I am a pitiful and weak woman.

That night, the south gate of Yanjing City was opened silently. Gao Yi, who had been ordered to wait outside the city, looked at Zhu Caicai who was smiling in front of him.

"General Gao, thank you for fulfilling your mission! As instructed by my lady, you will control the South Gate tonight. The Taixiang Army will gradually withdraw from Yanjing from here."

Gao Yi was very curious and asked about the situation of the two generals!

Zhu Caicai laughed out loud and described in vivid detail the meeting between the three people this afternoon.

Gao Yi looked at the businessman in front of him with almost demented eyes!

With just a few words, General Taixiang, the only armed force in Yanjing City, was forced to resign and retire! It was really unbelievable!

Zhu Caicai did not take credit for himself, but explained with admiration, "General Gao, I was also following Madam's instructions. At first, I thought it was all a pipe dream! But unexpectedly, Madam predicted everything correctly. Madam calls this psychological warfare!"

Gao Yi didn't understand what psychological warfare was, but there was one sentence that he was very familiar with!

Conquer the enemy without fighting!

Liu Buqi would rather take the risk and recall Wang Changling who was stationed at the Great Wall. It seemed that he just accompanied her and posed in front of the city for a whole morning!

But in fact, for the entire Yanjing, it became the last straw that broke the psychological defense line of the defenders!

Wang Changling's appearance here illustrates two issues.

First, there is no war on the Great Wall, at least no war in recent days!

Second, the defenders in the city must not mobilize the civilians to defend the city, and they must even allocate a considerable portion of their forces to prevent civil unrest!

Under the pressure from all sides, external and internal troubles, Zhu Caicai offers the only way to survive! I just want to ask you, will you leave?

If a foreign invader came, the two generals could still fight to the death! But this internal strife, and the newly appointed governor of Youzhou was standing outside the city gate!

Even if the fish dies and the net is broken, it will still be infamous for eternity! It is better to jump out of this quagmire of Youzhou!

Everything is going smoothly and naturally! The next thing will be much easier!

General Taiping, under Gao Yi's "escort", entered Taiping alone. The defenders in the city then stationed outside the city, and Taiping Prefecture completely fell under the command of the Youzhou Commander-in-Chief!

Afterwards, tens of thousands of Taiping Prefecture "reinforcements" who were well fed and well-fed at the Great Wall were also disarmed and sent back!

General Taiping brought more than 30,000 former Taiping Prefecture soldiers who were willing to leave Youzhou and follow him to "conquer the world", and entered Yuzhou with a large amount of food, heading straight for the battlefield where the imperial court and Guannei Hou were confronting each other!

As for General Taixiang, he could only take his trusted guards and his family and property that were sent back, and enter Shandong through Tai'an Prefecture. From then on, he lived in hiding and no longer cared about worldly affairs.

In short, when the two imperial envoys appointed by the court, the Governor of Youzhou and the Supervisor of Youzhou, opened their eyes in the morning, they saw the city of Yanjing which had changed hands again!

Youzhou's gateways to the interior, Tai'an, Taixiang and Taiping prefectures, have now been taken back, and the benefits of winning without bloodshed have been fully demonstrated!

A large number of craftsmen in Taixiang Mansion made a smooth transition. For them, it was just a matter of changing their immediate boss!

Taiping Prefecture served as Youzhou's "reserve force." Although 30,000 veterans had left at once, there were still quite a few combat-capable soldiers left.

After Gao Yi carefully selected a part of the troops and transferred them to the Great Wall garrison, the Taiping Army smoothly transitioned to the Youzhou Army!

Military matters were easy to handle, but the civil affairs and livelihood issues were really making Liu Buqi extremely anxious!

With no one available, the disadvantages of suddenly expanding territory began to appear!

After much deliberation, Liu Buqi directly gathered together the low-level civil servants who were brought by the two imperial envoys to help control Youzhou!

After a brief screening, they were formally appointed to their positions and sent to Yanjing and the Great Wall respectively.

Officials who were born and raised in Youzhou were directly promoted to a higher rank after taking office in the capital, and were sent to serve in Taiping and Taixiang prefectures!

They had firmly grasped the gates of Youzhou, with 300,000 Youzhou troops inside and the Lu family controlling the endless supply of food and grass from Tai'an outside!

It can be said that Youzhou has become a de facto independent kingdom!

Liu Buqi and Zhu Caicai were so busy that they didn't remember until two days later that there were two imperial envoys who had been left aside!

After all, these two imperial envoys have been appointed as officials in Youzhou. It would be difficult to deal with or expel them rashly while Yue Lingxi is still in the capital!

We cannot be too harsh in criticizing the emperor, or else the imperial court, especially Crown Prince Yue Chengqiu, will lose all face.

We can't let them wander around in Youzhou. After all, they are sent by the imperial court. Even if they do nothing, it means that the imperial court has intervened in Youzhou!

This topic must not be opened!

After racking his brains, Liu Buqi finally came up with a relatively safe and foolproof plan.

Zhu Caicai then followed the order and respectfully invited the two adults into the commander-in-chief's residence!

Looking at the young woman who was sitting upright on the commander-in-chief's chair with her eyes closed and dozing.

The new Inspector of Youzhou wanted to yell at this audacious woman for violating the rules, but the words just wouldn't come out!

Two veteran generals who had been active in Youzhou for more than ten years, and two old ministers who were influential in the court, were played around in the palm of the hands of the Youzhou fox spirit!

In just over ten days, not only were the two major gateways of Youzhou lost, but the two of them became lambs on the chopping board to be slaughtered!

He let out a long sigh. This kind of power struggle and game between several bigwigs was not something a small person like him was interested in sacrificing his life for.

"Madam Liu is renowned, dominating the beauty lists. Her reputation is truly well-deserved! I wonder what you plan to do with us today?"

In fact, Liu Buqi was also afraid that these two people would become depressed and really kill her by banging her head against the wall!

After all, before traveling through time, I had read and heard a lot about the "civil servants' integrity of sacrificing their lives for justice even in the enemy camp"!

If you really meet one and become a "historical background board" that indirectly enhances someone else's reputation, it would be a waste of time and effort!

The so-called closing of eyes and pretending to sleep is not to "play deep", but to avoid "stimulating" the fragile nerves of the literati!

Fortunately! This inspector was the first to speak, and the other governor seemed to be listening attentively. If there is something to talk about, then there will be no death. This is a good thing!

"Your Excellency is exaggerating! I am just a pitiful, helpless, and powerless woman! How dare you punish an official appointed by the imperial court?"

If Liu Buqi, who is both talented and beautiful, now commands a large army and is supported by Youzhou, is considered a weak woman, then there are probably no true heroes in the world!

But this sentence really disrupted the "negotiation rhythm" of the two adults. How could two grown men make a big deal out of something when someone was talking about a weak woman?

Sometimes women’s advantage lies in their ability to be unreasonable or not!

It really makes people feel embarrassed that they have the power but nowhere to use it, and the only thing left is the helplessness of "wanting to refuse but also to accept"!

The two imperial envoys looked at each other in silence, with no choice but to admit defeat!

Although being defeated by a woman is not pleasant, it doesn't seem so unacceptable compared to losing a verbal battle with a woman and becoming a laughing stock among the people!

Forget it, just follow the arrangements. Why make yourself unhappy and ruin your reputation?
