I Built a Territory in Ancient Times - Chapter 168
Find him. Because, if a game of chess is played with Xie Yixiu, the winner can be decided with just a cup of tea, and there is absolutely no chance for him to win, so he can’t be fooled.
He also mentioned that Xie Yixiu would be merciful and not let him lose too ugly, but General Xie was speechless when he passed the Falcon Chungu League.
Xie Yixiu said: Fighting in chess is like fighting on the battlefield, and there is no such thing as mercy. In his eyes, the enemy must not be soft-handed. If he accidentally loses the whole game, otherwise he will risk his life to gamble, which is absolutely impossible in his expedition career. So you can play chess, but if you want him to show mercy to the sailors, you will find the wrong person.
Ming Yu was silent, and could only bear the consequences silently. Of course, the consequence was that the blow to him was too great. He obviously felt that his chess skills were not bad, but he was defeated by Xie Yixiu in three or two strokes. So, after playing a few times, he no longer dared to play chess with Xie Yixiu.
Ming Yu thought about it for a long time, and then felt bored. He threw the chess piece in his hand and threw it into the chess jar accurately.
“What? Not playing?” Xie Yixiu, who was beside him, asked when he saw that he was not in the mood to play chess. He watched Ming Yu’s every move, “Do you want me to accompany the prince in the next game?”
Ming Yu only learned to play chess when he was in the capital. A common problem for beginners is that people are addicted to vegetables. After the disaster was over, the royal family members and ministers in the court who could play chess in the capital made these people dare not mention the word chess when they saw him. Now there is no one to play chess with him along the way, which really bores him.
“No, no!” Ming Yu clapped his hands, raised his eyes to look at Xie Yixiu next to him, trying to change the subject, “It doesn’t make much sense to play chess, what are you looking at?”
He only played chess with Xie Yixiu when he was full and panicked, and now he finally realized the helplessness of others not wanting to play chess with him. It’s not at the same level at all, that is, looking for abuse.
Xie Yixiu closed the book, “It’s just some books on the Art of War and the Chronicles of War. Do you want to read it, my lord?”
Ming Yu shook his head again and again, “Don’t, these things, I only see the first two, let me read the travel notes, and I’m not interested at all.”
The corners of Xie Yixiu’s lips twitched slightly, “But looking at the behavior of the prince, it seems that he has his own set of rules for the art of war. As the prince said before, thirty-six strategies, the minister felt that it seemed very arrogant!
When Ming Yu was idle and bored before, he casually said that thirty-six strategies were the best strategy, and Xie Yixiu took it in his heart. These days, most of the Thirty-Six Stratagems have been rigged, intentionally or unintentionally.
The Thirty-Six Strategies of Sun Tzu’s Art of War is a theory of the art of war that is well known to all later generations. Ming Yu was very interested in this for a while, and he studied it for a while, but then he lost it all.
Naturally, there is no such person as Sun Wu in this era, so the tactics of war are also quite different, so Xie Yixiu will be interested in the thirty-six strategies that Ming Yu said.
Ming Yu waved his hand, and the vigilant ィ Li Ao Chong killed the wren and the ridge and the juncture, and almost finished what he had to say. Don’t expect me to have any opinions. I have told you all. I also heard what others have said. You can figure out the rest by yourself. You don’t need to tell me. “
“Yeah! I didn’t intend to mention this, but what the lord said, the minister has organized it into a book. Combined with the minister’s thoughts on fighting for many years, I will explain and outline it, and I would like to ask the lord for advice.” Xie Yixiu’s eyes filled with a smile.
Ming Yu is angry and funny. Are you kidding him? However, he didn’t plan to pick up the slack, and he directly slammed the scorpion and Tao Yi Cai. He didn’t know anything about the mess. General Xie’s experts in this area asked me for advice. “
“Does your lord really not understand?” Xie Yixiu asked sideways.
“I don’t understand, I’ve said it hundreds of times!” Ming Yu had a headache, Xie Yixiu was a fine person, but he didn’t believe his own words. Made him one head and two big.
Ming Yu really didn’t know much about the battle. What he said was only on paper. If you really want him to say something like advice, don’t you hurt anyone?
Second, the way Mingyu originally behaved was somewhat incompatible with others, and even a little strange. If he is more successful, he will point fingers at everything, and others will not be able to treat him as a monster?
Therefore, Ming Yu can’t admit that he is different.
“Well! I believe you.” Xie Yixiu suddenly approached Ming Yu and whispered in Ming Yu’s ear. He seemed to be expounding his thoughts, but there was an indescribable delusion in his voice.
Ming Yu couldn’t hear what he said seriously, Xie Yixiu’s breath filled his ears. His face flushed, he believed in you, and I asked so many times if he believed it?
