Ba County is a major county in the middle of Shu, with fourteen counties under its jurisdiction. Its population is not the largest in Shu, but it covers a very wide area, almost spanning half of Yizhou, Langzhong, Jiameng, Zitong, and Baishui, all of which belong to Ba County.

Ye Zhao wanted to plot against the three dangerous passes of Ba County, Baishui, Jiameng and Zitong. Of course, if these three passes were broken, Ye Zhao would never care about Ba County. Instead, he directly led the Shu army and occupied the Shu central plain first. Most of the name of the Tianfu Kingdom was obtained by this plain.

But how to break these three levels, Ye Zhao is still planning every time. If he suddenly attacks, he can break one, but the other two levels will inevitably strengthen his defense. If he wants to break it, he will have to attack hard.

And strong attack is the method Ye Zhao least wants to use. Once a strong attack is made, no matter whether it can be broken or not, a large number of casualties are inevitable. Just look at Hulao Pass. Even if Ye Zhao commands and the military orders can be fully implemented, Ye Zhao once estimated that 50,000 people cannot be captured if they die in a Hulao Pass.

As for the coalition military's approach to using civilians to consume the opponent's spirit, Ye Zhao really couldn't do it. If it weren't for this, there wouldn't be the plague that followed. Although many people died, Ye Zhao only gave it one word: It's time!

Perhaps in the eyes of Yuan Shao and others, those civil servants are just a string of numbers, but how is that different from driving the people to attack the city?

There is no hurry to break the three passes. Dong Zhuo's edict sent to Shuzhong was intercepted by Ye Zhao. If he sent it again, he would have to detour Jingzhou and go around in a big circle. He would not be able to send it in less than half a year. After being passive for so long, it should be time to take the initiative. Ye Zhao asked Xi Zhicai to discuss this matter with the soldiers first. Anyway, he has the name now, so the next step is to deploy the three passes. As long as he wins the three passes, the initiative will be completely in Ye Zhao's hands.

As a large number of immigrants were continuously resettled, batches of grain and grass were also sent down, Hanzhong gradually returned to stability. Some people began to miss homesickness after arriving in Hanzhong. Now people have been resettled. Not to mention that Ye Zhao has already issued the lock order, even if there is no lock, the road is not the only way for them to bear. What's more, from Hanzhong to Nanyang, the mountains and rivers are high and far, and it is inevitable that some stupid thieves will encounter robbery. Moreover, Ye Zhao cannot provide food and accommodation when he was Tathagata. In order to migrate, almost all the food and grass raised in Nanyang were spent on the road. Ye Zhao could not move out the granary in Hanzhong and send them back.

What's more, Hanzhong's current policies really sound quite attractive. Not to mention that only 20% of the taxes will be paid in three years, even if it is 30% of the taxes now, it is better than Nanyang or most areas in the entire Han Dynasty.

After some sorting, Hanzhong gradually returned to peace.

Man Chong handles the matter in Hanzhong. In the past two years, Man Chong has also trained a group of officials in Hanzhong to help him manage government affairs. Although a large number of people have suddenly poured in, which has increased the administrative burden a lot, it is enough to deal with it.

Huang Shao officially left the prefect's palace and took on the affairs of the Shengong Camp alone. This Shengong Camp seemed to be a idle position, but only Ye Zhao knew the significance of the Shengong Camp to him.

...

Ye Zhao's General's Mansion is located in the city, and in front of the gate is a main street that runs east and west across Nanzheng. Because of the cement, the General's Mansion is twice as tall as an ordinary attic. A platform is also specially built on the main building of the mansion. Standing on the platform, you can not only overlook the entire Nanzheng, but also see the scenery outside the city wall.

The heights are so cold, Ye Zhao always likes to stay alone on this seven-meter-high platform, away from the hustle and bustle, but the behavior of the people in the city can be seen in full view. Standing here can always give people a sense of tranquility, allowing his thoughts to concentrate on thinking about problems.

Liu Wei hugged Xiao Ye Zheng and appeared behind Ye Zhao with Xin'er. Looking at Ye Zhao with his hands behind his back and looking down at the city, even the once willful princess, whenever he saw Ye Zhao in this state, he would always feel an unspeakable sense of awe.

The afterglow of the setting sun fell on Ye Zhao, as if a layer of gold edge was crossed for him. It was clearly close to him, but it made people feel out of reach.

Since Ye Zhao returned to Hanzhong this time, he always felt a sense of majesty, especially when he stood here, the majesty would be much heavier. Even Liu Hong, as the emperor and holding the power of the world, had never let Liu Wei feel this way.

This is probably related to the environment in which he is in. In Luoyang, when various forces were competing, Ye Zhao could only be regarded as a small person who could not be even smaller. He survived in the cracks and was cautious every step. It was not until Liu Hong died of illness that Ye Zhao had enough power to jump from the position of a chess piece to become a chess player.

After that, the princes attacked Dong. As the highest official title among the princes, even Yuan Shao could not make him bow. His introverted momentum gradually relaxed and his arbitrary decision-makers were naturally formed.

