raincoat and an old straw hat, holding a fishing rod and fishing by the lake, but the fish beside him were empty and he caught nothing.
Ouyang Shuo wondered, this old man is not playing tricks like “Jiang Taigong takes the bait when he fishes” again.
“Grandpa, Junhou came to visit you.” Xu Shuda said.
Unmoved by Jiang Shang, he turned around and made a silence gesture towards Xu Shuda, signaling Xu Shuda not to scare away the fish he was about to take.
Xu Shuda had no choice but to stay by Junhou’s side and wait patiently.
The servant was sensible, brought a small stool, and invited the gentleman to sit down.
This waited for the whole morning, seeing the rain was getting heavier, Jiang Shang was still unmoved, without saying a word, the fishing rod he was holding, he hadn’t seen him changing the bait all morning.
Ouyang Shuo was helpless, knowing that Jiang Shang was determined to return to hermitage, so he had no choice but to leave.
“Grandpa, take the liberty to visit. Wuyi will leave now, and I will visit you next time.”
Just as Ouyang Shuo turned to leave, Jiang Shang suddenly said in the distance, “Your Majesty, during the Battle of Muye, King Wu was killed by you.” Is it right?”
Ouyang Shuo paused in his heart, and said calmly, “Why did the grandpa say that?”
“When I came back, I saw the prince’s personal guards all riding horses. The strange thing is that the intercepted Isn’t it strange that Junhou’s personal guards didn’t stay with Junhou at that time? The only explanation is that the personal guards were sent by you, Junhou, to intercept King Wu.” Jiang Shang’s insight is frightening.
Now that he was found out, Ouyang Shuo was calm, looked at Jiang Shang in the distance, and said flatly: “Yes, King Wu has already been killed by his personal guards, and his head was sent to Emperor Xin of Shang. This Marquis also has nothing to say, so I bid farewell!” From this moment on, Ouyang Shuo completely gave up the idea of asking Jiang Shang to become an official.
He is the lord and Marquis of Lianzhou, and he only acts according to his own heart, and there is no need to do it for one; “Hey!” Jiang Shang sighed from behind.
************
On August 28th, under the mediation of Director of Internal Affairs Tian Wenjing, the Shanman Tribe finally agreed to the conditions proposed by Ouyang Shuo, sending 1,000 elite fighters down the mountain to join the To the army of Shanhai County.
One thousand mountain barbarians were organized into the first and second battalions of the third brigade of the first division, and the battalions were being filled by soldiers elected by the mountain barbarians.
As soon as the third brigade was formed, under the leadership of brigade commander Elai, it began to attack the rogues in the east of the territory, trying to wipe them all out within a week.
At this time, the bandit suppression operation in the west was coming to an end, including some player territories bordering Shanhai County, which were also resolutely wiped out.
The soldiers of the First Brigade of the First Division pointed directly at Yongye Town of the Tiandao League.
The lord of Yongye Town, black cloak, turned pale with fright, and asked the Tiandao League for help in a panic, asking allies to send troops to assist in the defense of the territory and jointly resist the attack of Shanhai County.
After receiving the request for help from the black cloak, under the call of the leader Ba Dao and Xiaofeng Canyue, except for Guangshui Town itself, other allies sent reinforcements one after another.
Ba Dao and Xiaofeng Canyue each brought 500 troops, Gushan Town and Yishui Town each brought 300 soldiers, plus Yongye Town’s own troops, the total strength reached 2,100.
Just when the Tiandao League was mobilizing and determined to fight Shanhai County in Yongye Town, Shi Wansui suddenly received an order to retreat, and in desperation he led the first brigade back to the station.
With the expansion of the territory, the position of the camp in the west of the city also continued to advance westward.
As the bandit camp in the west was wiped out, the camp in the west of the city moved west again, and stationed the camp on a hillside less than ten kilometers away from the edge of the territory.
Ouyang Shuo chose to retreat, naturally he had his own considerations.
If you choose this time for a decisive battle, the morale of the Tiandao League is in full swing, and they are united as one. The two leaders, Ba Dao and Xiaofeng Wanyue, are trying to use a victory to gather the centripetal force of the alliance.
With only the strength of the first brigade, and without enough siege equipment, it is not easy to take down Yongye Town, which has already built a city wall.
Even if they win, the casualties will be heavy, which is not in line with Ouyang Shuo’s strategy.
On the contrary, if they chose to encircle rather than attack, the Tiandao League would not dare to take the initiative to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the first brigade.
Over time, the reinforcements of the Heavenly Knife Alliance will definitely not be able to stay here for a long time.
If things go on like this, people must be panicked.
Now the time is not yet ripe, Ouyang Shuo is waiting, he is waiting for the combat readiness department to create enough ladders, waiting for the third brigade to finish sweeping up the rogues in the east and complete the recruit trial.
After suppressing the bandits, Ouyang Shuo’s main goal is still to attack the bandits’ village, help the bandits solve their serious problems, and guide more tribes of the bandits to settle down the mountain.
On August 29th, Yongye Town.
“Shanhai County retreats, what should we do?” The lord of Gushan Town took the stage to pay homage to the general who spoke.
Ruoshui Sanqian, the lord of Yishui Town, was always uneasy. Her territory was not far from the east of Shanhai County. She was worried about being attacked by Shanhai County, so she said decisively: “Since the other party has retreated, we should go back.
” The black cloak turned pale with shock, “Once you leave, what should we do if Shanhai County strikes again? I’m sure this must be a conspiracy by Qi Yue Wuyi.
” Why don’t you just go out of the city and fight the enemy?” It was the most impatient to go up to the stage to pay respects to the general, and always felt that staying in the city like this was too useless.
Ba Dao frowned, looked at Xiao Feng Wan Yue opposite, and asked: “What do you think?
” The heavy infantry is the army on the opposite side.” Xiaofeng Canyue said helplessly.
Ba Dao nodded, and UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com said solemnly: “You are right. But the concerns of going on stage to pay homage to the general are also reasonable. If you sit and wait for death, you can only be defeated by Shanhai County in the end.”
“In this case, we can only invite foreign aid ” Xiaofeng Canyue’s face was gloomy, “Yanhuang League has always been at odds with Shanhai League, if Dichen and the others can be invited, Shanhai County is nothing to worry about.”
Ba Dao was startled, and spit out: “No, you are They are luring wolves into the house. Dichen and the others are not philanthropists, it is easy to ask gods and difficult to send them away, so you are not afraid that they will occupy the magpie’s nest?”
“I think it’s wrong too.” Ruoshui Sanqian and the stage obeisance general followed suit.
No one noticed, but the black cloak beside him had an inexplicable expression, and a malicious light flashed in his eyes.
He was originally a ruthless person, and now his territory was at stake, even if it was to lure wolves into his house, he would not hesitate to do so.
The black cloak has already decided that if the alliance disagrees, he will contact Di Chen alone.
Xiaofeng Canyue looked frustrated, “This won’t work, and that won’t work either. Tell me, Ba Dao, what should I do, anyway, I have nothing to do.” For
a while, the atmosphere was a little dull.