Ming Yu felt that the air in the compartment was a little hot, and he rolled his eyes a few times, trying to change the subject, “By the way, the merchants outside have heard that they have a lot of opinions?”
Xie Yixiu had already sat upright at this time, looking at the blush on Ming Yu’s neck, inexplicable emotions swayed in his heart.
He tried his best to suppress his urges, nodded, and his always cold voice was a little hoarse and gloomy, “Yes, many people will retreat when they see the scene in Liangzhou.”
Ming Yu’s face sank, and he sighed: “It’s better now, when this king first entered Liangzhou, that scene…” He still has a shadow, “Everything is progressing too slowly, this king is too late. , Wouldn’t it be better if it were earlier, and earlier?”
Xie Yixiu knew what Ming Yu meant, he wanted to buy more time for development, and he wanted the people of Liangzhou to get out of their predicament as soon as possible. Ming Yu is anxious, because he is afraid that he is not doing enough. But Ming Yu has done a lot, and he has changed a lot of the status quo.
The bandits who once ran rampant in Liangzhou were wiped out, and Liangzhou was returned to peace. He trained militiamen, organized everyone to build tunnels, and let the people have the ability to protect themselves. Even if the barbarians invaded, the people would not suffer any losses. The once barbarian bandits looted and slaughtered innocent people can no longer happen.
Although the people of Liangzhou still have problems of food and clothing, compared to the precarious days, the people are already very grateful to Duan Wang who changed all this.
“My lord, it will get better. With the lord in Liangzhou, life will only get better day by day. Just like the caravan brought back by the lord today, isn’t it changing everything?”
Ming Yu smiled bitterly, “General Xie will comfort people.”
Xie Yixiu lightly held Ming Yu’s hand, with unshakable trust in his eyes, and emphasized: “It’s not a relief! It’s a fact, it’s a belief in the prince.”
The temperature of Xie Yixiu’s palm came from Ming Yu’s hand, warm and hot. He looked at Xie Yixiu, this person believed in himself so unconditionally, even he himself was not too sure, this person actually said that he believed in his own words. To have this person to accompany you in this life is still ill
“Thank you!” Ming Yu sighed, and the faith in his heart grew stronger.
Xie Yixiu retracted his hand, clenched his fist lightly, and coughed softly against his lips as if concealed, “Your Highness, why are you being so polite to me?”
The temperature in Ming Yu’s hand suddenly disappeared, and his heart was empty. He pursed his lips and lowered his eyebrows, turning back to the topic just now, “If you want to leave these people, you can stay as you like. This king believes that only those who really stay can bring benefits to Liangzhou.”
In the future, Liangzhou will attract businessmen from all over the world, and it has only just begun.
The author has something to say: Xie Yixiu: I just make soy sauce…

136 Chapter 136
There was a faint voice from outside the carriage, Ming Yu reached out to open the curtain and asked a question. Then an entourage replied that the eldest son of the Ma family had come.
Ma Jinyu came to look for him, thinking there was something wrong, Ming Yu thought about it for a while and then ordered someone to come over.
Not long after, Ma Jinyu got into the carriage, and seeing Ming Yu and Xie Yixiu were both there, he was no longer surprised. Along the way, the two have been together a lot and have a very good relationship.
Sometimes he also wonders, when did the fief and the border generals get so close? Looking at the relationship between the two, it seems to be extraordinary.
But later he also heard the news that General Xie risked his life to save the prince when he was on the frontier, which made sense. It is normal for the prince to treat General Xie as being different, which shows that the prince is a man of temperament, and it is rare to be benevolent and righteous.
So Ma Jinyu was not surprised at all, and hurriedly kowtowed to the two of them: “I have seen the prince, General Xie.”
Fortunately, Ming Yu’s carriage was big enough to seat four or five people at the same time, so it wouldn’t be crowded if there were more Ma Jinyu.
Ming Yu waved his hand, motioning him to sit down and talk.
Ma Jinyu sat well, and the prince was very good at talking. Ma Jinyu was respectful in front of Ming Yu, but he was not afraid of him. However, he glanced at the icy General Xie next to him and shivered involuntarily.
Perhaps because of his own sensitivity, Xie Yixiu has been fighting on the battlefield all the year round, and his body is so aggressive that Ma Jinyu didn’t even dare to take a second glance.
He couldn’t understand, Duan Wang was always friendly with Rong Yue like a spring breeze, but Xie Yixiu was taciturn and cold.
“Tell me, what’s the matter with this king?” Ming Yu asked.
The Ma family’s father and son are both human beings, and under normal circumstances, they would not go to Ming Yu’s side. Although their caravan was behind Ming Yu’s convoy, they were separated by a distance. But he is here now. I think he has something to discuss.