"Why is Madam coming?" Ye Zhao withdrew his gaze from the distance, took off the sable fur on his shoulder, walked to Liu Wei a few steps, and naturally covered the sable fur on Liu Wei's shoulder: "The wind is strong, the lady is weak shortly after giving birth, so don't come here."

The little baby in his arms babbling and stretched out his chubby little hands towards Ye Zhao. Ye Zhao picked him up and walked into the attic and smiled.

"The dinner has been done. Seeing that my husband has been staying here, I was worried. Let's take a look at it." Liu Wei followed Ye Zhao with a smile.

Although Ye Zhao said that she could ask about some political affairs, it was precisely because Ye Zhao put down this sentence that Liu Wei lost interest after being excited for a few days.

She was already erect, and it could be said that she was very popular for three minutes, especially as she watched her son grow up day by day, her heart gradually became more and more focused on her son.

"Why do you always like to come here?" Liu Wei turned around and looked at the place called the rooftop by Ye Zhao. Apart from being tall, she was neither majestic nor ferocious. She couldn't understand why Ye Zhao always liked to stay there.

"I don't know, maybe it's for that peace." Ye Zhao shook his head. It was difficult to explain. What's important is not the structure of the rooftop, but the feeling that is above all sentient beings, which makes him clear and easier to think about problems. However, this kind of experience is difficult to explain clearly.

"Today, General Guan Hai sent the troops to Zhuang Yong to bring them. Will they be as strict as Hongchang and the others' training?" The group sat on the dining table and the whole family sat together to eat. This was the rule set by Ye Zhao. Although it was contrary to the current etiquette and law, people could not care about how they wanted to eat when they were to live in a closed door. Liu Wei and Xiner were obviously used to this method, and they did not feel strange, but felt much warmer.

Xin'er also looked at Ye Zhao curiously when she heard this. Even if there is no Ye Zhao's supervision, she will practice diligently every day. As the guardian of the female family in the family, she is naturally at ease. But as both women, the terrifying training intensity of Nei Fan Camp made Liu Wei and Xin'er feel distressed. After all, they are all women, why bother to make things difficult for themselves?

"Now it's just training to eliminate some unqualified people. When the spring of next year is about to start next year, the husband will train them in person!" Ye Zhao shook his head. He did not plan to treat these people as guards. He would not use them for training strong soldiers instead of using them instead of using them. This would be a bit extravagant: "Next year, these people will use them."

"Husband... are you going to use troops against the emperor's uncle?" Liu Wei's eyes dimmed when she heard this. As the princess of the Han family, what Liu Wei wanted to see the least was the conquest between her husband and the Han family.

Xin'er, who was standing beside her, bowed her head obediently and sipped in porridge. She would rather think that she didn't exist in this kind of thing.

"This battle is inevitable." Ye Zhao felt abrupt and looked at Liu Wei apologetically and said, "Don't worry, madam, you will be responsible for your husband."

"But the old emperor holds the military and political power of Yizhou, and his husband only has one county in Hanzhong, so I am afraid..." Liu Wei looked at Ye Zhao worriedly. She didn't understand military affairs, but Hanzhong was only a county, while Liu Yan occupied Yizhou. Judging from the power, Ye Zhao was completely defeated, so naturally he could not help but worry about Ye Zhao.

"There are many factors in the theory of victory or defeat, not just these." Ye Zhao smiled and said, "For my husband, I have never lost a battle in this life. Although the old emperor is powerful, he may not be able to defeat me."

"I just hope my husband can return safely." Liu Wei said worriedly: "As for the old emperor... if you don't have to, your husband doesn't have to worry about me."

Ye Zhao nodded silently and did not talk about this topic again. He is now worried about the three levels of things. Now he is eating at home. He doesn't want to bring these things to his home, so his brain needs rest.

After dinner, Ye Zhao accompanied his two beautiful wives for a walk in the mansion. It was not until the sky was completely dark before returning to the room to rest. After arranging Ye Zheng, he was bound to have a lot of confusion.

Ye Zhao is now in his prime, with a strong body and energy. In addition, he meets again after a long separation, so naturally there is thunder and fire in the sky, and the spring scenery is boundless.

After Yunkong stopped the rain, Liu Wei squeezed her soft body into Ye Zhao's arms and said softly in a nasal voice exhausted, "Husband..."

"Um?"

"I... want to see the Ten Thousand Years Lantern again." Liu Wei held Ye Zhao's big hand, and said with a little blur in her eyes.

"Ten Thousand Years Lamp?" Ye Zhao was slightly stunned. It seemed that it had happened a long time ago. If it weren't for Liu Wei's mention, Ye Zhao would have forgotten it long ago. However, as Liu Wei mentioned this, Ye Zhao was slightly stunned, and a light of inspiration flashed in his mind.

"Husband, what's wrong with you?" Liu Wei turned her head and looked at Ye Zhao who was stunned in confusion.
